Non esistono studi pubblicati che abbiano direttamente confrontato le somiglianze genetiche tra la popolazione sarda e gli Abitanti dell’Ucraina. Diverse rassegne e analisi sulla genetica dei Sardi hanno enfatizzato la loro struttura genetica unica e le relazioni con popolazioni del bacino mediterraneo, dell’Italia e di altre aree europee, ma nessuno di questi lavori ha incluso campioni o confronti specifici con popolazioni ucraine (, ). Studi basati su marcatori mitocondriali, Y-chromosoma, e analisi genome-wide si sono concentrati su confronti tra Sardi e altre popolazioni mediterranee o europee, escludendo espressamente i confronti con popolazioni dell’Europa orientale, inclusi gli Ucraini (, ). In particolare, all’interno delle pubblicazioni analizzate, non vi è alcun riferimento esplicito né dati comparativi riguardanti direttamente i Sardi e gli Abitanti dell’Ucraina (, ). Un ulteriore approfondimento nelle analisi della struttura genetica italiana e mediterranea ha confermato che la maggior parte dei confronti riguarda esclusivamente popolazioni della penisola italiana – e, in alcune analisi, anche gruppi come i Baschi o i Nordafricani – escludendo quindi i gruppi dell’Europa orientale (, ). L’unico riferimento che accenna alla presenza di studi sul pool genico ucraino appare in contesti più ampi di analisi europea (), ma anche in questo caso i dati relativi agli Ucraini non sono stati messi a confronto diretto con quelli dei Sardi. In sintesi, si evidenzia una netta assenza di studi espliciti o comparativi che trattino le similarità genetiche tra le due popolazioni (, , ). Pertanto, fino ad oggi, la letteratura scientifica disponibile non fornisce evidenze o studi dedicati che analizzino direttamente le somiglianze genetiche tra Sardi e Abitanti dell’Ucraina.
Il testo pubblicato su AtlantisFound il 6 maggio 2025, intitolato “Genetic similarities between Sardinians and Ukrainians”, offre un’analisi comparativa tra le popolazioni sarda e ucraina dal punto di vista della genetica delle popolazioni. Tuttavia, presenta alcune imprecisioni e generalizzazioni che meritano un approfondimento.
✅ Punti di forza
-
Approccio comparativo: Il testo adotta un approccio comparativo tra le due popolazioni, evidenziando le differenze genetiche e storiche che le caratterizzano.
-
Riferimenti a studi precedenti: Vengono citati studi precedenti che hanno analizzato la genetica delle popolazioni sarda e ucraina, fornendo un contesto utile per la discussione.
⚠️ Aree di miglioramento
-
Generalizzazioni eccessive: Il testo tende a generalizzare alcune caratteristiche genetiche delle popolazioni sarda e ucraina senza considerare la variabilità interna. Ad esempio, afferma che “i sardi mostrano una forte affinità con i contadini neolitici dell’Anatolia”, ma non menziona le differenze regionali all’interno della Sardegna. Studi hanno evidenziato che popolazioni come quelle di Ogliastra presentano una maggiore conservazione dell’ascendenza mesolitica e neolitica rispetto ad altre aree dell’isola .indoeuropeo.eu+2PMC+2Wikipedia+2
-
Mancanza di aggiornamenti recenti: Il testo non fa riferimento agli sviluppi più recenti nella ricerca genetica, come gli studi sul DNA antico (aDNA) che hanno fornito nuove informazioni sulla storia delle popolazioni europee. Ad esempio, ricerche recenti hanno rivelato una maggiore diversità genetica nelle popolazioni ucraine rispetto a quanto precedentemente noto .
-
Interpretazione dei dati: Alcune interpretazioni dei dati genetici potrebbero essere troppo semplificate. Ad esempio, l’affermazione che “i sardi sono geneticamente più simili agli antichi agricoltori neolitici” non tiene conto delle influenze successive, come quelle delle popolazioni delle steppe, che hanno contribuito alla composizione genetica attuale .
🧬 Conclusione
Il testo fornisce un’introduzione interessante al confronto genetico tra le popolazioni sarda e ucraina, ma necessita di una maggiore attenzione ai dettagli e di un aggiornamento rispetto alle scoperte più recenti nel campo della genetica delle popolazioni. Per una comprensione più approfondita, sarebbe utile consultare studi peer-reviewed che esplorano le complesse interazioni genetiche e storiche che hanno plasmato queste popolazioni.

question: Have there been any genetic studies on the similarities between Sardinians (Sardi) and Ukrainians (Abitanti dell’Ucraina)?
Added 25 pieces of evidence, 16 of which were relevant. Best evidence(s): 1. The excerpt provides a detailed genetic analysis of the Sardinian population, focusing on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and Y chromosome studies. It highlights the presence of specific mtDNA haplogroups (H, U, V, X, J, T, I, K, M, W) in Sardinians, their frequencies in various regions of Sardinia, and comparisons with broader European populations. Findings indicate that Sardinians have a distinct genetic profile shaped by isolation, demographic expansions after the last glacial period, and limited influence from Neolithic migrations in some regions. Ancient mtDNA studies from the Bronze Age reveal continuity between Nuragic people and modern Sardinians, with noted internal differentiation and some recent continental Italian influences in northern Sardinia. In Y chromosome analyses, Sardinians display unique characteristics, such as a high frequency of allele DYS19*17, uncommon in Europe, with subregional variation within the island. However, the excerpt does not mention any genetic studies comparing Sardinians with Ukrainians or addressing similarities between the two populations. It focuses exclusively on Sardinian genetic diversity and its relation to other Mediterranean and European groups without reference to Ukrainian populations. 2. The excerpt discusses extensive genetic studies conducted on the Sardinian population, highlighting the unique genetic structure and relationships with other Mediterranean and Italian populations. It provides data on allele frequencies across various genetic markers and notes the distinctiveness of Sardinians compared to continental Italian groups based on principal component analyses of 22 alleles. The studies emphasize Sardinians’ high frequencies of thalassemia and G-6-PD deficiency genes, with their distribution varying by geography within Sardinia itself. Genetic distances and clustering analyses were performed comparing Sardinians with populations from the Italian peninsula, Sicily, North Africa, and Spain. These analyses revealed clear genetic separations, such as between North African and Nuorese (a Sardinian subgroup) populations, and close groupings of Italy and Sicily. However, there is no mentioning or analysis of genetic similarities or comparisons between Sardinians and Ukrainians or populations from Ukraine. The focus is mainly on Mediterranean and nearby European populations, without references to Eastern European groups like Ukrainians. 3. The excerpt provides an extensive review of the genetic characteristics of the Sardinian population based on Y chromosome microsatellite and haplotype studies. Sardinians exhibit unique genetic markers and haplotype frequencies distinct from other Euro-Mediterranean populations, with certain alleles like DYS19*17 being unusually frequent. The internal genetic diversity within Sardinia is notable, with marked frequency differences of haplotypes in different island regions. Sardinians show haplotypes common in Europe but with differing frequencies, including a significant Palaeolithic contribution (~60%) to their Y chromosomes, suggesting descent from early European settlers with some Middle Eastern genetic input during the Neolithic. Sardinian genetic signatures differ from nearby populations like Corsicans, Italians, and others, with certain haplogroups such as I-M26 and HG 2.2 being prominent on the island but rare or absent elsewhere. Comparison with other Mediterranean populations reveals Sardinians as a genetic outlier alongside Basques. There is mention of haplogroups shared broadly among Italians and Europeans, but Sardinians’ haplotype frequencies are distinct. However, the excerpt does not mention any studies explicitly comparing Sardinians with Ukrainians or populations from Ukraine. The focus remains on comparisons within the Mediterranean, European, and Middle Eastern contexts, highlighting Sardinians’ unique genetic heritage but omitting any direct genetic analyses involving Ukrainians. 4. The excerpt focuses on the genetic history and population structure of Sardinians within the Mediterranean context. The study analyzed Sardinians from different regions, especially the Gennargentu region, comparing their genomic data with other Mediterranean and North African populations using datasets like the Human Origins Array. Sardinians are shown to be genetically isolated due to the Mediterranean Sea acting as a barrier that limits gene flow, resulting in low allele sharing with neighboring mainland populations. The investigation included principal component analyses, ADMIXTURE, and effective migration surface analyses confirming Sardinia’s unique genetic component, especially in the Arzana population, which shows 100% of the Sardinian-specific ancestral component. Time-scale analyses using coalescent-based MSMC and joint site frequency spectra suggest Sardinians diverged earlier from mainland Europeans than other European populations diverged among themselves, with smaller effective population sizes and less evidence of recent growth. An interesting finding is the notable genetic affinity of Sardinians to the Basque population, stronger than their affinity to nearby Italian populations, based on shared drift outgroup-f3 statistics, identity-by-descent tract sharing, and D-statistics. There is no mention or evidence in this excerpt regarding any genetic comparison or similarity studies involving Sardinians and Ukrainians. The focus is primarily on Mediterranean populations like those from Italy, North Africa, the Near East, and the Basques, with no specific analysis or data involving Ukrainian populations presented here. 5. The excerpt primarily discusses genetic studies focused on the Italian population using uniparentally inherited markers (Y-chromosome and mtDNA) and genome-wide SNP data. It details spatial distribution patterns of haplogroups within Italy, highlighting distinct maternal and paternal genetic clines from North to South. The paternal gene pool shows significant regional variation, with influences from Mesolithic and Neolithic populations. Southern Italy, including Sicily, shows evidence of Greek colonization and some North African input, while Northern Italy exhibits genetic similarities to Northwestern Europeans. Sardinians stand out as genetic outliers within Europe, exhibiting a unique genetic profile distinct from both Northern and Southern Italians. Genome-wide studies confirm Sardinia’s distinct genetic status and demonstrate its closer affinity with certain North African groups (like Mozabites) compared to mainland Italian populations. These analyses also show Northern Italians sharing greater genetic proximity with Northwestern Europeans (e.g., French, CEU), and Southern Italians aligning more closely with Southeastern Mediterranean populations, particularly Middle Eastern groups. However, the study lacks data from Balkan reference populations. Importantly, the excerpt does not mention any direct genetic comparisons or studies involving Sardinians and Ukrainians. The genetic analyses primarily focus on Italian subpopulations and their relationships with Western European, Middle Eastern, and North African groups. There is no reference to Ukrainian populations or any direct study on genetic similarities between Sardinians (Sardi) and Ukrainians (Abitanti dell’Ucraina). Therefore, based on this excerpt, no genetic studies have been reported regarding Sardinian-Ukrainian genetic similarities.
