Abstract: | The analysis of a genotype survey in Japanese and German populations at the loci DYS388 and DYS392 located on the Y chromosome
is reported. The gene diversities of DYS388 were 0.34 and 0.30 in the Japanese and German males, respectively, and six alleles
were found in both groups. The gene diversities of DYS392 were 0.65 and 0.64 and the number of alleles was 8 and 9, respectively
in the two populations. The distribution of DYS388 alleles in the Japanese population was different from the German population.
The allele distribution of DYS392 showed significant differences among Asian populations.
