Many new branches in DYS561=15 cluster: 2021-01-25 draft tree for I-PH908

 Click here to download our 2021-01-25 draft tree for I-PH908


I-PH908 (Dinaric South) can be divided into two clusters based on the STR marker DYS561. This marker is part of the Y68-Y111 marker set at FTDNA. Some I-PH908 men have DYS561=16 which is the typical value for Dinaric as a whole. Almost all of these men belong to the large I-FT14506 and I-FT16449 branches which are especially typical of the former Yugoslavia and adjacent areas, but also Russia, Poland etc. Other I-PH908 men have DYS561=15, and these men belong to several different branches, some of which are found in Central Europe, Germany etc. as well as the former Yugoslavia. Of course there is much geographic overlap: both clusters can be found in all parts of Southeastern Europe, Central Europe and Eastern Europe.

In the DYS561=16 cluster, we have created a new draft tree specifically for the large I-FT14506 branch. I will post a link to this tree soon. The large I-FT16449 branch already has its own draft haplotree, click here to find our latest version.

Our I-PH908 tree now focuses on the DYS561=15 cluster. This update shows several new branches in this cluster:

  • I-FT69508 (Montenegro and "Yugoslavia") is a new branch below I-Z16983
  • I-Y111673 (Finland and Germany?) is a new branch below I-Z16983
  • this update shows some new branches below I-A5913, these branches are based on individual SNP testing at YSeq.net
  • I-BY198275 is immediately below I-PH908, its the parent of two branches. The new I-BY198275 branch contains samples from the Czech Republic and Poland. The I-BY200456 branch contains sample with Bosnia and Herzegovia and unknown origin. BY200456 is equivalent to another SNP called P41.2/M359.2. This SNP has been known for many years and some scientific samples are P41.2/M359.2+. The FTDNA haplotree doesn't include P41.2/M359.2, and the YFull tree doesn't include any of these SNPs currently
  • I-BY93199 (Montenegro) is directly below I-PH908
  • I-FT275645 (Croatia and Serbia) is directly below I-PH908
  • I-FT277965 is directly below I-PH908. It contains a Big Y-700 sample from Macedonia (Albanian ancestry) and two scientific samples from Sardinia (P. Francalacci's 2013 study). The Sardinian samples belong to the more specific I-YP206 haplogroup
