Strong gender differences in reproductive success variance, and the times to the most recent common ancestors [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology 310, 43-54 (2012), 2012 The Time To the Most Recent Common Ancestor (TMRCA) based on human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is estimated to be twice that based on the non-recombining part of the Y chromosome (NRY). These TMRCAs have special demographic implications because mtDNA is transmitted only from mother to child, and NRY from father to son.
