Sažetak
Today, Iraq is home to numerous ethnic groups, each with their distinct lingual and cultural traditions. Among these ethnic groups, the Iraqi Turkmens (Arabic: تركمان العراق, Turkish: Irak Türkmenleri, Irak Türkleri) are a Turkish speaking ethnic group that constitute the second largest minority in Iraq. In this study, the paternal lineages of a Northern Iraqi Turkmen population sample (n=102) were investigated using the LifeTechnologies AmpFlSTR® Yfiler® kit. The Northern Iraqi Turkmen Y-STR dataset was found to have 74 unique haplotypes among 102 samples analysed, and the discrimination capacity and haplotype diversity observed were 72.55% and 0.99592, respectively. Next, an allele frequency- based phylogenetic analysis of the Northern Iraqi Turkmen 17-loci Y-STR dataset along with those from neighbouring and distant populations was carried out. As expected, the Northern Iraqi Turkmen population was found to cluster most closely with the Iraqi population within a Middle Eastern cluster, which included other Turkish and Arabic populations at the next level. Once published, results from this study would constitute the first Y-chromosomal dataset on Iraqi Turkmens in the literature. The Northern Iraqi Turkmen Y-STR dataset is expected to have immediate forensic applications, such as missing person’s investigations. Furthermore, the new Y- STR dataset would also contribute to a better understanding of the population genetics of the Near East in general because despite the historical importance of this geography, unfortunately still very little data exists on the populations therein.
