Analysis of Y-chromosomal short tandem repeat (Y-STR) polymorphisms among Orang Asli population in Taman Negara and Jerantut of Pahang / Siti Hajar Noor Alshurdin

Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia have different types of culture and belief, which impacted from history of migration centuries ago. They are three major sub-ethnic groups namely Negrito, Senoi and Proto-Malay. The main goal of this research is to study the genetic variation among Orang Asli popula...

description Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia have different types of culture and belief, which impacted from history of migration centuries ago. They are three major sub-ethnic groups namely Negrito, Senoi and Proto-Malay. The main goal of this research is to study the genetic variation among Orang Asli population in Taman Negara and Jerantut area by investigating their polymorphisms on Y-chromosome. Male genomic DNA samples of 228 Orang Asli descendants (Batek, Semaq Beri and Jah Hut tribes) from Taman Negara and Jerantut rural area of Pahang were extracted from the buccal swab samples. Four different Y-STR loci namely DYS 19, DYS 390, DYS 391 and DYS 392 were tested.

The individual allele frequencies and four Y-STR haplotype frequencies for each locus were determined.
