title: DYS19 marker in Japanese populations.
abstract: Allele frequencies of the Y chromosome-specific short tandem repeat system DYS19 (Y-27H39) were determined from blood samples obtained from 251 unrelated Japanese in Fukui and Gunma Prefectures. Five alleles that contained 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 repeats of GATA were detected. Allele frequency distributions in Japanese populations were different from those in other Asian and Caucasian populations.
