  2. Haplogroup M-P256 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_M-P256

    Haplogroup M, AKA M-P256 and Haplogroup K2b1b (previously K2b1d) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. M-P256 is a descendant haplogroup of Haplogroup K2b1, and is believed to have first appeared between 32,000 to 47,000 years ago. [1] M-P256 is the most frequently occurring Y-chromosome haplogroup in West Papua and western Papua New Guinea. [3]

  3. Human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup - Wikipedia

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

    In human genetics, a human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup is a haplogroup defined by specific mutations in the non-recombining portions of DNA on the male-specific Y chromosome (Y-DNA). Individuals within a haplogroup share similar numbers of short tandem repeats (STRs) and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). [ 2 ]

    The following articles are lists of human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups found in populations around the world. Y-DNA haplogroups by ethnic group;

  5. Haplogroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup

    In human genetics, the haplogroups most commonly studied are Y-chromosome (Y-DNA) haplogroups and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups, each of which can be used to define genetic populations. Y-DNA is passed solely along the patrilineal line, from father to son, while mtDNA is passed down the matrilineal line, from mother to offspring of both ...

  6. Haplogroup N-M231 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_N-M231

    Haplogroup N (M231) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup defined by the presence of the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker M231. [ Phylogenetics 1 ] It is most commonly found in males originating from northern Eurasia .

  7. Haplogroup M (mtDNA) - Wikipedia

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

    There is a debate concerning the geographical origins of Haplogroup M and its sibling haplogroup N. Both lineages are thought to have been the main surviving lineages involved in the out of Africa migration (or migrations) because all indigenous lineages found outside Africa belong to haplogroup M or haplogroup N. Scientists are unsure whether the mutations that define haplogroups M and N ...

  8. Conversion table for Y chromosome haplogroups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_table_for_Y...

    In human population genetics, Y-Chromosome haplogroups define the major lineages of direct paternal (male) lines back to a shared common ancestor in Africa. Men in the same haplogroup share a set of differences, or markers, on their Y-Chromosome, which distinguish them from men in other haplogroups.

  9. Haplogroup Q-M3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_Q-M3

    Haplogroup Q-M3 (Y-DNA) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. Haplogroup Q-M3 is a subclade of Haplogroup Q-L54. Haplogroup Q-M3 was previously known as Haplogroup Q3; currently Q-M3 is Q1b1a1a below Q1b-M346. [1] In 1996 the research group at Stanford University headed by Dr. Peter Underhill first discovered the SNP that was to become known as M3 ...
