We found that the most frequent haplotypes in the state of Tamaulipas include ten Native American, three European and one African haplotypes. Admixture estimates revealed that the main genetic components in the state of Tamaulipas are Native American (54.69 $\pm$ 0.93 by ML; 47.65 of Native American haplotypes) and European (34.66 $\pm$ 5.62 by ML; 33.56 of European haplotypes), and a relatively high African genetic component (10.65 $\pm$ 5.05 by ML; 12.42 of African haplotypes).}}, journal = {{Human Immunology}}, volume = {81}, number = {9}, pages = {525--527}, }
