English Abstract

Seventeen Short Tandom Repeats Y-Chromosome were analyzed; in 151 blood samples collected randomly from governmental hospitals from the middle Districts of Jordan (Amman, Madaba, Salt, and Zarqa): these were DYS456, DYS389i, DYS390, DYS389ii, DYS458, DYS19, DYS385a, DYS385b, DYS393, DYS391, DYS439, DYS635, DYS392, TAGA H4, DYS437, DYS438, and DYS448).The frequency of allele found in the four districts ranged from 1% (DYS19, DYS385a, DYS385b, DYS389i, DYS389ii, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437,DYS448,DYS456,DYS458andH4)to 86 % (DYS392) .

The genetic diversity (G.D) values for each Y-Chromosome STR, ranged from a minimum of 0.256 for (DYS392) to a maximum of 0.832 (DYS458) with mean value of 0.566.The most diverse loci were (DYS458) with heterogeneity of allele equals to 54 %.

The minimal haplotype (calculated manually ≥70%) is composed of seven STR's which were observed in the Middle Districts samples equivalent to most commonly loci which appeared at the following order: DYS3891, DYS392, DYS437, DYS438 and DYS448, ranged from a minimum of 70 % (DYS389i), 74 % (DYS448),and (DYS438), 83 % (DYS437) to a maximum of 86 % for ( DYS392) with mean value equals to 77 %.

The results were found similar to other Districts of Jordan in the following percentage: Ajloun (60 %), Irbid (40 %), Jarash (60 %), Mafraq (80 %), Ma'an (80 %), Karak (100 %), Tafila (100%), and Aqaba (80%).

We compared the result which obtained from the middle district with the other countries the similarity were Saudi Arabia (100 %), Iraq (80 %), Qatar (100 %), Kuwait (20 %), United Arab Emirates (80 %) Bahrain (40 %), Oman (100 %) and Yemen (80 %), Syria (40 %), Lebanon (20 %), Libya (80 %), Egypt (80 %), Mauritania (40 %), Tunis (100 %), Algeria (80%), Morocco (80 %), Sudan (100%), Somali (40 %).
