[h=2]Genetics[/h] [h=3]Y-DNA (paternal lineages)[/h] Modern-day genetic studies of the
Y-chromosome suggest that the Tutsi, like the Hutu, are largely of
Bantu extraction (80%
E1b1a, 15%
B, 4%
E3). Paternal genetic influences associated with the
Horn of Africa and
North Africa are few (1%
E1b1b), and are ascribed to much earlier inhabitants who were assimilated. However, the Tutsi have considerably more
Nilo-Saharan paternal lineages (14.9% B) than the Hutu (4.3% B).[SUP]

[h=3]mtDNA (maternal lineages)[/h] There are no peer-reviewed genetic studies of the Tutsi's mtDNA or maternal lineages. However, Fornarino et al. (2009) report that unpublished data indicates that one Tutsi individual from Rwanda carries the
India-associated mtDNA
haplogroup R7.[SUP]

[h=3]Autosomal DNA (overall ancestry)[/h] In general, the Tutsi appear to share a close genetic kinship with neighboring Bantu populations, particularly the Hutu. However, it is unclear whether this similarity is primarily due to extensive genetic exchanges between these communities through intermarriage or whether it ultimately stems from common origins:
[...]generations of
gene flow obliterated whatever clear-cut physical distinctions may have once existed between these two Bantu peoples – renowned to be height, body build, and facial features. With a spectrum of physical variation in the peoples, Belgian authorities legally mandated ethnic affiliation in the 1920s, based on economic criteria. Formal and discrete social divisions were consequently imposed upon ambiguous biological distinctions. To some extent, the permeability of these categories in the intervening decades helped to reify the biological distinctions, generating a taller elite and a shorter underclass, but with little relation to the gene pools that had existed a few centuries ago. The social categories are thus real, but there is little if any detectable genetic differentiation between Hutu and Tutsi.[SUP]

Tishkoff et al. (2009) found their mixed Hutu and Tutsi samples from Rwanda to be predominately of Bantu origin, with minor gene flow from
Afro-Asiatic communities (17.7% Afro-Asiatic genes found in the mixed Hutu/Tutsi population).[SUP]
