We have typed 275 men from five populations in Algeria, Tunisia, and Egypt with a set of
119 binary markers and 15 microsatellites from the Y chromosome, and we have analyzed …

The past two years have seen the increased study of Y-chromosome polymorphisms and
their relationship to human evolution and variation. Low Y-chromosome sequence diversity …

The Y chromosome contains the largest nonrecombining block in the human genome. By
virtue of its many polymorphisms, it is now the most informative haplotyping system, with …

The variation of 77 biallelic sites located in the nonrecombining portion of the Y
chromosome was examined in 608 male subjects from 22 African populations. This survey …

We introduce a list that offers information on the relation between first names and race or
ethnicity. Drawing information from mortgage applications, the list includes 4,250 first names …

Human paternal population history was studied in 9 populations [three Native American,
three Asian, two Caucasian and one African-derived sample (s)] using sequence and short …

Increasing phylogenetic resolution of the Y chromosome haplogroup tree has led to finer
temporal and spatial resolution for studies of human migration. Haplogroup T, initially known …

To scrutinize the male ancestry of extant Native American populations, we examined eight
biallelic and six microsatellite polymorphisms from the nonrecombining portion of the Y …

The Y chromosomes of 549 individuals from Siberia and the Americas were analyzed for 12
biallelic markers, which defined 15 haplogroups. The addition of four microsatellite markers …

A total of 553 Y‐chromosomes were analyzed from mainland Portugal and the North Atlantic
Archipelagos of Açores and Madeira, in order to characterize the genetic composition of …
