Haplotype diversity of 17 Y-str loci in an admixed population from the Brazilian Amazon
نویسندگان
چکیده
The allelic and haplotype frequencies of 17 Y-STR loci most commonly used in forensic testing were estimated in a sample of 138 unrelated healthy males from Macapá, in the northern Amazon region of Brazil. The average gene diversity was 0.6554 ± 0.3315. 134 haplotypes of the 17 loci were observed, 130 of them unique and four present in two individuals each. The haplotype diversity index was 0.9996 + 0.0009, with the most frequent haplogroups being R1b (52.2%), E1b1b (11.6%), J2 (10.1%) and Q (7.2%). Most haplogroups of this population belonged to European male lineages (89.2%), followed by Amerindian (7.2%) and African (3.6%) lineages.

AIM To investigate the distribution of 17 Y-short tandem repeat (STR) loci in the population of the Cukurova region of Turkey. METHODS In the period between 2009 and 2010, we investigated the distribution of 17 Y-STRs in a sample of 249 unrelated healthy men from the Cukurova region of Turkey. Genomic DNA was extracted with InstaGene matrix and Y-STRs were determined using the AmpFISTR Yfiler...
متن کاملThe Y-STR genetic diversity of an Idaho Basque population, with comparison to European Basques and US Caucasians.
Fifty unrelated Basque males from southwest Idaho were typed for the 17 Y-STR loci in the Yfiler multiplex kit (DYS19, DYS389I, DYS389II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439, DYS448, DYS456, DYS458, DYS635, YGATA H4.1 and DYS385a/b). In total, 42 haplotypes were identified, with no more than two individuals sharing a single haplotype. The haplotype diversity (HD) was 0.9935, ...

In the present study, genotyping of six short tandem repeat (STR) loci including CSF1PO, D16S539, F13A01, F13B, LPL and HPRTB was performed on genomic DNA from 127 unrelated individuals from the Iranian province of Isfahan. The results indicated that the allele and genotype distributions were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg expectations. The observed heterozygosity (Ho), expected heterozygosi...

Eleven Y-chromosome STR loci (DYS19, DYS388, DYS389I, DYS389II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, two DYS385 loci and DXYS156Y) were analyzed in 92 randomly chosen males from Mongolia. Allelic frequencies and gene diversity for each Y-STR locus and haplotype diversity were determined to evaluate their usefulness in forensic casework. A total of 84 different haplotypes were identified, among which...
