Genome-wide selection inference at short tandem repeats. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics
Short tandem repeats (STRs) comprising repeated sequences of 1-6 bp are one of the largest sources of genetic variation in humans. STRs are known to contribute to a variety of disorders, including Mendelian diseases, complex traits, and cancer.

The repertoire of short tandem repeats across the tree of life [PDF]

Genome Biology
Background Short tandem repeats (STRs) are widespread, dynamic repetitive elements with a number of biological functions and relevance to human diseases, genome plasticity and adaptation. However, their prevalence across taxa remains poorly characterized.

Analysis of the mutation rates and male relative differentiation ability of RM Y-STRs in the Chinese Han population [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Rapidly mutating Y-STRs (RM Y-STRs) have significant application value in differentiating both related and unrelated males. In this study, 26 RM Y-STRs from 367 father–son pairs revealed a total of 224 repeat mutations across all the markers and pairs ...
