title: Y-chromosome STR haplotypes in a population sample of the Byelorussian minority living in the northeastern Poland.
abstract: Haplotype and allele frequencies for the eight Y-STRs were determined in a population sample of 156 unrelated Byelorussian males. The most common haplotype was shared by 3.85% of the sample, while 121 haplotypes were unique. The gene diversity was 0.98.
