Our analyses have also allowed us to confirm that there has been a strong male bias among the European ancestors of the Greenlanders. Further, our analyses revealed population structure within the Inuit ancestry component of the population: we roughly observed a genetic subdivision corresponding to the geographic division of Greenland into north, west (including south), and east. Additionally, the observed genetic division also corresponds to the subdivision of the Greenlandic Inuktitut language into three different dialects. The Greenlanders in Qaanaaq predominately speak the Inuktun language (Avanersuarmiutut), the Greenlanders in the west (including the south) speak Kalaallisut, and the Tunumiit in the east predominantly speak Tunumiisut (Tunumiit oraasiat). Interestingly, Qaanaaq in the north and Tasiilaq in the east do not appear to be closer to each other genetically than to other locations, as reported previously.13","tracks":[{"project":"2_test","denotations":[{"id":"25557782-16353217-2052304","span":{"begin":1086,"end":1088},"obj":"16353217"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"25557782-16353217-2052304","pred":"source","obj":"2_test"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"2_test","color":"#d793ec","default":true}]}]}}
