Y-Chromosome DNA Test Participants

A Y-STR test requires the participation of two or more males who would like to know whether they are biologically related through their fathers’ side of the family. (Y-chromosome test participants must be male, since females do not have the Y chromosome.)

There is no limit to the number of males who can participate in a Y-STR test; the test fee is based on the number of individuals tested.
