Abstract:A summary of the medical genetic studies of the Marii El population is presented. A total of 276,900 people, 110,894 and 166,006 urban and rural inhabitants, respectively, were examined. Regarding the ethnic composition, the studied population was mostly Mari (61.96%) and Russian (32.04%). Medical genetic examination revealed 480 subjects from 260 families with autosomal dominant (AD) diseases, 234 subjects from 184 families with autosomal recessive (AR) diseases, and 49 subjects from 41 families with x-linked diseases. Segregation analysis revealed a good agreement between the expected and observed segregation frequencies for families with AR and AD diseases and allowed the frequency of hereditary diseases in the urban and rural, as well as the Russian and Mari, populations, to be estimated. The total frequency of AD diseases in Maris was approximately twice as high as in Russians (1.99 and 0.97%, respectively); substantial differences between district populations were found. The total frequency of AR diseases was also two times higher in Maris than in Russians (1.00 and 0.54%, respectively). The frequencies of AR and AD diseases in different districts were correlated with the levels of random and local inbreeding, population size, and the index of maximum selection.
