Today, what I'm sharing with you are my research notes. If you follow my blogs, you'll know that I have a fundamental, lifelong interest in Native American people and am mixed blood myself. I feel that DNA is just one of the pieces of history that can

After extraction, DNA was quantitated by rt-PCR using commercial kits; samples were then submitted to two multiplex reactions in order to determine the major Native American mtDNA and Y-chromosome haplogroups by HRM. One cocktail included primers flanking nucleotide substitutions that define mtDNA ...
Q1a is also the main paternal lineage of Native Americans. The testing of thegenome of 12,600 year-old boy(known as Anzick-1) fromClovis culturein the USA confirmed that haplogroupQ1a2a1(L54) was already present on the American continent before the end of the Last Glaciation. The vast ...

Comparison with the other geographic regions finds this incidence of total T to be larger than the host population of Northern Spain (a2¼4.46, Po0.05, df¼1), and may be slightly larger than the host population of Portugal, although it is not found to be significantly different (P40.1...
This novel X2 branch has been named X2g, and its presence in Native Americans most probably indicates an additional and very rare Native American founder. The two internal X2a branches—X2a1 and X2a2—can be easily distinguished on the basis of their private control-region mutations (143-...
M31a1 specific mutations 200 and 13710 are exclusively present in Onge and Jarwa populations while 9617 defining M31a2 clade is present in only Greater Andamanese individuals [see Additional file 1]. All the coding region diagnostic mutations of macrohaplogroup M subhaplogroups are listed in Table...

One of its sub-clades, U6a2, has been so far detected only in East African and Middle Eastern populations. Contrary to M1, various clades of U6 predate the LGM, including U6a, which is very close to the overall age of U6 (~33 KYA vs. ~36 KYA). Confirming some previous observations...
