title: Y-chromosomal STRs haplotypes in Chinese Manchu ethnic group.
abstract: Haplotype frequencies for 11 Y-chromosomal short tandem repeats (STRs) included in the PowerPlex Y Systems (Promega) were determined in a sample of 275 unrelated healthy male individuals of Chinese Manchu ethnic group living in Liaoning (northeast of China). A total of 238 haplotypes were identified, of which 215 were unique, 14 were found in two individuals, 6 were shared in three individuals, 1 was shared in four individuals, and 2 were shared in five individuals. The observed haplotype diversity value and discrimination capacity were 0.9985 and 0.8654, respectively.
