The male-specific part of the human Y chromosome is widely used in forensic DNA analysis,
particularly in cases where standard autosomal DNA profiling is not informative. A Y …

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 …

After opening the first version of an internet-accessible worldwide reference database of Y
chromosome profiles 14 years ago and six years after the last major relaunch the new …

Many studies of human populations have used the male-specific region of the Y
chromosome (MSY) as a marker, but MSY sequence variants have traditionally been subject …

Informed consent is based on basic ethical principles that should be considered when

The analysis of short tandem repeat (STR) markers located on the Y chromosome is an
established method in forensic casework analysis. Usually this method is applied in cases of …

Nowadays, the use of Y-chromosome polymorphisms forms an essential part of many
forensic DNA investigations. However, this was not always the case. Only since 1992 have …
