不能狭义地理解为成吉思汗的子女大量繁殖，那样就排除了成吉思汗的兄弟，叔伯，大爷爷二爷爷三爷爷等祖辈的后裔的贡献了。
新闻报道肯定误导了。而论文作者的解释The lineage is carried by likely male-line descendants of Genghis Khan也很容易引起读者误解。
再看看3年前论文是怎么说：（我怀疑人家最近又有新论文问世，这才是引起新闻记者炒作，否则，媒体为什么炒3年前的冷饭呢？）
他们主要文章的摘要：
Abstract: We have identified a Y-chromosomal lineage with several unusual features. It was found in 16 populations throughout a large region of Asia, stretching from the Pacific to the Caspian Sea, and was present at high frequency: similar to8% of the men in this region carry it, and it thus makes up similar to0.5% of the world total. The pattern of variation within the lineage suggested that it originated in Mongolia similar to1,000 years ago. Such a rapid spread cannot have occurred by chance; it must have been a result of selection. The lineage is carried by likely male-line descendants of Genghis Khan, and we therefore propose that it has spread by a novel form of social selection resulting from their behavior.

提上来答dck：初夜权和所谓成吉思汗基因的分布无关
