Alan J. Redd, et al. 2002. Forensic value of 14 novel STRs on the human Y chromosome. Forensic Science International, Vol 130, Issues 2-3, 4 December 2002, Pages 97-111. Article characterizes 14 STRs on the Y chromosome, typing them in two samples, a globally diverse panel, and individuals from a European-American population. The Y-STRs included DYS449, DYS453, DYS454, DYS455, DYS456, DYS458, DYS459, DYS464, DYS446, DYS447, DYS450, DYS452, DYS463, DYS448). These Y-STRs improved the resolution of paternal lineages, above the level obtained with commonly used Y-STRs, in the European-American population.

DNA project for the ROCKWELL families. To quote Ann Turner "The project coordinator has posted some additional notes on RG's "haplolocation" diagram. This is a new term to me (new to Google, too ). However, the haplolocation diagram appears to be the "skeleton" of network diagrams we have discussed before. A network diagram will show alternate routes for getting from one haplotype for another. For example, if two mutations separate one person from another, the network will show two routes: mutation A then B, and mutation B then A. The haplolocation diagram collapses the two routes into one, making the picture a little cleaner looking. People who are comparing different projects should note the fact that the Rockwell project has some different marker names. It appears to omit Y-GATA-A4, which may in fact be identical to DYS439 (as discussed previously on this mailing list). The Rockwell project also uses the newer names DYS460 and DYS461 vs Y-GATA-A7.1 and Y-GATA-A7.2 found in the PAYNE project."
