Contrasting maternal and paternal histories in the linguistic context of Burkina Faso
Abstract: Burkina Faso is located in the heart of West Africa and is representative of local structured patterns of human variability. Here different cultures and languages are found in geographic contiguity, as a result of several waves of migration and the succession of long- and short-term empires. However, historical documentation for this area is only partial, focusing predominantly on the recent empires, and linguistic surveys lack the power to fully elucidate the social context of contact-induced changes. In this paper we report Y chromosomal data and complete mtDNA genome sequences for ten populations from Burkina Faso whose languages belong to two very distantly related branches of the Niger-Congo phylum, the Gur and Mande language families. In addition, two further populations, the Mande-speaking Mandenka from Senegal and the Yoruba from Nigeria, were included for regional comparison. We focus on the different historical trajectories undergone by the maternal and paternal lineages. Our results reveal a striking structure in the paternal line which matches the linguistic affiliation of the ethnolinguistic groups, in contrast to near-complete homogeneity of the populations in the maternal line. However, while the ancient structure along linguistic lines is apparent in the Y-chromosomal haplogroup affiliation, this has clearly been overlain by more recent migrations, as shown by significant correlations between genetic distances based on Y-STRs and geographic distances between the populations, as well as by patterns of shared haplotypes. Using the complete mtDNA sequences we are able to reconstruct population size variation in the past, showing a strong sign of expansion in concomitance with the Holocene Climate Optimum approximately 12,000-10,000 years ago, which has been suggested as the cause of the spread of the Niger Congo phylum in the area. However, subsequent climatic fluctuations do not appear to have had an impact on the demography of the inhabitants of West Africa, probably reflecting the adaptive advantages of cultural innovations such as pastoralism and agriculture.
