Kinship structures and migration in the Po Delta

The kinship analysis of seven genetic systems in the province of Ferrara permits some considerations on the possible chronology of emergence of their polymorphisms in the area. It is proposed that, assuming neutrality of these systems, and under several restrictions, the emergence by migration of the polymorphisms in the seven systems ACP, ESD, GLO, GPT, PGD, PGM1, PGP might have had the following sequence: PGP and GLO and possibly PGD; PGM1 and GPT; ACP and ESD. All polymorphisms must be older than the beta-thalassemia polymorphism in the area.
