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
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.
A comprehensive survey of human Y-chromosomal microsatellites.
- M. Kayser, R. Kittler, +9 authors C. Tyler-Smith
- Biology, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 1 June 2004
We have screened the nearly complete DNA sequence of the human Y chromosome for microsatellites (short tandem repeats) that meet the criteria of having a repeat-unit size of > or = 3 and a repeat… Expand
Gene conversion between the X chromosome and the male-specific region of the Y chromosome at a translocation hotspot.
- Z. Rosser, P. Balaresque, M. Jobling
- Biology, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 10 July 2009
Outside the pseudoautosomal regions, the mammalian sex chromosomes are thought to have been genetically isolated for up to 350 million years. However, in humans pathogenic XY translocations occur in… Expand
High level of male-biased Scandinavian admixture in Greenlandic Inuit shown by Y-chromosomal analysis
- E. Bosch, F. Calafell, +4 authors M. Jobling
- Biology, Medicine
- Human Genetics
- 20 February 2003
We have used binary markers and microsatellites on the Y chromosome to analyse diversity in a sample of Greenlandic Inuit males. This sample contains Y chromosomes typical of those found in European… Expand
High levels of sequence polymorphism and linkage disequilibrium at the telomere of 12q: implications for telomere biology and human evolution.
- D. M. Baird, J. Coleman, Z. Rosser, N. Royle
- Biology, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 2000
The human Xp/Yp telomere-junction region exhibits high levels of sequence polymorphism and linkage disequilibrium. To determine whether this is a general feature of human telomeres, we have… Expand
Inadvertent diagnosis of male infertility through genealogical DNA testing
- T. King, E. Bosch, S. Adams, E. J. Parkin, Z. Rosser, M. Jobling
- Medicine, Biology
- Journal of Medical Genetics
- 1 April 2005
2 many companies also offer to deduce ''ancestry''. As the number of markers used in these tests increases, so does the probability of inadvertently diagnosing male infertility through the detec-… Expand
Y-chromosome mismatch distributions in Europe.
- L. Pereira, I. Dupanloup, Z. Rosser, M. Jobling, G. Barbujani
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular biology and evolution
- 1 July 2001
Ancient demographic events can be inferred from the distribution of pairwise sequence differences (or mismatches) among individuals. We analyzed a database of 3,677 Y chromosomes typed for 11… Expand
The Use of Y-Chromosomal DNA Variation to Investigate Population History
- T. Zerjal, A. Pandya, +14 authors C. Tyler-Smith
- Biology
- 1999
Y-chromosomal DNA lineages can be used to trace the origins of males in modern populations. A combination of biallelic markers has been used to identify “haplogroup 3” Y chromosomes, which are… Expand
