    Why do some lineages display less mutations?

    Thank you RobertColumbia, that puts it into perspective! I can see how people miss-interpret their DNA results, thinking they belong to a certain haplogroup. For example a neighbour tested with ancestry.com is reported as M269, a very old branch that is the root for many that belong to R1b, me...

    Why do some lineages display less mutations?

    Thank you for your response, but i am still not following how/why with the living DNA test an (non-blood relative) uncle is reported as R-P312 (no subclade) and i as R-U152 L2. Why is he not at a similar level on the tree? Understand that i am probably missing one of the fundamentals of genetics!

    Why do some lineages display less mutations?

    Hello all I am new to this forum and the study of genetics, and am finding it fascinating. Excuse my ignorance but I have a basic question that is probably covered many times somewhere in the literature on haplo groups. My querie is why do some people test as older haplo groups/ subclades and...
