Sažetak
Due to its specific features Y chromosome is an importante genetic tool for the study of human evolution, population diversity as well as forensic and paternity testing. The aim of this study was to present allele and haplotype frequencies. Eight Y chromosome short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms (DYS19, DYS388, DYS389 I, DYS389 II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393) were analyzed in the sample of 457 unrelated Croatian men. A general STR allelic frequency pattern in Croatians corresponds to other European populations with the exception of the loci DYS19 and DYS389I/II. The most frequent DYS19 allele was 16, while at the DYS389I the most frequent was allele 10 and alleles 27 and 28 were the most frequent at the DYS389II locus. Two hundred forty two different Y chromosome haplotypes were observed, yielding the haplotype diversity estimate of 0.9896 +/- 0.0017. The most frequent Y chromosome haplotype (16-13-10-28-24-11-11-13) was found in 33 individuals (7.22%). One hundred seventy four haplotypes (38.07%) were observed in single copies. Comparison of insular and mainland populations showed that the forth most frequent haplotype (16-13-10-29-24-11-11-13) in the total sample was noticed only in islands and absent in the mainland population.
