From the 1st quarter 2003 newsletter of Mormonism Researched:

The book 'American Apocrypha' (Signature, 2002) contains an essay entitled "Lamanite, Genesis, Genealogy and Genetics."

The essay's author, Thomas W. Murphy, is a Mormon anthropologist who... says "So far, DNA research has lent no support to the traditional Mormon beliefs about the origins of Native Americans. Instead, genetic data have confirmed that migrations from Asia are the primary source of American Indian origins (pp. 47-48)."
