中国海南岛三个黎族支系DYS287、DYS19的多态性研究

以中国海南岛（289例）本地黎（97例）、杞黎（96例）和侾黎（96例）人群为研究对象,采用PCR技术及变性聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳方法分析了Y染色体特异性微卫星DYS19的等位基因分布规律。本地黎群体检出4种等位基因,杞黎和侾黎群体均检出3种。在3个支系的等位基因中均以194bp的频率为最高,分别是0.711、0.855和0.667。杞黎与侾黎人群DYS19基因座的等位基因频率有极显著差异（P＜0.01）。我们还通过PCR方法调查了3个黎族支系的Alu序列插入基因座DYS287的多态性,结果显示：3个人群均未发生Alu序列插入。     

DYS19 and DYS199 loci in a Chilean population of mixed ancestry

The current Chilean population originated from admixture between aboriginal populations (Amerindians) and Spanish conquerors of European origin. Consequently, the unions that gave rise to the Chilean population were chiefly between Spanish males and aboriginal females, and not the converse. To test the hypothesis that the Y chromosome of the Chilean population is mainly of Spanish origin, while the other chromosomes are from mixed (European and aboriginal) origin, we studied the DYS19 and DYS199 loci in two samples. One sample was obtained from a high socioeconomic stratum, while a second sample was from a low stratum. We studied male blood donors (N = 187) from Santiago, the capital of the country. Subjects were typed for the autosomal ABO and Rh (locus D) blood groups, and for the Y-linked DYS19 and the DYS199 loci, reported as Y-chromosome haplotypes. The aboriginal admixture was estimated for each genetic marker. The percentage of aboriginal admixture was 38.17% for the ABO system and 31.28% for the Rh system in the low socioeconomic stratum and 19.22% and 22.5%, respectively, in the high stratum. Y-chromosome haplotype frequencies constructed from the DYS19 and DYS199 loci demonstrated that the main haplotypes were DYS19*14/DYS199 C, as is often the case with many European populations, and DYS19*13/DYS199 C. The aboriginal admixture from Y-haplotype frequencies was estimated to be 15.83% in the low socioeconomic stratum and 6.91% in the high stratum. These values are lower than the values found using autosomal genetic markers, and are consistent with the historical background of the population studied. This study highlights the population genetic consequences of the asymmetric pattern of genome admixture between two ancestral populations (European and Amerindian).

Analysis of polymorphism of three human Y-chromosome STR loci: DYS390, DYS392 and DYS393 in the population of northern Poland

The study aimed at development of a multiplex PCR system for amplification of three Y-chromosome STR loci: DYS390, DYS392 and DYS393, and its application in haplotype polymorphism analysis in the population of northern Poland. Due to interactions between originally published primers, a new DYS392 primer pair was proposed. In a population of 158 unrelated males, 28 different haplotypes could be observed, 12 of which were seen only once. The haplotype diversity is 0.805. Distribution of haplotypes of the studied loci is specific to the population of northern Poland and distinguishes it from compared West-European populations. To our knowledge, this is the first report on a Y-STR multiplex system that can be analysed on native polyacrylamide gels.     

对法医学相关的DYS549、DYS527和DYS459基因座在男性不育症人群中的缺失、重复调查

位于Y染色体无精症因子区域(Azoospermia factor, AZF)的基因座位点DYS549、DYS527和DYS459在法医学鉴定和家系分析中被广泛应用。但是,在男性不育患者中,DYS549、DYS527和DYS459位点很可能会表现出特殊的基因型,对应用Y染色体短串联重复序列(Y chromosome short tandem repeat, Y-STR)进行个体识别的结果产生干扰。因此,文章应用14个Y-STR基因座复合扩增体系和Y染色体AZFc区DAZ、CDY1基因的拷贝数检测等方法,探讨男性不育症中法医学相关的3个Y-STR基因座的异常分型,对个体识别和家系分析中的DNA检验异常结果提供合理的解释。在240例男性非梗阻性无精、严重少精、先天性双侧输精管缺如(CBVAD)患者中,采用改良的多重PCR体系进行AZF区域微缺失的序列标签位点(Sequence tagged sites, STSs)检测,发现AZF微缺失40例(AZFa：2例;AZFb：2例;AZFc：30例;AZFb+c：6例),AZF的总缺失率为16.67%。应用14 Y-STR复合扩增体系对上述AZF微缺失的阳性患者样本进行检测,发现所有AZFb缺失患者存在DYS549等位基因缺失,AZFc缺失患者存在DYS527、DYS459等位基因缺失,AZFb+c缺失患者存在DYS549、DYS527和DYS459等位基因缺失。在AZF微缺失阴性的不育症患者中,通过检测DAZ、CDY1基因拷贝数发现10例AZFc部分复制的患者(1例为先天性输精管缺如,2例非梗阻性无精症,7例严重少精子症),占所调查不育人群的4.17%。男性不育人群AZF区域3个Y-STR基因座多态性会造成等位基因缺失或者重复,这些异常分型是由于临床遗传缺陷造成的而不是实验偏差。阐明Y-STR在男性不育人群中的异质性可以更好地完善Y-STR数据库和解释STR实验结果。     

微卫星位点DYS19在中国人群中的多态研究

以人DNA为模板,经PCR扩增后,用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳分离扩增片段,再经高灵敏度银染着色,对中国陕西汉族、广东汉族、宁夏回族、辽宁满族、四川彝族、西藏藏族、广西壮族、广西瑶族、新疆维吾尔族、湖南土家族等10个人群535名个体的Y染色体上微卫星位点DYS19的遗传多态性进行了研究。结果表明：中国人群中以等位基因C（194bp）为主要等位基因,基因频率范围在0.25-0.61;等位基因B（190bp）、D（198bp）次之,基因频率范围分别为0.08—0.36、0.06—0.42;而等位基因A（186bp）和E（202bp）频率较低,频率范围分别为0—0.07和0—0.38。在壮族中还检测出了一名携带F（206bp）等位基因的个体。中国人群DYS19等位基因的分布与蒙古人种群体以C型为主的结果相一致。X^2成对比较表明瑶族、藏族与大多数其它中国民族间DYS19表型分布存在差异（P< 0.05）或显著性差异（P< 0.01）。中国人群DYS19的基因频率至今在文献中尚未见报道。     

DYS19 and DYS390 Y-STR polymorphism in the Iberian Peninsula: a multivariate analysis

Genetic polymorphism of two Y-specific short tandem repeats (DYS19 and DYS390) was investigated in six populations from the Iberian Peninsula (Andalusia, Castilla-La Mancha, Castilla-Leon, Extremadura, Galicia and South East Spain) comprising a total of 895 unrelated and native individuals, and a complete database of DYS19 and DYS390 allele frequency distributions in 34 world-wide populations collected from literature was analysed. DYS19 and DYS390 polymorphism was screened by automated fluorescence analysis of PCR-amplified labelled sample fragments performed with and ABI PRISM 377 Genetic Analyser. The degree of population differentiation was analysed using the STP Test to calculate G Statistic values. Correspondence Analysis based on the allelic frequencies of each locus and combining both was performed using the NTSYS-PC version 1.70 computer package. The diversity of the genetic profiles of gene frequencies suggests an important population heterogeneity in the Iberian Peninsula as a whole (DYS390 being particularly evident), which is corroborated after statistical analyses (G = 139.8457, p = 1.7822 x 10(-14) for DYS19, G = 116.0293, p = 4.6845 x 10(-12) for DYS390). However, multivariate analysis indicates a well defined cluster of the populations of the Central region, and sets them apart from the positions within which peripheral Iberian Peninsula populations are distributed. The Galician population shows trends which bring it closer to the positions throughout which European Atlantic populations are distributed. The results shown by the Central Iberian Peninsula seem to lend support to a model of settlement population stocks which came from the region of Castilla-Leon after the Islam invasions, whereas in the South-East populations the genetic record of Middle Eastern populations is still present, a consequence of the expansion of Islam in Southern Europe in the Middle Ages.     

克里雅河下游封闭人群DYS19和DYS390多态性研究

本文以居住于塔克拉玛干沙漠当中克里雅河下游地区封闭人群(51例男性)为研究对象,采用基因扫描对其DYS19和DYS390两个STR基因座进行基因扫描研究其遗传多态性。对于DYS19基因座,克里雅河下游的封闭人群等位基因分布呈现“M”形分布,以DYS19*14和DYS19*16最常见,基因频率分别为0.353和0．510;对于DYS390基因座,其人群等位基因分布也并非呈现“钟形”分布,而是以DYS390*21和DYS390“24两种基因型基因频率最高,并且DYS390*21为此人群等位基因重复次数最少的基因型,基因频率分别为0．235和0．431,这可能是提示克里雅河下游的封闭人群的来源包含两个不同的群体分支。     

2个新Y-STR基因座的序列分析和在广东汉族群体中的多态性研究

分析了Y染色体2个新STR基因座DYS522和DYS527的序列结构及其在151例广东汉族男性无关个体中的遗传多态性。结果显示, DYS522基因座为单拷贝, 核心序列gata, 观察到重复数目为9~13次。DYS527基因座有双拷贝, 每一个拷贝的序列结构有6个稳定的重复序列和2个数目变异的重复序列, 如(GGAA)₃…(GGAA)₂…(GGAA)₂…(GGAA)₃…(GGAA)₄…(GGAA)₃…(GAAA)_m(GGAA)_n。在广东汉族男性群体中观察到2个数目变异的核心序列重复总数目(m+n)为18~26次。还发现1个稀有的拷贝“15.3”。在广东汉族男性群体中, 2个基因座所组成的单倍型有63种, 出现最多的单倍型为11/21-22, 频率为0.0728, 仅出现1次的单倍型有29种, 频率为0.0066。本系统单倍型多样性(HD)为0.9780, 个体识别力(DP)达0.9715。在38对父子遗传中未发现DYS522和DYS527基因座发生变异。这2个Y-STR具有种属差异, 能够区分“男人”和“非人”雄性动物。因此, DYS522和DYS527基因座具有高度的多态性, 适用于法医学实践和人类进化的研究。     

福建畲族群体17个Y-STR基因座单倍型及遗传关系

应用Y-filerTM试剂盒及基因分型技术,检测152份福建畲族无关男性个体17个Y-STR基因座的多态性分布,计算等位基因频率及单倍型多样性,并结合已公开发表的其他11个群体相应基因座的单倍型资料,分析福建畲族群体遗传距离和聚类关系。福建畲族DYS385a/b基因座检出50种单倍型,其余15个Y-STR基因座分别检出3-11个等位基因,基因多样性GD值在0.4037(DYS391)～0.9725(DYS385a/b);观察到DYS19和DYS390基因座双等位基因和DYS385a/b基因座三等位基因,以及DYS448等部分基因座出现的"off-ladder"等位基因现象。17个Y-STR基因座共同构成的单倍型144种,其中138种单倍型出现1次,5种出现2次,1种出现4次,累计GD值为0.9990。从遗传距离分析发现,福建畲族与浙江汉族之间的遗传距离最近(0.0042),与青海藏族(0.2378)之间的遗传距离相对较远。福建畲族最靠近由台湾群体、浙江汉族、南方汉族等典型南方汉族群体聚成的分支区域。结果表明该17个Y-STR基因座在福建畲族群体中具有丰富的遗传多态性,对建立Y染色体STR数据库,研究群体遗传学和进行法医学应用有重要意义。     

Genetic variation of the Y chromosome in Chibcha-speaking Amerindians of Costa Rica and Panama

Genetic variation of the Y chromosome in five Chibchan tribes (Bribri, Cabecar, Guaymi, Huetar, and Teribe) of Costa Rica and Panama was analyzed using six microsatellite loci (DYS19, DYS389A, DYS389B, DYS390, DYS391, and DYS393), the Y-chromosome-specific alphoid system (alphah), the Y-chromosome Alu polymorphism (YAP), and a specific pre-Columbian transition (C-->T) (M3 marker) in the DYS 199 locus that defines the Q-M3 haplogroup. Thirty-nine haplotypes were found, resulting in a haplotype diversity of 0.937. The Huetar were the most diverse tribe, probably because of their high levels of interethnic admixture. A candidate founder Y-chromosome haplotype was identified (15.1% of Chibchan chromosomes), with the following constitution: YAP-, DYS199*T, alphah-II, DYS19*13, DYS389A*17, DYS389B*10, DYS390*24, DYS391*10, and DYS393*13. This haplotype is the same as the one described previously as one of the most frequent founder paternal lineages in native American populations. Analysis of molecular variance indicated that the between-population variation was smaller than the within-population variation, and the comparison with mtDNA restriction data showed no evidence of differential structuring between maternally and paternally inherited genes in the Chibchan populations. The mismatch-distribution approach indicated estimated coalescence times of the Y chromosomes of the Q-M3 haplogroup of 3,113 and 13,243 years before present; for the mtDNA-restriction haplotypes the estimated coalescence time was between 7,452 and 9,834 years before present. These results are compatible with the suggested time for the origin of the Chibchan group based on archeological, linguistic, and genetic evidence.     

African and Levantine origins of Pakistani YAP+ Y chromosomes.

We surveyed 9 Pakistani subpopulations for variation on the nonrecombining portion of the Y chromosome. The polymorphic systems examined were the Y-chromosome Alu insertion polymorphism (YAP) at DYS287, 5 single nucleotide polymorphisms, and the tetranucleotide microsatellite DYS19. Y chromosomes carrying the YAP element (YAP+) were found in populations from southwestern Pakistan at frequencies ranging from 2% to 8%, whereas northeastern populations appeared to lack YAP+ chromosomes. In contrast to other South Asian populations, several Pakistani subpopulations had a high frequency of the DYS19*B allele, the most frequent allele in West Asian, North African, and European populations. The combination of alleles at all polymorphic sites gave rise to 9 YAP-DYS19 combination haplotypes in Pakistani populations, including YAP+ haplotypes 4-A, 4-B, 5-C, and 5-E. We hypothesize that the geographic distributions of YAP+ haplotypes 4 and 5 trace separate migratory routes to Pakistan: YAP+ haplotype 5 may have entered Pakistan from the Arabian Peninsula by means of migrations across the Gulf of Oman, whereas males possessing YAP+ haplotype 4 may have traveled over land from the Middle East. These inferences are consistent with ethnohistorical data suggesting that Pakistan's ethnic groups have been influenced by migrations from both African and Levantine source populations.     

Y-chromosome polymorphisms and the origins of the European gene pool

Gradients of allele frequencies have long been considered the main genetic characteristic of the European population, but mitochondrial DNA diversity seems to be distributed differently. One Alu insertion (YAP), five tetranucleotide (DYS19, DYS389B, DYS390, DYS391 and DYS393) and one trinucleotide (DYS392) microsatellite loci of the Y chromosome were analysed for geographical patterns in 59 European populations. Spatial correlograms showed clines for most markers, which paralleled the gradients previously observed for two RFLP polymorphisms. Effective separation times between populations were estimated from genetic distances at microsatellite loci. Even after correcting for the possible effects of continuous local gene flow, the most distant Indo-European-speaking populations seem to have separated no more than 7000 years ago. The clinal patterns and the estimated, recent separation times between populations jointly suggest that Y-chromosome diversity in Europe largely reflects a directional demic expansion, which is unlikely to have occurred before the Neolithic period.     

Association and differentiation of MHC class I and II polymorphic Alu insertions and HLA-A, -B, -C and -DRB1 alleles in the Chinese Han population

In order to investigate the polymorphism of Alu insertions (POALINs) in the HLA region, we genotyped ten Alu loci (AluMICB, AluTF, AluHJ, AluHG, AluHF in the HLA class I region and AluDPB2, AluDQA2, AluDQA1, AluDRB1, AluORF10 in the HLA class II region) to determine their allele frequencies and associations with the HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C and HLA-DRB1 genes in the Chinese Han population. Our results showed the ten-loci POALINs varied in frequency between 0.003 and 0.425. By comparing the data of the ten-loci POALIN in Chinese Han with Japanese and Caucasian data, marked differences were observed between the three ethnic groups at the allelic or haplotypic levels. Each POALIN was in significant linkage disequilibrium with a variety of HLA-A, -B, -C and -DRB1 alleles, and was associated with a variety of HLA-A, -B, -C and -DRB1 allele in Chinese Han. This comparative study of multilocus POALINs in the HLA class I and II regions of the Chinese Han population shows that POALINs alone or as haplotypes together with the HLA class I and II alleles are informative genetic markers for the identification of HLA class I and II allele and variations, such as crossing over events within the same and/or different populations.     

Genetic diversity of Y-chromosome microsatellites in the Fujian Han and the Sichuan Han populations of China

Y-chromosome short tandem repeats (STRs) are potentially useful for forensic, anthropological and evolutionary studies. In this study we chose the loci DYS 19, DYS 388, DYS 389 I, DYS 389 II, DYS 390, DYS 391, DYS 392, DYS 393, DYS 425 and DYS 426. Blood samples were taken from 46 unrelated male individuals from Fujian Han and 43 unrelated males from Sichuan Han in China. DNA was extracted by conventional chelex extraction procedure. PCR was carried out in two multiplex reactions. Fragment analysis was conducted on an ABI PRISM 310 Genetic Analyzer. Allele frequency distributions and discrimination indices were calculated, and the two populations were tested for genetic differences by means of analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). Here we obtained 75 Y-STR haplotypes and the haplotype diversity for the complete haplotype was 0.9884 in Fujian Han and 0.9967 in Sichuan Han. A larger genetic difference became apparent between the two populations that belong to the Sino-Tibetan speaking populations.     

中国南方汉族人群6个Y-STR基因座 遗传多态性及法医学应用

为研究中国南方汉族人群DYS393等6个Y-STR基因座的遗传多态性并用于法医学鉴定,通过采用PCR复合扩增和基因测序仪荧光检测方法,检查204个无关男性个体,调查南方汉族的6个Y-STR基因座的单倍型频率,并对93对真父子和38对非父子的亲子鉴定样本进行检测。结果DYS393基因座检出5个等位基因,DYS19基因座检出6个等位基因,DYS389Ⅱ基因座检出8个等位基因,DYS390基因座检出6个等位基因,DYS391基因座检出4个等位基因,DYS385 基因座检出44个等位基因,共检出176种单倍型。93对真父子中,观察到2例分别有1个基因座突变。检测38对非父子,有1个或2个Y-STR基因座排除的案例各有1例（2.6%）;有3 个和3个以上的Y-STR基因座可以排除父子关系的案例为35例（92.1%）;6个Y-STR基因座不能排除父子关系的为1例。结果表明6个Y-STR基因座具有丰富的遗传多态性,可用于法医学个体识别和亲子鉴定。Abstract: To study the genetic polymorphisms of six Y-chromosome specific STR loci in the southern Chinese Han population and apply it in forensic science, six Y-STR loci were amplified by multiple PCR and the PCR products were detected by using ABI PrismTM 377 Sequencer. The haplotype frequencies at 6 Y-STR loci were determined in a total of 204 unrelated males from southern Han population of China. Ninety-three father/son pairs with demonstrated paternity and thirty-eight non-paternity father/son pairs were detected by using our Y-STR system. As a result, the number of alleles for DYS393、DYS19、DYS389Ⅱ、DYS390、DYS391and DYS385 were 5, 6, 8, 6, 4 and 44 , respectively. A total of 176 haplotypes at 6 Y-STR loci were found. Two father/son pairs with single Y-STR mutation were observed in the 93 father/son pairs with demonstrated paternity. Among the 38 non-paternity father/son pairs, one case with one Y-STR exclusion of paternity, one case with two Y-STR exclusions and 35 cases with 3 or more Y-STR exclusions were observed. Non-exclusion of paternity at 6 Y-STR loci was found only in one case. This result indicated that the six Y-STR loci were highly polymorphic and are suitable for personal identification and paternity testing.     

Geographic differences in the allele frequencies of the human Y-linked tetranucleotide polymorphism DYS19

We have studied the allele frequency distribution of the microsatellite locus DYS 19 in several populations with different geographical origins worldwide. Three new alleles were found. In addition, remarkable geographic and ethnic differences were observed in the allele frequency profiles and DNA marker (gene) diversity among populations and major ethnic groups. Amerindians showed an overwhelming predominance of the A allele, while in Caucasians the B allele was modal, and in Greater Asians and Africans allele C became predominant. Even within these geographic regions there were significant gradients, as exemplified by the decreasing frequency profile of the B allele from Great Britain over Germany to Slovakia. Thus, DYS 19 emerges as a useful tool for studying the structure and dynamics of human populations.     

Genetic structure and gene flow in Gran Chaco populations of Argentina: evidence from Y-chromosome markers

The Gran Chaco region of central South America has been settled by humans for only the last 4,000-5,000 years. To investigate population structure and variation in this region's indigenous population, we scored males from tribes of the Argentinean part of the Gran Chaco (Pilagá, Wichí, and Toba, representing two major language groups, the Mataco and Guaycurú) for a number of Y-chromosome polymorphisms. The markers included eight microsatellites (DYS19, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DYS438, and DYS439) and the unique native American single nucleotide polymorphism, DYS199. Sixty males (77%) from the total sample carried the DYS199T chromosome, and these were the focus of the present analysis. Unlike most other native Americans, Gran Chaco males show a moderate level of diversity at the DYS19 locus but still less than that seen in non-native Americans. The FST value for Y-chromosome markers in Gran Chaco was 0.107, a value that is more than double that found for mtDNA haplogroups in the same tribes but is not particularly high compared with other Y-chromosome studies. Phylogenetic trees based on all eight microsatellites showed relatively poor correlation of the tribes with either geography or language, and this is possibly explained by their ecology. They are seasonal hunters living in small bands, and under such circumstances drift will be a powerful evolutionary force. An UPGMA tree based on five microsatellites (DYS19, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, and DYS393), however, showed a more positive relationship, suggesting that DYS437, DYS438, and DYS439 may behave differently from the other microsatellites. No association was found between maternal and paternal lineage distributions. The time to the most recent common ancestor of the DYS199T chromosome is calculated to lie between 13,000 and 26,000 years. This range is consistent with estimates from other Y-chromosome studies as well as with estimates from mtDNA and the archeology of the colonization of South America. We conclude that the male lineages present in the contemporary Gran Chaco population reflect the level of diversity found in South America and that the region's male founders did not carry a restricted gene pool.

调查了广东汉族群体22个 Y-STR基因座的遗传多态性分布情况, 探讨其群体遗传学及法医学应用价值。通过自行建立的两组Y-STR荧光标记复合扩增体系(MultiplexⅠ: DYS505, DYS533, DYS576, DYS588, DYS634, DYS643; MultiplexⅡ: DYS461, DYS481, DYS504, DYS508, DYS607)和应用进口Powerplex Y System (DYS19, DYS389Ⅰ/Ⅱ, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS385, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439), 对广东汉族216 名无关男性个体进行22 个STR基因座的复合分型, 用ABI310基因分析仪对扩增产物进行检测, 统计22 个Y-STR基因座的群体遗传学参数, 并结合已公开发表的其他12 个群体“扩展单倍型”的数据资料, 分析广东汉族群体遗传距离和聚类关系。3 组复合扩增系统均可成功进行分型, 基因多样性GD值在0.3299(DYS634)~ 0.9425(DYS385); 22 个Y-STR基因座共同构成的单倍型214 种, 单倍型多样性为0.9999。广东汉族和潮汕汉族的遗传距离最近(-0.0030), 与东北汉族的遗传距离最远(0.0195)。22 个Y-STR基因座联合检测具有丰富的遗传多态性, 对建立Y染色体STR数据库, 研究群体遗传学和进行法医学应用有重要意义。     

Polymorphism of the Y-chromosome diallelic loci in the ethnic populations of the Altai-Sayan region

Using the data on five biallellic Y-chromosome loci (DYS199, 92R7, SRY1532, RBF5 and DYS287) polymorphism, genetic structures of the five Turkic-speaking ethnic groups of the Altai-Sayan highland (Tuvinians, Sojots, Shorians, Khakassians, and Southern Altaians (Altai-Kizhi), were described. The gene pools of the populations examined were characterized by the presence of pronounced paleo-Caucasoid component (92R7-T-lineages). The frequency of this component increased westward, reaching more than 70% in Shorians and Southern Altaians. Haplotype TAT-C (RBF5 locus) was observed in all populations, except Shorians, with the frequencies varying from 5.4% in Altai-Kizhi to 18.8% in Khakassians. The Alu-insertion in the DYS287 locus was revealed only in the Altaian sample with the frequency of 3.3%. It was established that the Altai-Sayan populations studied split into two statistically significantly different groups. One of the groups was represented by Tuvinians, Sojots, and Khakassians, while another one was comprised of Shorians and Altaians.
