At some point during Mongoloid evolution from Polynesoids in Northeast Asia between 40,000 and 25,000 years ago a nonsynonymous T → C transition mutation occurred in the coding region of the EDAR gene on chromosome 2. This mutation resulted in Sinodonty, stiff hair, small breasts, and higher sweat gland density, and it was driven to high frequency in the incipient Mongoloids by sexual selection. The rsID for the mutation is rs3827760 and its SNPedia page is here.
Below are the frequencies from ALFRED with the populations in decreasing order of the frequency of the mutant Mongoloid C allele.
The C allele is completely absent in the British, Danish, European American, Irish, and Orcadian Nordic populations.
It is also completely absent in Basques, the French, Iberians, Italians, and Sardinians.
The C allele in Finns is from the Mongoloid originators of their language.
The C allele in Russians is from Mongols.
The C allele in Greeks is from Ottomans.
The C allele in Hungarians is from Huns, Avars, Bulgars, Magyars, Cumans, Mongols, and Ottomans.
The C allele in Ashkenazi Jews is from Khazars.
