“…The populations of Peru have undergone different migratory processes, contributing to Peruvian population variation and native populations in the coast, mountains, and jungle as well as populations with substantial genetic admixture. Because of this diversity, studies have been carried out on autosomal STRs markers from different Peruvian populations (Delgado & Neyra 2018;Neyra et al 2019Neyra-Rivera et al 2020;Neyra-Rivera et al 2021a, b;Bermejo et al 2022;Neyra-Rivera et al, 2022) and also on Y-STRs from native populations (Tineo et al 2015;Neyra-Rivera et al, 2022;Neyra-Rivera et al 2023) analysis in the case of Y-STRs the genetic diversity (GD, probability that two randomly chosen individuals can be differentiated by a particular genetic marker(s) (Nei 1987)), haplotype diversity (HD, probability that two randomly chosen individuals can be differentiated by a particular set of markers comprising a haplotype(s) (Nei 1987)), probability of a random match (MP, probability that two randomly selected individuals in a population share identical genotypes (Jones 1972)), discrimination capacity (DC, probability that two randomly selected individuals will be genetically differentiated at a particular marker(s) (Smalldon and Moffat 1973)), haploid match probability (HMP, probability that two randomly selected individuals will share the same haplotype), and pairwise genetic distance (RST, the correlation of allele sizes (rather than allelic states) between genetic markers sampled within populations (Excoffier 2001)). However, there have not been studies with large population samples (i.e., greater than 200 individuals) and with at most 23 Y-STR markers.…”
