Jochi's most important sons were Orda Khan and Batu Khan; they were the children of Sorghan and Öki respectively. Neither these women nor Begtütmish was the mother of Jochi's other notable son, Berke. The names of eleven other sons are known, but none had significant careers, reflecting the junior status of their mothers. [20]
Tuqa-Temür (also Toqa-Temür and Toghai-Temür, in the Perso-Arabic orthography of the sources rendered Tūqā-Tīmūr or Tūqāy-Tīmūr) was the thirteenth and perhaps youngest son of Jochi, the eldest son of Genghis Khan. He was a younger brother of Batu Khan and Berke Khan, the rulers of what came to be known as the Golden Horde.
Jochi supposedly was born shortly after Börte was liberated and Genghis Khan always accepted Jochi as his first-born son, but to some it remained uncertain whether Temüjin Borjigin or Chilger Bökh was the real father of Jochi. As Genghis Khan's first-born son, Jochi was favored as rightful heir to the Mongol Empire.
Genghis Khan assigned four Mongol mingghans: the Sanchi'ud (or Salji'ud), Keniges, Uushin, and Je'ured clans to Jochi. [181] By the beginning of the 14th century, noyans from the Sanchi'ud, Hongirat , Ongud (Arghun), Keniges, Jajirad, Besud, Oirat , and Je'ured clans held importants positions at the court or elsewhere.

The Golden Horde included the Volga region, the Ural Mountains, the steppes of the northern Black Sea, the North Caucasus, Western Siberia, the Aral Sea and Irtysh basin, and held principalities of Rus' in tributary relations.
Particular attention is given to the events of the life of Jochi, who Genghis Khan considered his eldest son but whose paternity was suspect. [2] The second chapter details how Genghis adapted traditional Mongol inheritance laws to apportion the territories of the Mongol Empire between his sons.
Genealogical relationship between Timur and Genghis Khan. Through his father, Timur claimed to be a descendant of Tumbinai Khan, a male-line ancestor he shared with Genghis Khan.
