[Screening and identification of 36 new STR loci in human Y chromosome].

133 candidate Y-STR loci were selected from NCBI STS database or by bioinformatics analysis in human Y-chromosome sequence, and were screened among 48 DNA samples around the world. Forty-one Y-STRs with high allelic frequency were validated, 36 of which were first reported. Two hundred haplotypes of the 41 STRs were identified among 200 randomly sampled male individuals in Shanghai, indicating 100% inter-individual discrimination.
