The clinal pattern observed for the distribution of Y‐chromosome lineages in Europe is not always reflected at a geographically smaller scale. Six hundred and sixty‐three male samples from the 18 administrative districts of Portugal were typed for 25 Y‐chromosome biallelic and 15 microsatellite markers, in order to assess the degree of substructuring of male lineage distribution. Haplogroup frequency distributions, Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) and genetic distance analyses at both Y…

Male Lineages in Brazil: Intercontinental Admixture and Stratification of the European Background
TLDR
A population comparison based on pairwise FST genetic distances did not reveal statistically significant differences in haplogroup frequency distributions among populations from the different regions, and the genetic differences observed among regions were consistent with the colonization history of the country.
Y‐chromosome genetic variation in Rio De Janeiro population
TLDR
The vast majority of the present Rio de Janeiro male gene pool is of European extraction, while the original Amerindian lineages are residual and much less frequent than the sub‐Saharan component resulting from the slave trade.
Genetic characterization of uniparental lineages in populations from Southwest Iberia with past malaria endemicity
TLDR
The variation of uniparental markers in Portuguese populations with high frequency of SCD—Coruche, Pias, and Alcacer do Sal—are analyzed to evaluate if their present‐day pattern of neutral diversity could provide evidence about people inhabiting the area over different time periods.
Male lineage strata of Brazilian population disclosed by the simultaneous analysis of STRs and SNPs.
Paternal lineages in Libya inferred from Y-chromosome haplogroups.
TLDR
Overall, the Y-haplogroup diversity in Libya and in North Africa is characterized by two genetic components, typical of Berber-speaking people (E-M81) and originating from Arabic populations (J(xJ1a,J2)-M304), in agreement with the hypothesis of an Arabic expansion from the Middle East, shaping the North African genetic landscape.
Y-chromosome diversity in central Portugal reveals genetic signatures regarding Phoenician colonization
TLDR
The hypothesis a maritime entry of Middle Eastern haplogroups in the coastal region of Central Portugal, most probable through the Phoenician migrations in the first millennium BCE, is supported.
Y-chromosomal diversity in Haiti and Jamaica: contrasting levels of sex-biased gene flow.
TLDR
Both studied populations exhibit a predominantly South-Saharan paternal component, with haplogroups A1b-V152, A3-M32, B2-M182, E1a-M33, E2b-M98, and R1b2-V88 comprising 77.2% and 66.7% of the Haitian and Jamaican paternal gene pools, respectively.

Y-chromosomal diversity in Europe is clinal and influenced primarily by geography, rather than by language.
TLDR
These patterns retain a strong signal of expansion from the Near East but also suggest that the demographic history of Europe has been complex and influenced by other major population movements, as well as by linguistic and geographic heterogeneities and the effects of drift.
Diversity of mtDNA lineages in Portugal: not a genetic edge of European variation
TLDR
It is hypothesised that the recent Black African slave trade could have been the mediator of most of the L sequence inputs, while the population movement associated with the Muslim rule of Iberia has predominantly introduced U6 lineages.
Phylogeographic analysis of haplogroup E3b (E-M215) y chromosomes reveals multiple migratory events within and out of Africa.
TLDR
The present study shows that earlier work based on fewer Y-chromosome markers led to rather simple historical interpretations and highlights the fact that many population-genetic analyses are not robust to a poorly resolved phylogeny and reveals signatures of several distinct processes of migrations and/or recurrent gene flow that occurred in Africa and western Eurasia over the past 25000 years.
Clinal variation of YAP+ Y-chromosome frequencies in Western Iberia.
TLDR
The absence of haplotype 8, a marker of sub-Saharan populations, suggests that, despite the massive introductions of African slaves in historical times, there was little admixture between African males and Western Iberian populations.
Phylogeography of Y-chromosome haplogroup I reveals distinct domains of prehistoric gene flow in europe.
TLDR
Haplogroup I, the only major clade of the Y phylogeny that is widespread over Europe but virtually absent elsewhere, is analyzed, in detail, and it is revealed that it underwent a postglacial expansion and marked the human colonization of Sardinia approximately 9,000 years ago.
Excavating Y-chromosome haplotype strata in Anatolia
TLDR
This comprehensive characterization of Y-chromosome heritage addresses many multifaceted aspects of Anatolian prehistory, including: the most frequent haplogroup, J, splits into two sub-clades, one of which (J2) shows decreasing variances with increasing latitude, compatible with a northward expansion.
Armenian Y chromosome haplotypes reveal strong regional structure within a single ethno-national group
TLDR
The haplotype distribution and pattern of genetic distances suggest a high degree of genetic isolation in the mountainous southern and eastern regions, while in the northern, central and western regions there has been greater admixture with populations from neighbouring Middle Eastern countries.
The phylogeography of Y chromosome binary haplotypes and the origins of modern human populations
TLDR
A set of unique event polymorphisms associated with the non‐recombining portion of the Y‐chromosome (NRY) addresses this issue by providing evidence concerning successful migrations originating from Africa, which can be interpreted as subsequent colonizations, differentiations and migrations overlaid upon previous population ranges.
A back migration from Asia to sub-Saharan Africa is supported by high-resolution analysis of human Y-chromosome haplotypes.
TLDR
Phylogeographic analyses suggest that a large component of the present Khoisan gene pool is eastern African in origin and that Asia was the source of a back migration to sub-Saharan Africa.
The Eurasian Heartland: A continental perspective on Y-chromosome diversity
TLDR
This study reports the frequencies of 23 Y-chromosome biallelic polymorphism haplotypes in 1,935 men from 49 Eurasian populations, with a particular focus on Central Asia.
