Abstract
In recent years methods of DNA analysis were initiated to study humans, in addition to other living species. New samples were taken in Belarus, Russia n, Bashkir and Udmurt regions. Comparative evaluation allowed to reveal geo graphical trends in changes of DNA traits among tested populations. These i nvestigations have been carried out to detect distribution norms of new DNA markers in East European ethnic groups. The data may be helpful for person al identification, for assessment of adaptive norms and/or ecological depen dence.
