Phylogenetic tree of Y-chromosome haplogroups searched in this study. The analyzed Y-SNPs are shown in each branch and the corresponding haplogroup and observed absolute frequencies are shown at the end of each branch according to Karafet et al. (2008), Cruciani et al. (2010), and Trombetta et al. (2011). Broken line branches correspond to haplogroups not found in our sample and solid line branches to those found here.

... analyzed a total of 117 unrelated males who are natives of Kuwait (Supporting Information Fig. 1). All participants were verbally informed of this Research Project, following a research protocol authorized by the Bioethical Committee of the Galician Foundation of Genomic Medicine (GFMX-SERGAS). These samples were previously analyzed using Y-STR markers (Triki-Fendri et al., 2010). The DNA used for analyses was extracted from blood ...

... sample of 117 unrelated males from the general population of Kuwait (Supporting Information Fig. 1), previously studied for 12 Y-STRs ( Triki-Fendri et al., 2010), was genotyped for a set of 22 Y-SNPs. Both the SNP and STR data are shown in Supporting Information Table 1. These data were submitted to YHRD (http://www.yhrd. org/) and received the following accession number: ...

... 22 Y-SNPs analyzed in this work allowed the discrimination of 19 different haplogroups and subhaplogroups represented in Figure 1, along with their respective frequencies in the Kuwaiti samples. The most common haplogroup in Kuwait was J-M304 (55.6%) followed by E-M96 (18%), R-M173 (9.5%), and finally G-M201 (7%). ...
