Abstract

Genotyping of 153 samples of biological material (buccal epithelium) of male donors who live at the territory of the Republic of Belarus has been carried out. According to the results of the study, the samples were assigned to a specific haplogroup of the Y-chromosome and their terminal mutations were established. It was shown that the studied sample predominantly contains the R1a haplogroup, followed by the number of samples in the sample were the I2a1b3a, N1a1 and E1b1b haplogroups. At the same time, in haplogroup R1a, mutations Y5570 (14.8%), YP593 (7.4%), YP270 (6.2%) were most often encountered. Thus, the haplogroup R1a is the most numerous in the presented sample of the Belarusian population, which corresponds to the literature data and shows that Belarusians belong to the Eastern European peoples.
