Southern China is the birthplace of rice-cultivating agriculture and different language families has also witnessed various human migrations that facilitated cultural diffusions. The fine-scale demographic history in situ forms present-day local populations, however, remains unclear. To comprehensively cover genetic diversity East Southeast Asia, we generated genome-wide SNP data from 211 Chinese co-analyzed them with ∼1,200 ancient modern genomes. In China, classification significantly...

The Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China (XUARC) harbors 47 ethnic groups including the Manchu (MCH: 0.11%), Mongols (MGL: 0.81%), Kyrgyz (KGZ: 0.86%) and Uzbek (UZK: 0.066%). To establish DNA databases for these populations, allele frequency distributions 15 autosomal short tandem repeat (STR) loci were determined using AmpFlSTR Identifiler PCR amplification kit. There was no evidence departures from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) in any four populations minimal departure linkage...

Molecular diversity, which reflects variation in species abundance and genetic structure, plays a pivotal role forensic entomology by enabling the accurate identification of insect evidence through tools such as DNA barcoding. In Pakistan, absence trained entomologists limited research on biodiversity hinder effective use entomological criminal investigations. Traditional morphological methods are insufficient for resolving complex cases, particularly when dealing with immature stages. This...

Abstract The rise and expansion of Tibetan Empire in the 7th to 9th centuries AD affected course history across East Eurasia, but genetic impact Tibetans on surrounding populations remains undefined. We sequenced 60 genomes for four from Pakistan Tajikistan explore their demographic history. showed that Balti people Baltistan comprised 22.6–26% ancestry. inferred a single admixture event dated it about 39–21 generations ago, period postdated conquest by ancient Empire. analyses mitochondrial...

Abstract Different fixation modalities are available for of posterior malleolar fractures (PMFs), but the best method is still unclear. The purpose this study was to carry out a comparative biomechanical analysis three commonly used constructs PMFs using experimental and finite element (FEA). 15 human cadaveric ankle specimens were randomly divided into groups. Specimens in group-A fixed with two anteroposterior (AP) lag screws, group-B posteroanterior (PA) group-C, plate used. Each model...

Rapidly mutating Y-chromosomal short tandem repeats (RM Y-STRs) were suggested for differentiating patrilineally related men as relevant in forensic genetics, anthropological and genetic genealogy. Empirical data are available closely males, while differentiation rates more distant relatives scarce. Available RM Y-STR mutation rate estimates typically based on father-son pair data, pedigree-based studies efficient analysis requiring less samples rare. Here, we present a large-scale pedigree...

Y chromosome short tandem repeat polymorphisms (Y-STRs) are important in many areas of human genetics. chromosomal STRs, being normally utilized the field forensics, exhibit low haplotype diversity consanguineous populations and fail to discriminate among male relatives from same pedigree. Rapidly mutating Y-STRs (RM Y-STRs) have received much attention past decade. These 13 RM high mutation rates (>10−2) considerably higher discrimination capacity than conventionally used Y-STRs, showing...

Genome-wide association studies have reported numerous candidate loci associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). NUCKS1 and INPP5K are two such loci, although they rarely been in Asian populations. To explore these potential genes for PD susceptibility, we investigated the between SNPs, rs823114 rs1109303, located on genes, respectively, Han population of northern China. We genotyped SNPs using multiplex PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism) technique....

Abstract Background Epidemiological studies found that genetic factors are among the causes of schizophrenia, exclusively genes involved in dopamine system. Prior to this, role receptor D2 ( DRD2 ) gene promoter polymorphisms and schizophrenia has been studied extensively, but there still some uncertainties about these associations. The present study is focusing on association between region northern Chinese Han population. Methods We sequenced 2,111‐bp fragment 306 schizophrenic patients...

Gypsies are a separate ethnic group living in Pakistan and some other countries as well. They mostly known 'Roma' 'untouchables'. have different types of lifestyles compared to common people, they always keep migrating from one place another. do not proper houses; live tent houses most probably work on daily wages earn their living. cannot be specified according the residence can only classified migration route. Previous historical linguistic research showed north Indian origin Roma people....

Abstract Background Dalian is a city formed in the 1880s Liaoning province, Northeastern China with population of 6.69 million now. Han largest ethnic group not only across Mainland (92%) and Taiwan (97%) but also considered to be world contributing above 18% world's population. Methods In current study, we genotyped Goldeneye ® 20Y System loci 879 unrelated male individuals from calculated forensic parameters 20 Y‐STR loci. Results total, observed 855 haplotypes, among which 835 (94.99%)...
