The genetics behind historical socio-demography in Flanders revealed by the human Y-chromosome: an interdisciplinary approach KU Leuven
The male-specific and non-recombining Y-chromosome (chrY) serves as a powerful tool for genetic-genealogy. But, as a chrY-specific sequencing panel did not exist, it has not been linked to a genealogical database yet. During my PhD, I developed the first chrY-specific sequencing panel, the CSYseq, providing a large dataset of 15,813 interesting Y-markers. This CSYseq is useful to determine evolutionary biogeographical ancestry and to identify ...
