Decreased rate of evolution in Y chromosome STR loci of increased size of the repeat unit.
<h4>Background</h4>Polymorphic Y chromosome short tandem repeats (STRs) have been widely used in population genetic and evolutionary studies. Compared to di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeats, STRs with longer repeat units occur more rarely and are far less commonly used.<h4>Princ...
