中华民族群体Y-染色体STR多态性研究

Polymorphisms of Y-chromosome STR loci in Chinese ethnic groups.

近年来,Y-染色体STR多态位点的发现及其应用得到很大的发展。国内的研究主要集中在以下几个方面:某个Y-染色体STR在民族群体间的比照研究;多个Y-染色体STR在民族群体内的比较;Y-染色体STR多态性在民族起源、发展方面的研究;Y-染色体STR多态性在姓氏起源、地区人群历史渊源的探索考证研究。本文对以上几个方面进行了综述,并提出目前研究的困难与不足。

More and more Y chromsomal specific short tandem repeats(Y-specific STR) have been discovered and applied.The correlative studies on Chinese ethnic groups focus on as follows: Polymorphism of one or some Y-chromosome STR loci among ethnic groups;Y-chromosome STR loci on origin of Chinese populations and their surnames in different locality.And this survey point out the difficulty of research on Y-chromosome STR loci.
