摘要：Rootsi等于2007年初发表了一篇研究Y染色体单倍群N的论文。这是至今关于单倍群N的最全面、最详细的研究。论文中尚未完美地解释的东欧的N3多样性比西伯利亚高的结果。本文应用Derenko等新发表的数据，更好地解释了这个结果。同样，应用Derenko等的Y单倍型分类，对之前文献报道的土耳其的N*个体进行深入分型，发现他们大多是N2-A，由此得到了突厥东亚起源的强有力证据：东亚起源单倍群N2-A是突厥的特征单倍型，而N2-A2几乎只存在于突厥的后裔中。经分析土耳其人中的R1b1b-M73，认为它的分布与中国古代部落月支的迁徙有关。同时探讨了R1a1、Q在突厥形成过程中的演变。并推断突厥祖先丁零－铁勒诸部的主要Y-SNP类型为N3a1、N3a2和N2-A。乌拉尔族群的起源也与突厥群体有很大关系。
