Resumen:
We present the haplotype analysis of 9 Y-STRs in 93 males from Buenos Aires province, sampled for paternity testing in our laboratory.Wefound a high haplotype diversity, 0.985, and only 6 haplotypes out of 76, were present in more than one male. About 25% of the haplotypes found do not appear in the YHRD Haplotype Reference database, while more than a half of them are not present in the SHDG database. Among the 76 haplotypes, 30% and 20% of them are described in the database as present in Italy and Spain respectively. These values are in accordance to the migration history of the country, since European immigrants mainly came from Spain and Italy. On the other hand, it is relevant to find and describe haplotypes which are not currently included in the databases
