  • Mitochondrial super-haplogroup U diversity in Serbians

    Open AccessSlobodan Davidovic, B А Malyarchuk et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology2017

    The exceptional diversity of maternal lineages found in Serbians may be associated with the genetic impact of both autochthonous pre-Slavic Balkan populations whose mtDNA gene pool was affected by migrations of various populations over time (e.g. Bronze Age pastoralists) and Slavic and Germanic newcomers in the early Middle Ages

  • Genomic evidence for the Pleistocene and recent population history of Native Americans

    Open AccessMaanasa Raghavan, Matthias Steinrücken et al.ARTICLEScience2015

    Genetic history of Native Americans Several theories have been put forth as to the origin and timing of when Native American ancestors entered the Americas. To clarify this controversy, Raghavan et al. examined the genomic variation among ancient and modern individuals from Asia and the Americas. There is no evidence for multiple waves of entry or recurrent gene flow with Asians in northern populations. The earliest migrations occurred no earlier…

  • Mitochondrial DNA perspective of Serbian genetic diversity

    Open AccessSlobodan Davidovic, B А Malyarchuk et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Physical…2015Cited by: 1References: 65

    Although south‐Slavic populations have been studied to date from various aspects, the population of Serbia, occupying the central part of the Balkan Peninsula, is still genetically understudied at least at the level of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation. We analyzed polymorphisms of the first and the second mtDNA hypervariable segments (HVS‐I and HVS‐II) and informative coding‐region markers in 139 Serbians to shed more light on their mtDNA vari…

  • Y-chromosome variation in Tajiks and Iranians

    Open AccessB А Malyarchuk, Miroslava Derenko et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology2012

    Despite the marked similarities between Y-chromosome gene pools of Iranian-speaking populations, there are differences between them, defined by many factors, including geographic and linguistic relationships

  • The Y-Chromosome C3* Star-Cluster Attributed to Genghis Khan’s Descendants Is Present at High Frequency in the Kerey Clan from Kazakhstan

    Serikbai Abilev, С К Абилев et al.ARTICLEHuman Biology2012

    To verify the possibility that the Y-chromosome C3* star-cluster attributed to Genghis Khan and his patrilineal descendants is relatively frequent in the Kereys, who are the dominant clan in Kazakhstan and in Central Asia as a whole, polymorphism of the Y-chromosome was studied in Kazakhs, represented mostly by members of the Kerey clan. The Kereys showed the highest frequency (76.5%) of individuals carrying the Y-chromosome variant known as C3* …

  • Similarities and distinctions in Y chromosome gene pool of Western Slavs

    Open AccessMarcin Woźniak, B А Malyarchuk et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Physical…2010References: 20

    Analysis of Y chromosome Y‐STRs has proven to be a useful tool in the field of population genetics, especially in the case of closely related populations. We collected DNA samples from 169 males of Czech origin, 80 males of Slovakian origin, and 142 males dwelling Northern Poland. We performed Y‐STR analysis of 12 loci in the samples collected (PowerPlex Y system from Promega) and compared the Y chromosome haplotype frequencies between the popula…

  • Mitochondrial Haplogroup U2d Phylogeny and Distribution

    B А Malyarchuk, Miroslava Derenko et al.ARTICLEHuman Biology2008Cited by: 6References: 1

    The sequencing of the entire mitochondrial DNA belonging to haplogroup U2d reveals that this clade is defined by four coding-region mutations at positions 1700, 4025, 11893, and 14926. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that western Eurasian haplogroup U2d appears to be a sister clade with the Indo-Pakistani haplogroup U2c. Results of a phylogeographic analysis of published population data on the distribution of haplogroup U2d indicate that the prese…

  • Differentiation of Mitochondrial DNA and Y Chromosomes in Russian Populations

    B А Malyarchuk, Miroslava Derenko et al.ARTICLEHuman Biology2004Cited by: 10

    The genetic composition of the Russian population was investigated by analyzing both mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and Y-chromosome loci polymorphisms that allow for the different components of a population gene pool to be studied, depending on the mode of DNA marker inheritance. mtDNA sequence variation was examined by using hypervariable segment I (HVSI) sequencing and restriction analysis of the haplogroup-specific sites in 325 individuals represe…
