J2-M172 Stats from FTDNA Y-DNA Haplotree (BigY) and YFull YTree Current subclades (FamilyTreeDNA) and id’s (YFull YTree v11.04.00) analysis. It is biased against customers of Y-clusters or regions of which descendants do more BigY/NGS testing (Ashkenazi/Europe, Northwest Europe, Georgia, Armenia, Rhine/Germans, Arabia, Russia, others Europe ...

Read about the age of J2-M172 etc. here: Age Estimates. These prehistoric cultures are likely vectors of the early J2 diversification, migration and expansion in the Fertile Crescent , Middle East and beyond.

Under the lead of Greg Magoon a group of citizen scientists (including J2-M172 team members Bonnie Schrack and Chris Rottensteiner) were involved in the analysis of a high-resolution a priori maximum parsimony Y-chromosome (“chrY”) phylogeny created from data of 1292 male samples in the 1000 Genomes Project. 63 of those samples are in ...

Y-haplogroup J2 is carried by 2.7% of Dutch men and is relatively rare in the Netherlands.” “Particular results have been found with the father and daughter (individuals 15 and 14). Individual 15, the father with a very rare Y chromosome haplotype is of non-local origin (87Sr / …

Since some time three Francalacci et al 2013 samples and in J2-M172 Project@FTDNA two BigY tested kits were in the M67* paragroup which means found not positive for the known M67 subclades Z467, Z500 and Z7671.

Geno 2.0 J2-M172 terminal haplogroup names Since Nov. 2012 results of this SNP-chip of Genographic Project are available. The following is a list “reverse engineered” of terminal J2 haplogroup names by try and error in the Search field of “Browse All Stories” (Jan. 2014).

As J2 (approx. 30,000 years) and J2a (approx. 21,000 years) are very old and it is difficult to track down the origin for them, here the focus is on a younger lineage including the majority of all J2a lineages: J2a-L26 (approx. 17,500 years).

Further estimates including 95% CI see YFull YTree J2. Range of age estimates for Y-chromosome and mtDNA haplogroups connected to estimates for expansion of modern Proto-Eurasians (non-African). See for example (BP = before present):

This page collects famous members of Y-DNA haplogroup J2 (paternal lineage). The provisional criteria for inclusion in the list require the fulfillment of the following conditions: a) Evidence to be in haplogroup J2 : M172+ or positive for a certified downstream SNP or GD<7% to a certified haplotype of the person or a certified relative in the ...
