The Brazilian population is a product of asymmetric admixture among European men and Amerindian and African women. However, Brazilian subcontinental ancestry is scarcely documented, especially regarding its African roots. Here, we aimed to unveil the uniparental continental and subcontinental contributions from distinct Brazilian regions, including South (n = 43), Southeast (n = 71), the poorly genetically characterized Central-Western region (n = 323), and a subset of unique Brazilian Amerindians (n = 24), in the context of their genome-wide ancestral contributions. The overwhelming majority of European Y haplogroups (85%) contrast sharply with the predominant African and Amerindian mtDNA haplogroups (73.2%) in admixed populations, whereas in Amerindians, non-Native haplogroups could only be detected through the paternal line. Our in-depth investigation of uniparental markers showed signals of an Andean and Central-Brazilian Amerindian maternal contribution to Southeastern and Central-Western Brazil (83.1 ± 2.1% and 56.9 ± 0.2%, respectively), the last having the highest paternal Amerindian ancestry yet described for an admixed Brazilian region (9.7%) and contrasting with higher Southern-Brazilian Amerindian contribution to Southern Brazil (59.6 ± 1%). Unlike the higher African Bantu contribution previously reported for the South and Southeast, a relevant Western African non-Bantu contribution was detected in those regions (85.7 ± 5% and 71.8 ± 10.8% respectively). In contrast, a higher Bantu contribution was described for the first time in the Central-West (64.8 ± 1.3% maternal and 86.9 ± 9.6% paternal). We observed sex-biased signatures consistent with the historically recorded Brazilian colonization and added new insights in the subcontinental maternal ancestry of Brazilians from regions never studied at this level.
