Abstract (EN): The aim of the present work was to study the origin of paternal lineages in Angola population, namely in the three main ethnic groups, inferred by phylogeographic analyses of Y chromosome defined haplogroups. To determine the male lineages present in the Angola population studied, 112 unrelated males were typed using a PCR multiplex - minisequencing SnaPshot based method including 29Y-SNPs, which characterize the majority haplogroups in sub-Saharan Africa populations. © 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
