The genetic footprint of the European Roma diaspora: Evidence from the Balkans to the Iberian Peninsula
Our genomic approach focuses on: (i) the internal genetic structure of Roma and its correlation with geography; (ii) the relationships between Iberian Roma and other non-Roma populations to explore possible contacts during the period of population upheaval following the Roma’s arrival on the Iberian Peninsula; (iii) estimation of the admixture events in the Iberian Roma before and after their arrival to the Iberian Peninsula; and (iv) the assessment of endogamy patterns and assortative mating of the European Roma. Our study provides a detailed analysis of the intricate population history of the Iberian Roma, offering insights from both micro-geographical and large-scale perspectives on the population history of European Roma.
