Abstract
Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture locates at the south of Sichuan, China, and this area has the largest population of Yi ethnic nationally. In order to study the population data of Y-STRs of this area and contribute to the worldwide Y-STR database, we genotyped 628 unrelated individuals using commercially available Goldeneye® DNA ID 27Y system. Gene diversity (GD) values and haplotype diversity (HD) were calculated. Population comparison results showed that Liangshan Yi population was significantly differently from other populations.
