Comprehensive genetic structure analysis of Han population from Dalian City revealed by 20 Y-STRs.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dalian is a city formed in the 1880s in Liaoning province, Northeastern China with a population of 6.69 million now. Han is the largest ethnic group not only across Mainland China (92%) and Taiwan (97%) but also considered to be the largest ethnic group of the world contributing to above 18% of world's population.

Methods

In the current study, we genotyped Goldeneye^® 20Y System loci in 879 unrelated male individuals from the Han ethnic group in Dalian city and calculated the forensic parameters of the 20 Y-STR loci.

Results

In total, we observed 855 haplotypes, among which 835 (94.99%) were unique. The discrimination capacity (DC) of overall Goldeneye^® 20Y System is 97.27% and it slightly reduces to 96.93% when only Y-filer® set of 17
