A map relating molecular population genetics and epidemiological data is suggested based on relative risk estimates and published data on genetic polymorphisms of various ethnic groups. When applied to tuberculosis epidemiology data, the constructed index correlates well (r=0.746, p<0.05) with TB morbidity in genetically and geographically distant populations clearly indicating an important role of the genetic component in determining TB epidemiology in Russia.
