Summary of Argentine Genetic Studies

[Marco94]

Mira vos! El Q, que es nativo, es más común en el noroeste más que nada.
En 23andme tengo un primo genético español (de las Canarias) que es hijo de madre española y padre argentino.
Nuestra parentela descubrimos que viene del lado español, pero me resultó muy curioso que tuviera haplogrupo paterno nativo (ese mismo Q).
Cuenta que el padre es de Bs As pero indudablemente debe tener ancestros en el NOA o norte..
O incluso en la Patagonia, veo que en Chubut es abundante también.

Claro! Fijate que el haplogrupo Q es más prevalente en Buenos Aires y Cordoba que en Tucumán y Catamarca. Este haplogrupo sería inexistente en el centro del país si no fuera por la inmigración del NOA y países limítrofes.

Right now the english wikipedia has a complete article on Argentine's genetics/ethnics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic...s_of_Argentina
But it is very vandalized and filled with bad data (presumably by trolls). Would be great Argentano if you, the most expert here, can edit the article with your solid and accurate data instead.

1)Tucuman seems to be more colonial mestizo and recieved a good amount of europeans and middle easterns. Salta was probably more amerindian (more in the borders of the country), recieved less europeans and more Bolivians.

2) Salta and Jujuy were probably mestizo/indomestizo and NEVER stopped recieving Bolivians. We are the only country of Latin America that always recieved limitrofe immigrants in relevant numbers. Even Uruguayans.

3) Yeah you are right it should have been central. Dont know why i put it as south


This is the regional result using mendoza as central

Yes, Tucumán recived an important number of immigrants from Spain, Italy, syrians and lebanese, and ashkenazi jewish.
San Juan is an interesting case because although it seems it doesn't recived a lot of immigrants from the biggest waves, it didn't stopped to recive spanish immigrants after the independence, even though in permanent waves, not as a massive immigration.
There also went a several number of syrians and lebanese.


P.s.: That chart is wonderful, I didn't remember it.
