326:1541-1545, 2009. (Contains autosomal DNA information showing ancient lineages of
Temuan, Kensiu, and Jahai; concludes that Southeast Asia was a major source of East Asia
populations; HUGO stands for the Human Genome Organization.)

missense mutation.)

findings. TRSTMH 82:509-510, 1988. (Reports on Semai, Temiar, Jah Hut, Semaq Beri,
Semelai, Mah Meri, Temuan, and Jakun; no Duffy-negative phenotypes were found, correcting
the report by Ooi, 1979.)

G6PD; samples ranged from 1 to 181.)
