The human Y chromosome: an evolutionary marker comes of age
- M. Jobling, C. Tyler-Smith
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Reviews Genetics
- 1 August 2003
Until recently, the Y chromosome seemed to fulfil the role of juvenile delinquent among human chromosomes — rich in junk, poor in useful attributes, reluctant to socialize with its neighbours and… Expand
Human evolutionary genetics : origins, peoples & disease
- M. Jobling, M. Hurles, C. Tyler-Smith
- Biology
- 4 January 2004
Section 1: Introduction 1. Why Study Human Evolutionary Genetics? Section 2: How do we study Genome Diversity? 2. Structure, Function and Inheritance of the Human Genome 3. The Diversity of the Human… Expand
Y-chromosomal diversity in Europe is clinal and influenced primarily by geography, rather than by language.
- Z. Rosser, T. Zerjal, +60 authors M. Jobling
- Geography, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 1 December 2000
Clinal patterns of autosomal genetic diversity within Europe have been interpreted in previous studies in terms of a Neolithic demic diffusion model for the spread of agriculture; in contrast,… Expand
Encoded evidence: DNA in forensic analysis
- M. Jobling, Peter Gill
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Reviews Genetics
- 1 October 2004
Sherlock Holmes said “it has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important”, but never imagined that such a little thing, the DNA molecule, could become perhaps… Expand
Genetic relationships of Asians and Northern Europeans, revealed by Y-chromosomal DNA analysis.
- T. Zerjal, B. Dashnyam, +15 authors C. Tyler-Smith
- Biology, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 1 May 1997
We have identified a new T-->C transition on the human Y chromosome. C-allele chromosomes have been found only in a subset of the populations from Asia and northern Europe and reach their highest… Expand
Jewish and Middle Eastern non-Jewish populations share a common pool of Y-chromosome biallelic haplotypes.
- M. Hammer, A. Redd, +9 authors B. Bonné-Tamir
- Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 6 June 2000
Haplotypes constructed from Y-chromosome markers were used to trace the paternal origins of the Jewish Diaspora. A set of 18 biallelic polymorphisms was genotyped in 1,371 males from 29 populations,… Expand
The Genetic Legacy of Religious Diversity and Intolerance: Paternal Lineages of Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the Iberian Peninsula
- S. Adams, E. Bosch, +17 authors M. Jobling
- Geography, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 5 December 2008
Most studies of European genetic diversity have focused on large-scale variation and interpretations based on events in prehistory, but migrations and invasions in historical times could also have… Expand
Y-chromosome lineages trace diffusion of people and languages in southwestern Asia.
- L. Quintana-Murci, C. Krausz, +10 authors K. McElreavey
- Geography, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 1 February 2001
The origins and dispersal of farming and pastoral nomadism in southwestern Asia are complex, and there is controversy about whether they were associated with cultural transmission or demic diffusion.… Expand
A Predominantly Neolithic Origin for European Paternal Lineages
- P. Balaresque, Georgina R. Bowden, +13 authors M. Jobling
- Biology, Medicine
- PLoS biology
- 1 January 2010
Most present-day European men inherited their Y chromosomes from the farmers who spread from the Near East 10,000 years ago, rather than from the hunter-gatherers of the Paleolithic.
Fathers and sons: the Y chromosome and human evolution.
- M. Jobling, C. Tyler-Smith
- Biology, Medicine
- Trends in genetics : TIG
- 1 November 1995
It should be possible to use Y chromosome DNA polymorphisms to trace paternal lineages for evolutionary and other studies, but progress in these areas has been slow because it has been difficult to… Expand
