Sažetak
To investigate the possible sources of maternal lineages among Roma in Medimurje and elsewhere, we looked for the most prevalent haplogroups that are represented in our sample and also present at relatively high frequencies among other Roma groups. We completely sequenced over 50 mitochondrial DNAs from different populations from South Asia, European Roma and Near East. The most prevalent mtDNA haplogorups among Roma from Medimurje county in Croatia are M5a1b, X2e, d and U3b1. Complete mtDNA anlayses reveals the phylogeographic position of these highly Roma specific lineages among populations from South Asia, Near East and Caucasus.
