A search for a “Genghis Khan” chromosome
Abstract
Zerial et al. (2003) have shown that a special variant of the Y chromosome, characterized by a set of microsatellite markers occurs at high frequency in the number of human populations of Central Asia. This variant was attributed to the descendants of Genghis Khan and its accumulation, to social selection. A search of this Y chromosome variant in Russian populations was conducted. The "Genghis Khan Y chromosome" has been found among Altaians, Altai Kazakhs, Buryats, Kalmyks, Nogaits, and Tuvinians. Its highest frequency (13.8%) was observed in Nogaits. In the examined cases the carriers of the "Genghis Khan Y chromosome" possessed no information on their origin.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
