Demand for larger Y-STR reference databases in ethnic melting-pot countries: Argentina as a test case
The amerindian lineage is the Q (light green), most present in Jujuy (northwest) and Chubut (South).
Materials and methods
Sample donors
We investigated 509 unrelated men inhabiting the urban areas of six provinces of Argentina. Donors accepted the terms and assigned a written informed consent statement which was approved together with the corresponding research project by the Ethics Committee of the School of Pharmacy and Biochemistry, University of Buenos Aires(Exp. 744085/2012). No first-degree relationships were found between sample donors as determined by autosomal STR paternity testing. The data were submitted to the YHRD database, releases 56 and 59 (http://yhrd.org). Details concerning provinces, sample size, and YHRD accession numbers were as follows: Buenos Aires (N = 2 9 4, YA 0 0 2 9 8 7 ); Sa ntia g o del E ste r o (N = 47, YA004309); Santa Cruz (N = 31, YA004308); Rio Negro (N = 25, YA 00 29 98 ); Sa nta Fe (N = 16, YA002995); and Formosa (N = 96, YA003002). Most of the samples included in our study came from reference samples from criminal casework and might be associated with low socio-economic level individuals. Once analyzed, our dataset was combined with others previously published elsewhere for obtaining a better scope at a countrywide level [12–14]. Hence, the total number of the combined dataset was increased to include 1269 men. Table S1 shows information concerning the region, province, sample size, and references.
Santa Fe and Entre Rios have 0% amerindian paternal lineage in this samples.
As i always said, proinces like Tucuman , Catamarca or Formosa are different to Jujuy. Something interesting about this study is that they have samples from a lot of different provinces, to compare.
