Human paternal and maternal demographic histories: insights from high-resolution Y chromosome and mtDNA sequences

2014-01-13

Abstract excerpt

To investigate in detail the paternal and maternal demographic histories of humans, we obtained ∼500 kb of non-recombining Y chromosome (NRY) sequences and complete mtDNA genome sequences from 623 males from 51 populations in the CEPH Human Genome Diversity Panel (HGDP). Our results: confirm the controversial assertion that genetic differences between human populations on a global scale are bigger for the NRY than...
