Evolution of the Japanese Y chromosome by analysis of the haplogroups and the deletion of the gene in the AZFc region.

Human genetics - 1 Dec 2025

Nii Kenshiro, Tada Atsushi, Nakagawa Yusuke, Sato Youichi

Abstract excerpt

The Y chromosome is classified into haplogroups based on its nucleotide polymorphisms. There are multiple amplicon genes in the azoospermia factor c (AZFc) region of the Y chromosome, and combinations of copy numbers of these genes diversify the Y chromosome structure. In this study, we investigated the evolution of the Y chromosome in a Japanese population based on the relationship between the Y chromosome...
