[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lion: [QB] http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2156/10/59 J2-M172 Saudi Arabian Y-Chromosome diversity and its relationship with nearby regions Khaled K Abu-Amero1 email, Ali Hellani2, Ana M González3 email, Jose M Larruga3 email, Vicente M Cabrera3 email and Peter A Underhill4 email Molecular Genetics Laboratory, College of Medicine, King Saud University, Riyadh 11411, Saudi Arabia Department of PGD, Saad Specialist Hospital, Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia Departamento de Genética, Universidad de La Laguna, 38271 La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Sciences, Stanford University, School of Medicine, Stanford, California 94304, USA BMC Genetics 2009, The most abundant haplogroups in Saudi Arabia, J1-M267 (42%), J2-M172 (14%), E1-M2 (8%), R1-M17 (5%) and K2-M184 (5%) Saudi Arabia differentiates from other Arabian Peninsula countries by a higher presence of J2-M172 lineages. It is significantly different from Yemen mainly due to a comparative reduction of sub-Saharan Africa E1-M123 and Levantine J1-M267 male lineages. Around 14% of the Saudi Arabia Y-chromosome pool is typical of African biogeographic ancestry, 17% arrived to the area from the East across Iran, while the remainder 69% could be considered of direct or indirect Levantine ascription. J1-M267 is more abundant in the southern areas, reaching a frequency around 73% in Yemen, whereas J2-M172 is more common in the Levant. Most probably, the significant higher presence of J2-M172 in Saudi compared to other Arabian populations is due to the larger northern boundary that Saudi Arabia shares with the Levant. The Fertile Crescent region has been considered the most probable origin of the earliest dispersions of both subclades [21,32,33]. Further subdivisions of J1-M172 have uncovered more recent Bronze age expansions from Turkey and the Balkans traced by the J2-M67/M92 and J2-M12 subgroups [/QB][/QUOTE]
