  2. Genetic history of Egypt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_history_of_Egypt

    A wide range of mtDNA haplogroups was found including clades of J, U, H, HV, M, R0, R2, K, T, L, I, N, X and W. In addition three ancient Egyptian individuals were analysed for Y-DNA, two were assigned to Middle Eastern haplogroup J and one to haplogroup E1b1b1a1b2. Both of these haplogroups are carried by modern Egyptians, and also common ...

    Gaodang King Korguz (高唐王=趙王 闊裏吉思) Noble burials of Mongols in the Yuan dynasty in Shuzhuanglou Site (northernmost Hebei, China, 700YBP) were excavated. All three men excavated belong to Y haplogroup Q, with subclade not analysed. The most principal occupant, Gaodang King Korguz, had mtDNA of haplogroup D4m2. Two others' mtDNA ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archaeogenetics

    Archaeogenetics. Archaeogenetics is the study of ancient DNA using various molecular genetic methods and DNA resources. This form of genetic analysis can be applied to human, animal, and plant specimens. Ancient DNA can be extracted from various fossilized specimens including bones, eggshells, and artificially preserved tissues in human and ...

    Ancient DNA. Cross-linked DNA extracted from the 4,000-year-old liver of the ancient Egyptian priest Nekht-Ankh. Ancient DNA (aDNA) is DNA isolated from ancient sources (typically specimens, but also environmental DNA). [1][2] Due to degradation processes (including cross-linking, deamination and fragmentation) [3] ancient DNA is more degraded ...

    The genetic history of the Middle East is the subject of research within the fields of human population genomics, archaeogenetics and Middle Eastern studies.Researchers use Y-DNA, mtDNA, and other autosomal DNA tests to identify the genetic history of ancient and modern populations of Egypt, Persia, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, Arabia, the Levant, and other areas.

  7. Haplogroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup

    v. t. e. 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]

    Furthermore, haplogroup HV0 was found in 1.4% (2/146) of the sample of Afghanistani Tajiks, but it is unclear whether these belong to the haplogroup V subclade. [8] The subclade HV1a1a has been found in 1.8% (3/169) of Yakuts in one study [9] and 1.2% (5/423) of Yakuts in another study [10] published in 2013.

    In archaeogenetics, western hunter-gatherer (WHG, also known as west European hunter-gatherer, western European hunter-gatherer or Oberkassel cluster) (c. 15,000~5,000 BP) is a distinct ancestral component of modern Europeans, representing descent from a population of Mesolithic hunter-gatherers who scattered over western, southern and central Europe, from the British Isles in the west to the ...
