Our main findings disclose that streptavidin–biotin magnetic particle-based capture methodology offers better and a deeper sequence coverage for Y chromosome capture, compared to chromosome sorting and microdissection procedures. Moreover, this methodology is less time consuming and the most selective for capturing only Y chromosomal material, in contrast with other methodologies that result in considerable background material from other, non-targeted chromosomes. NGS results compared between two platforms, NextSeq 500 and SOLID 5500xl, produce the same coverage results. This is the first study to explore a methodological comparison of Y chromosome capture and genetic analysis. Our results indicate an improved strategy for Y chromosome research with applications in several scientific fields where this chromosome plays an important role, such as forensics, medical sciences, molecular anthropology and cancer sciences.}, organization = {Spanish Alfonso Martin Escudero Foundation for the financial support to one of the authors of the present work (MJ Alvarez –Cubero).}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, title = {Methodology for Y Chromosome Capture: A complete genome sequence of Y chromosome using flow cytometry, laser microdissection and magnetic streptavidin-beads}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-018-27819-x}, author = {Álvarez Cubero, María Jesús and Santiago, O. and Martínez Labarga, Cristina and Martínez-García, B. and Marrero-Díaz, R. and Rubio-Roldán, A. and Pérez-Gutiérrez, A.
