Complex paternal origins of the Han Chinese(复杂的汉族父系起源)

There's an intriguing new
Note also how the Y-chromosome haplogroups appear to be
associated with different burial customs and inferred social
status. Q1a1 was found in the remains of three aristocrats and
eight commoners, most of them buried in the extended prostrate
position typical of Bronze and Iron Age steppe nomads of what is
now western China. Most of the other remains were buried in the
extended supine position, characteristic of the populations of the
Chinese Central Plain at the time. I've put the details into a
spreadsheet
It'll be interesting to learn about the genome-wide genetic structure of the people who introduced haplogroup Q1a1 into the ancestral Han gene pool(有兴趣的是谁把Q1a1带进汉族祖先基因池中). Were they perhaps in large part of Ancient North Eurasian (ANE) origin? The reason I say this is because Q is the most common Y-chromosome haplogroup in the Americas, where ANE peaks today. It's also the sister clade of haplogroup R, which is the paternal marker of Mal'ta boy, or the MA-1 genome, the main reference sample for ANE.
Indeed, haplogroup R was expanding in a big way across Europe and West and Central Asia at about the same time as Q1a1 in China. It also probably came from the steppe and was in all likelihood associated with the spread of ANE deep into Europe.
- Objectives: Y chromosome haplogroup Q1a1 is found almost only in Han Chinese populations. However, it has not been found in ancient Han Chinese samples until now. Thus, the origin of haplogroup Q1a1 in Han Chinese is still obscure(汉族Q1a1的起源仍然是模糊的). This study attempts to provide answer to this question, and to uncover the origin and paternal genetic structure of the ancestors of the Han Chinese.
- Methods: Eighty-nine ancient human remains that were excavated from the presumed geographic source of the Han Chinese and dated to approximately 3,000 years ago were treated by the amelogenin gene polymerase chain reaction test, to determine their sex. Then, Y chromosome single nucleotide polymorphisms were subsequently analyzed from the samples detected as male.
- Results: Samples from 27 individuals were successfully amplified. Their haplotypes could be attributed to haplogroups N, O*, O2a, O3a, and Q1a1. Analyses showed that the assigned haplogroup of each sample is correlated to the suspected social status and observed burial custom associated with the sample.
- Conclusions结论: The origins of the observed haplotypes and their distribution in present day Han Chinese and in the samples suggest that haplogroup Q1a1 was probably introduced into the Han Chinese population approximately 3,000 years ago(Q1a1进入汉族人群大约在3000年前).
