A set of 18 Y-chromosomal microsatellite loci was analysed in 568 males from Poland, Slovakia and three regions of Belarus. The results were compared to data available for 2,937 Y chromosome samples from 20 other Slavic populations. Lack of relationship between linguistic, geographic and historical relations between Slavic populations and Y-short tandem repeat (STR) haplotype distribution was observed. Two genetically distant groups of Slavic populations were revealed: one encompassing all Western-Slavic, Eastern-Slavic, and two Southern-Slavic populations, and one encompassing all remaining Southern Slavs. An analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) based on Y-chromosomal STRs showed that the variation observed between the two population groups was 4.3%, and was higher than the level of genetic variance among populations within the groups (1.2%). Homogeneity of northern Slavic paternal lineages in Europe was shown to stretch from the Alps to the upper Volga and involve ethnicities speaking completely different branches of Slavic languages. The central position of the population of Ukraine in the network of insignificant AMOVA comparisons, and the lack of traces of significant contribution of ancient tribes inhabiting present-day Poland to the gene pool of Eastern and Southern Slavs, support hypothesis placing the earliest known homeland of Slavs in the middle Dnieper basin.
对来自波兰、斯洛伐克和白俄罗斯三个地区的568名男性进行了一组18个Y染色体微卫星位点的分析。将结果与来自其他20个斯拉夫群体的2937个Y染色体样本的现有数据进行了比较。观察到斯拉夫群体之间的语言、地理和历史关系与Y短串联重复序列（STR）单倍型分布之间缺乏关联。揭示了两个遗传距离较远的斯拉夫群体：一个包括所有西斯拉夫、东斯拉夫和两个南斯拉夫群体，另一个包括所有其余的南斯拉夫人。基于Y染色体STRs的分子方差分析（AMOVA）表明，两个群体组之间观察到的变异为4.3%，高于组内群体间的遗传方差水平（1.2%）。欧洲北部斯拉夫父系血统的同质性显示出从阿尔卑斯山延伸到伏尔加河上游，涉及讲斯拉夫语完全不同分支的民族。乌克兰人口在无显著AMOVA比较网络中的中心位置，以及现今波兰居住的古代部落对东斯拉夫和南斯拉夫人基因库有显著贡献的痕迹缺失，支持了将已知最早的斯拉夫人家园置于第聂伯河中游盆地的假设。
