Population genetics of 24 Y-STR loci in Chinese Han population from Jilin Province, Northeast China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It is meaningful to expand the available population information on forensic medicine and to investigate the genetic characteristics of Han population from Jilin Province, Northeast China.

Methods

In this study, we investigated the genetic characteristics of 24 Y-chromosomal short tandem repeat (STR) loci in 1,088 unrelated Chinese Han male individuals from Jilin Province, using DNATyper^TM Y24 amplification kit. Additionally, we performed the population comparison between the Jilin population and the other nine reported populations based on the Y-STR genotyping haplotypes.

Results

A total of 1,067 different haplotypes were found from 1,088 unrelated individuals, of which 1,046 were unique and 21 were shared by two individuals. The gene diversity v
