Y-chromosome haplogroups constructed from SNP markers of Y-specific regions have been
largely used in population genetic trials. These data might also be applied to forensic …

More than 2700 unrelated individuals from Europe, northern Africa and western Asia were
analyzed for the marker M269, which defines the Y chromosome haplogroup R1b1b2. A …

A total of 2443 male individuals, previously typed for the 13 CODIS STR loci, distributed
across the five North American population groups African American, Asian, Caucasian …

Y chromosome-specific short tandem repeat (Y-STR) analysis has become another widely
accepted tool for human identification. The PowerPlex® Y System is a fluorescent multiplex …

We identified and characterized 14 novel short-tandem-repeats (STRs) on the Y
chromosome and typed them in two samples, a globally diverse panel of 73 cell lines, and …

Y chromosomal short tandem repeats (Y-STRs) have been widely harnessed for forensic
applications, such as pedigree source searching from public security databases and male …

A Y-chromosome multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification kit, known as Y-
PLEX™ 6, has been developed for use in human identification. The Y-PLEX™ 6 kit enables …

We have established 16 small multiplex reactions of two–four loci to amplify 52 recently
described single-copy simple Y-STRs and typed these loci in a worldwide panel of 74 …

Human chromosome Y-specific short tandem repeat (Y-specific STR) markers have useful
properties for forensic applications. However, there is a need to develop more Y-specific …

We have developed four multiplex genotyping systems (GeneKin Y-STR multiplexes) using
silver staining with allelic ladders for ten Y-chromosome STR markers (DYS19, DYS385 …
