Mitotree: A New Era for Human Mitochondrial Phylogeny Human mitochondrial DNA has long been used to reconstruct maternal ancestry, population history, migration patterns, and evolutionary relationships. For decades, PhyloTree served as the main reference framework for mitochondrial...

Here is a fascinating article summarising the what we know about the role of mitochondria in our body and health. A highly recommended read.

Hello to everyone, i already asked in another thread about R-L2. Now i'm curious about my mtdna, u4b, i did a 23andme test for see it. My mom is romanian but i saw is not so common this mtdna, can someone explain me what kind of mtdna is u4b and his story? Online i can't find a lot about this...

Hi all! Would like to know that what kind of ancestry my father's U3b2 mt-dna can mean as a Hungarian. What are its possible sources?

Hi, I'm wondering :unsure: if anyone here has had any success getting an email response from the people at Dante Labs USA? Also wondering :unsure: if any members have first-hand experience from the Dante kit blood extraction test (result)? Not only that, I'm wondering :unsure: if the little...

My mtDNA haplogroup result is N1'5 and I'm slightly baffled and intrigued by what this means. Most of known ancestry is very rooted in a small area of eastern England. My Y-DNA is an easier to explain/understand I1a1b1. I'm struggling to find much information about N1'5 or what it might mean...

The moors seem to have brought very few women, and among those it's mostly slaves. This could be due to the locations, maybe if there are palaces slaves are overrepresented...

https://haplotree.info/maps/ancient_dna/samples.php?searchcolumn=mtDNA_haplogroup&searchfor=K1a1b1&ybp=500000,0 The oldest samples of the precurssor haplogroup of Askhenazis are from Neolithic France and Bronze/Iron Ages Spain.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2492877/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25043798/ Here are 2 articles about the Hispanic Caribbean haplogroup composition. Long story short. Like 80% of Spanish Y-DNA. 60% of Amerindian in Puerto Rican mitochondrial haplogroups, and some 40 of...

Haplogroups C and D dominate among certain areas of Latin America. But those are the places where there were never Amerindian civizations: the Amazon, N.Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia, Chile... In all of those places there's an extra of Spanish ancestry. While those descendent from N(Hp A)...

The importance of rivers for the appearance of the first civilizations, that were based primarily in the mastering of an agricultural economy, is a common topic in general culture. The reasons are obvious:abundance of water, therefore food, easy transport and the bigger nets of population that...

Maciamo calls U2 "rare" and "ancient", with low numbers spread thinly across Europe, with ancient samples dating back to the Cro-Magnons, etc. U2e is "found in most of Europe and Central Asia / found in Mesolithic Germany and Russia, in Chalcolithic Russia, in the Andronovo culture, among the...

Among Eurasians (whose ancestral descendants include Oceanians and Amerindians), apart from M, most people descend from branches of mitochondrial macrohaplogroup R. 1) We don't know why that is. Maybe they have superadvantageous mutations in their DNA that gave them special human...

I took a dna test and it said that my haplogroup is U4a. Does anyone else have this haplogroup? What is your known ancestry if you do? Thank you

Im Turkish and i wanted to ask if my YDNA G2a1a1a1a1a1b1 is common? same with my MTDNA H2a2a1? and where they came frome :)

Hi all , I was wondering if someone , somewhere also has H15b1 . Its really hard to find any matches ore significant information about this mtdna group . these are my mutations : 263G,1438G , 3847C , 4769G , 6253C , 15326G, 15715G at least these are the ones tested at "Living Dna " I hope...

Role of STING complex in differential retrograde signaling in cybrids with K versus H haplogroup mtDNA Abstract Mitochondrial (mt) DNA haplogroups, defined by specific single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) patterns, represent populations of diverse geographic origins and may play a role in...

Family Tree DNA has come up with a cute way to show mt development.

Hi I’m new here. I’ve been working on several branches of our family tree. I hit a brick wall on my maternal and paternal sides at about 1800. So I decided to have my dna tested. My dna results from two different companies show that I’m 69.3%. I’m trying to figure how to used my mtdna...

I have mtDNA R1b (full sequence from FTDNA, checked with dna.jameslick.com). Any information about mtDNA R1b? There appears to be even less information than R1a... My maternal ancestor is from Finland and there is a cluster of R1b in the southern half of Finland. Thanks! :cool-v:
