Major update reorganizes entire haplogroup I2 tree

Thursday, July 9, 2020

Our first tree specific to I-FT16449 (part of I-PH908): 2020-07-08

Click here to download our first draft tree specific to I-FT16449

I-FT16449 is a large haplogroup that's part of the larger I-PH908 (Dinaric South) haplogroup. FTDNA's public haplotree and Big Y Block tree includes I-FT16449. But YFull doesn't include FT16449, it is inside a so-called X-transposed region which is very similar (99,5%) to a region on the X chromosome. This also means that FT16449 is not suitable for individual SNP testing.

As shown on our draft tree, I-FT16449 has the characteristic STR marker values DYS561=16 and DYS712>22.

This update shows many new branches below I-FT16449

  • I-FT36524 
  • a new I-FT19919 haplogroup below I-Y126296. The I-FT19919 branch isn't shown on the FTDNA public haplotree/Big Y Block Tree
  • There may be a new unnamed haplogroup below I-Y189253, characterized by the mutation ChrY:10951827 T to C. Two Big Y-700 samples share this variant but a Dante Lab sample doesn't have this variant reported in his VCF file.
  • A new I-BY171718 haplogroup above I-Y144303, previously BY171718, Y144303 and several other SNPs were considered to be equivalent
  • A new I-FT166563 branch, the two samples are closely related
This tree also shows some new SNP information in existing branches
