Population dataset for 23 Y-STR in the Merkit clan form Kazakh population.

ABSTRACT: This study presents a comprehensive analysis of 23 Y-STR data for the Merkit clan, a subgroup within the Kerey tribe of the Kazakh people. A total of 64 complete haplotypes were generated using the PowerPlex Y23 System. The data obtained using 23 Y-STR markers has been submitted to the Y Chromosome Haplotype Reference Database (YHRD) at yhrd.org, which will significantly enhance the forensic database for the Kazakh population in Kazakhstan. The research focuses on the distribution of haplotypes within the clan and their genealogical lines, which were visualized using a Median-joining network and Multidimensional scaling plot. The study identifies four distinct haplogroup clusters, revealing important insights into the genetic makeup and historical lineage of the Merkits. This dataset not o
