I just been emailed a quick summary results from Y SEQ: results are like : F1370 G- M217 A- M216 T+ etc .... Can someone explain to me the relation between these markers and these bases ? I just asked them to identify my subclade. Thanks

let's hg A represents mainly east European that would be his ethnicity, same thing for sub saharan ...etc

Well of course they would assign him to hg A (from an ancestry point of view).

But this complexity exist also at autosomal dna level. not sure this is the reason they dont use haplogroups. lets say Population X has Hp A 50% Hp B 30% and Hp C 20%, same thing would happened with MtDna .... wouldn't this be more relevant in terms of ethnicity/origins of any population ?

Not sure I am convinced by your answer LeBrok. I am not talking here about cultural ethnicity but genetic ethnicity like the ones based on autosomal dna in geno 2.0 ? you said we can do that only if population is not well mixed. could you please be more explicit ?

Yes I know that. what about instead of comparing our autosomal dna to an underlying database samples, we just take into account the haplogroup percentage in a population to deduct the ethnicity percentages ..? not sure my question is clear....

just a question: the ethnicity/population percentage is based on autosomal dna. would it be more relevant if it was on haplogroups ?
