Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, younger Alu Y family was focused on among some kind of interspersed Alu elements which have very high mutation rates to differentiate between genetically very close populations such as Japanese and Koreans. A transposon display method as the first step to detect novel interspersed repeat regions to differentiate among human populations in/near Japan and development was completed. Alternatively, using more than 100 loci for short tandem repeats (STRs), a kind of tandem repeats, 2D dots for individuals by a factorial correspondence analysis revealed that Japanese and Korean populations could be categorized into two groups. When we calculated Bayes factors for these individuals based on Dirichlet multi-nominal distribution. Summary of those factors for two populations, showed about 92% of Japanese were strongly suggested as Japanese. More number of data for each population could be necessary to differentiate between both populations more accurately.
