摘要：

The human Y chromosome is the first constitutively haploid metazoan chromosome to be sequenced. It has a unique genomic landscape with a complex evolutionary history that has endowed it with few genes but many nearly identical dispersed repeats that underlie the structural fluidity of this unusual chromosome.
