Y-chromosome haplogroup diversity in the sub-Himalayan Terai and Duars populations of East India

Abstract: The sub-Himalayan Terai and Duars, the important outermost zones comprising the plains of East India, are known as the reservoirs of ethnic diversity. Analysis of the paternal genetic diversity of the populations inhabiting these regions and their genetic relationships with adjacent Himalayan and other Asian populations has not been addressed empirically. In the present investigation, we undertook a Y-chromosome phylogeographic study on 10 populations (n¼375) representing four different linguistic groups from … Show more

“…We identified 631 variable sites mapping within the 8.97-Mb region that had been described in the literature and placed on the 2008 Y Chromosome Consortium phylogenetic tree (Karafet et al 2008) and its subsequent partial updates (Cruciani et al 2008Chiaroni et al 2009;Sims et al 2009;Trombetta et al 2010Trombetta et al , 2011Debnath et al 2011;Jota et al 2011;Mendez et al 2011). These were used for assigning a standard haplogroup to each sample and in validation.…”

Barnabas et al (1996) was one of the earliest studies, using low resolution mtDNA analysis among linguistically different Indian populations to document a high level of nucleotide diversity among Indians.…”
