Hubungan Genetika Pria Masyarakat Sembiran dan Tri Wangsa di Bali
Abstrak: Balinese community
has evolved since the prehistoric era. The present community is structured into
Hinduism caste (Brahmana, Kesatria, Wesia and Sudra), but remnants of their
ancient communities, collectively called Bali Aga, have not undergone this
structure. The first three castes of modern Balinese that comprises Tri Wangsa
gentry were derived from JavanesekingdomofMajapahit(1343 AD). One of Bali Aga
communities is Sembiran of Northern Bali. Using chromosomal microsatellite DNA,
allelic variability of Sembiran and Tri Wangsa communities was reported. Both
of them had the same high frequency of alleles which suggested genetic
intermixing or sharing of common ancestor. However, a few alleles were unique
for each community. This uniqueness was related to patrilineal system of
Balinese community and to high mutation rate of Y chromosomal microsatellite
DNA.
