Abstract excerpt
A correlation between particular Y-STR alleles from the so-called "minimal haplotype" and haplogroup membership of the Y chromosome was tested. We collected 146 Y chromosomes from haplogroups R1*, R1a1* and 1* and estimated the frequency of Y-STR alleles in each haplogroup. We then used different algorithms to assign a haplogroup to a haplotype, and tested their accuracy. Generally, a method based on calculation...
