Network of Y-chromosome short tandem repeat (Y-STR) haplotypes carrying DYS449.2 alleles. The network was obtained by the analysis of 12 unrelated haplotypes consisting of 36 Y-STR loci not including DYS449 (web Table 2). Though not experimentally determined, both alleles of duplicated loci were included separately (DYS385a/b, DYS459a/b, and YCAIIa/b). All loci were unweighted. Node and sector areas are proportional to the haplotype frequency. Geographic representation is indicated by the following colors: green – Cameroon, blue – Europe (Germany, Italy, and Sweden), purple – Japan, orange – Brazil, and gray – India. Haplogroup labels indicate haplogroup membership of each haplotype.
