[Use of an index of migration, indicators for surname diversity, entropy and redundancy for surname distribution in describing the population structure].
The index of migration, the parameter of surname diversity, and the values of entropy and redundancy of the distribution of surnames, proposed by Barrai et al. [1], were determined for populations of Kirovskaya and Kostromskaya oblasts. The relationship of these indices with previously used population characteristics, such as the Wright's F st parameter, the index of endogamy, and the burden of autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant Mendelian pathology, was determined. Further use of these parameters in population genetic research is considered.
