Ancient Y chromosomes confirm origin of modern human paternal lineages in Asia rather than Africa

2020-03-11

Abstract excerpt

Analyses of Y chromosome variations of extant people have resulted in two models for the paternal phylogenetic tree of modern humans with roots either in Africa or East Asia. These two trees are differentiated mainly by when and where their mega-haplogroups branched apart. This paper examines previously published Y chromosome sequencing data of 17 ancient samples to compare these two competing models. As ancient s...
