coalescence
30 September 2005

Y-chromosome data
Statistical analysis of Y chromosome data have been carried out using coalescent theory devised by Kingman.
Coalescent-based techniques using numerical methods to study complex likelihood functions derived from Bayesian analyses were developed subsequently and have facilitated estimation of key parameters in the Y chromosome genealogy under specific assumptions about demographic history.
Tang et al. have shown that important evolutionary properties of the Y chromosome (...)
