R1b SNP page updated July 2, 2006

The R1b SNP page has been updated


www.geocities.com/mcewanjc


15 entries are new or updated and we now have 216 entries.


Many of the new entries are M222+ and we now have 29 R1b1c7! Most of the new entries are not that distant from the R1bSTR19Irish modal. The evidence continues to mount that all classified within that STR cluster are M222+ and we still have no evidence of anybody that is M222+ who is outside this group.


All the rest belong to various STR clusters, but most have not been tested for key SNPs that may be able to further subdivide them. For instance we now have 4 individuals estimated as R1bSTR22Frisian and 2 as R1bSTR27. All are almost certainly S21+.


As usual thanks to the individuals supplying data and hopefully the links to your entries provide additional information. If you have any follow up questions please contact.


If list readers have SNP data for new individuals or notice any errors please e-mail me. Please quote the relevant Ysearch ID.
