[Dermatoglyphics in the study of genetic processes in human populations (the example of the population of Arminia)].
Demographic data on the sizes of local populations of Armenia and the rates of people migration were employed for prediction of genetic differentiation level using S. Wright's f-statistics. This expected value of fe was applied for approximation of the observed level of dermatoglyphic f0d and familial f0n differentiation. Both empirical estimations of f were found to be closely to each other (f0d = 0,0616, f0n = 0,0600) and fall within the limits 0,0712 greater than or equal to fst greater than or equal to 0,0580 predicted from "island" model of Armenian population structure. The present state and direction of the genetic process in Armenia is discussed in the paper with the main conclusion that the dermatoglyphics and family surnames could be used in studies of the genetic process in human population.
