Abstract
To describe the population-genetic structure of the Russian population of Karachay-Cherkessia, the database of Compulsory Medical Insurance and marriage records for 1990–2000 were used. The Russian population is characterized by a low birth rate, low endogamy, low inbreeding, and a high level of miscegenation.
