title: Genetic data for 16 Y-chromosomal STR loci in Japanese.
abstract: Allele frequencies and haplotypes for 16 Y-chromosome STR loci, DYS19, DYS389I, DYS389II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439, DYS448, DYS456, DYS458, DYS635, Y GATA H4, and DYS385a/b, were determined in 161 unrelated Japanese males using AmpFlSTR Yfiler PCR Amplification Kit. This population was demonstrated 153 haploytpes, of which 146 were unique, six were found in two individuals, and one was found in three individuals. The haplotypes diversity calculated from the 16 Y-STR loci was 0.9994 and the discrimination capacity was 0.9503.
