Haplogroup I (M170) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. It is a subgroup of haplogroup IJ, which itself is a derivative of the haplogroup IJK. Subclades I1 and I2 can be found in most present-day European populations, with peaks in some Northern European and Southeastern European countries.

These 170 Y chromosome mutations are shared by everyone in this haplogroup. They show a paternal lineage of father-son relationships that have accumulated mutations over time. Learn the story about I-M170 and find interesting connections.

In human genetics, Haplogroup I (M170) is a Y-chromosome haplogroup. Haplogroup I (pronounced "eye") is native to the Middle East and Europe. It can be found in most European populations, most commonly in Scandinavia and Croatia. Haplogroup I is a …

Haplogroup I-M170, also known as Haplogroup I-M170 (Y Chromosome Consortium long-form label), is a genealogical group of lineages defined by unique genetic markers present on the Y-chromosome.

The Y-DNA Haplogroup I Project seeks to enroll members who are interested in finding others searching for their paternal origins through the comparison of haplotypes and geographical origins. There are several branches of Haplogroup I and there are projects at …

Dec 10, 2020 · I-M170 is the oldest major haplogroup in Europe and most likely the only one that originated here, apart from sub-branches of other haplogroups. The “father” of I-M170 is the haplogroup IJ-P124. The ancestors of I-M170 and J-M304 split about 43,000 years ago. The common ancestor of haplogroup I-M170 lived about 27,500 years ago.

These are maps of modern distribution of haplogroup I-M170 and its main subclades, using natural neighbour interpolation. Modern distribution of haplogroup I-M170. See full map. Pending: Analyze I1 and I2 distribution maps separately.

Haplogroup (Hg) I-M170 is a component of the European Y-chromosome gene pool, accounting, on average, for 18% of the total paternal lineages. Its virtual absence elsewhere, including the Near East, suggests that it arose in Europe, likely before the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) (Semino et al. 2000).

Haplogroup I (M170) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. It is a subgroup of haplogroup IJ, which itself is a derivative of the haplogroup IJK. Subclades I1 and I2 can be found in most present-day European populations, with peaks in some Northern European and Southeastern European countries.

All kits M170, M253, P215 and downstream are welcome. The I Project seeks to enroll members who are interested in finding others searching for their paternal origins through the comparison of haplotypes and geographical origins.
