  2. Haplogroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup

    A haplotype is a group of alleles in an organism that are inherited together from a single parent, [1] [2] and a haplogroup (haploid from the Greek: ἁπλοῦς, haploûs, "onefold, simple" and English: group) is a group of similar haplotypes that share a common ancestor with a single-nucleotide polymorphism mutation.

  3. Human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Y-chromosome_DNA...

    Haplogroup R1b is the dominant haplogroup of Western Europe and is also found sparsely distributed among various peoples of Asia and Africa. Its subclade R1b1a2 (M269) is the haplogroup that is most commonly found among modern Western European populations, and has been associated with the Italo-Celtic and Germanic peoples.

  4. Haplogroup L3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_L3

    Haplogroup L3 is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup. The clade has played a pivotal role in the early dispersal of anatomically modern humans. It is strongly associated with the out-of-Africa migration of modern humans of about 70–50,000 years ago. It is inherited by all modern non-African populations, as well as by some populations ...

  5. Haplogroup N (mtDNA) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_N_(mtDNA)

    Haplogroup N is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) clade. A macrohaplogroup, its descendant lineages are distributed across many continents. Like its sibling macrohaplogroup M, macrohaplogroup N is a descendant of the haplogroup L3.

    The table below shows the human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups, based on relevant studies, for various ethnic [dubious – discuss] and other notable groups from Europe.The samples are taken from individuals identified with the ethnic and linguistic designations shown in the first two columns; the third column gives the sample size studied; and the other columns give the percentage for each ...

  7. Human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_mitochondrial_DNA...

    In human genetics, a human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup is a haplogroup defined by differences in human mitochondrial DNA. Haplogroups are used to represent the major branch points on the mitochondrial phylogenetic tree.

  8. Haplogroup U - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_U

    Haplogroup U is a human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup (mtDNA). The clade arose from haplogroup R, likely during the early Upper Paleolithic.Its various subclades (labelled U1–U9, diverging over the course of the Upper Paleolithic) are found widely distributed across Northern and Eastern Europe, Central, Western and South Asia, as well as North Africa, the Horn of Africa, and the Canary Islands.

  9. Haplogroup HV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_HV

    Haplogroup HV derives from the haplogroup R0, which in turn descends from haplogroup R.HV is also the ancestral clade to the haplogroups H and V.A possible origin of HV haplogroup is in the region of Western Iran, Mesopotamia, and the South Caucasus, where the highest prevalence of HV has been found.
