ABSTRACT HAMMER OPP-9423429 Well publicized genetic studies linking the origin of modern humans to Africa have been based largely on maternally-inherited mitochondrial DNA, which reveal nothing about the role of males in the dynamics of human migration. The overall goal of this research project is to use the Y chromosome (carried by males alone) as an independent tool to test hypotheses regarding the origin and migration patterns of modern human populations and the male-dedicated gene flow in selected regions of the world. This research is the first comprehensive effort to systematically examine genetic variation in the human Y chromosome. These paternally derived data will complement the growing wealth of linguistic and archaeological data in northern Eurasia and give a more complete view of the origins and migration patterns of humans into the New World. *** ??

广为人知的将现代人类起源与非洲联系起来的基因研究，在很大程度上是基于母亲遗传的线粒体DNA，这并没有揭示男性在人类迁移动力学中的作用。这个研究项目的总体目标是使用Y染色体（仅由男性携带）作为一个独立的工具来测试关于现代人类种群的起源和迁移模式以及世界选定地区男性专用基因流动的假设。这项研究是第一次全面系统地研究人类Y染色体的遗传变异。这些来自父系的数据将补充欧亚大陆北部日益丰富的语言和考古数据，并对人类进入新世界的起源和迁移模式提供更完整的看法。* * * ? ?
