Gene geography is considered in this work as the instrument for analysis of population's gene pool. To be effective in this analysis, gene geography should move from mapping of gene frequencies for each gene (and phenes) to construction of genogeographical atlas, as a collection of maps generated by computer, following some strongly defined principles and methods, and joined together, according to general task and the programme of investigation. Brief version of regional genogeographical atlas of Mongolians and the other peoples of Central Asia is presented in the article. This atlas includes computer-generated maps of ABO, Hp, Gc, G'3, Tf, GLO, EstD and PGM1 gene frequencies as well as computer-generalized maps of Mongolian gene pool.
