  2. Genetic studies on Filipinos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_studies_on_Filipinos

    Various genetic studies on Filipinos have been performed, to analyze the population genetics of the various ethnic groups in the Philippines.. The results of a DNA study conducted by the National Geographic's "The Genographic Project", based on genetic testings of Filipino people by the National Geographic in 2008–2009, found that the Philippines is made up of around 53% Southeast Asia and ...

  3. Most recent common ancestor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_recent_common_ancestor

    Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is nearly immune to sexual mixing, unlike the nuclear DNA whose chromosomes are shuffled and recombined in Mendelian inheritance. Mitochondrial DNA, therefore, can be used to trace matrilineal inheritance and to find the Mitochondrial Eve (also known as the African Eve ), the most recent common ancestor of all humans ...

    Results of genetic-ancestry research are supported if they agree with research results from other fields, such as linguistics or archeology. [83] Cavalli-Sforza and colleagues have argued that there is a correspondence between language families found in linguistic research and the population tree they found in their 1994 study.

    Based on the results of these studies, the average frequency of Q-M242 in Altaians is about 21%. Tuva, which is located on the east side of Altai Republic and west of Lake Baikal as well as on the north side of Mongolia, shows higher frequency of Q-M242. It is found in 14% [53] ~38.0% (41/108) [52] of Tuvans.

    The study used the same Egyptian samples from the 2017 Schuenemann et al. study to further test these two individuals. One of these two individuals was a female who formed a clad with the three ancient Egyptian individuals from Schuenemann et al., implying that she shared all of her ancestry with them or a genetically equivalent population.

    Listed below are some notable groups and populations from South Asia by human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups based on various relevant studies.. The samples are taken from individuals identified with specific linguistic designations (IE=Indo-European, Dr=Dravidian, AA=Austro-Asiatic, ST=Sino-Tibetan) and individual linguistic groups, the third column (n) gives the sample size studied, and the ...

    In human genetics, Haplogroup J-M172 or J2 [Phylogenetics 1] is a Y-chromosome haplogroup which is a subclade (branch) of haplogroup J-M304. [Phylogenetics 2] Haplogroup J-M172 is common in modern populations in Western Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, Southern Europe, Northwestern Iran and North Africa.
