“…The most abundant mutations are  0 39 (15.5%) and  0 fsCD8(−AA) (15.5%) ( Table II). The latter opposes the rarity of  + IVS1,nt110 (2%), in association with haplotype I, as in Algeria [30], Tunisia [31], and Portugal [18,32], supporting the idea of a recent introduction in the Moroccan genetic background. The third most frequent mutation is  + IVS1,nt6 (T→C) (14%) in haplotypes VI and VII as described in Portugal [18,32,33], whereas in Algeria, Tunisia, and Egypt it is associated with haplotype VI [34,35].…”
