The Y chromosome as the most popular marker in genetic genealogy benefits interdisciplinary research
The Y chromosome is currently by far the most popular marker in genetic genealogy that
combines genetic data and family history. This popularity is based on its haploid character …

Messages through bottlenecks: on the combined use of slow and fast evolving polymorphic markers on the human Y chromosome
P de Knijff - The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2000 - cell.com
In 1995, much to the delight of mitochondrial Eve (Cann et al. 1987), the search for a
suitable partner resulted in the discovery of Y-chromosomal Adam (Dorit et al. 1995; Pääbo …

Strong Amerind/white sex bias and a possible Sephardic contribution among the founders of a population in northwest Colombia
Historical and genetic evidences suggest that the recently founded population of Antioquia
(Colombia) is potentially useful for the genetic map** of complex traits. This population …

The genetic legacy of religious diversity and intolerance: paternal lineages of Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the Iberian Peninsula
Most studies of European genetic diversity have focused on large-scale variation and
interpretations based on events in prehistory, but migrations and invasions in historical times …

High-resolution analysis of human Y-chromosome variation shows a sharp discontinuity and limited gene flow between northwestern Africa and the Iberian Peninsula
In the present study we have analyzed 44 Y-chromosome biallelic polymorphisms in
population samples from northwestern (NW) Africa and the Iberian Peninsula, which allowed …

Genetic evidence for different male and female roles during cultural transitions in the British Isles
Human history is punctuated by periods of rapid cultural change. Although archeologists
have developed a range of models to describe cultural transitions, in most real examples we …
