Haplogroup G (Y-DNA) by country explained

In human genetics, Haplogroup G (M201) is a Y-chromosome haplogroup

See main article: article and Haplogroup G-M201. None of the sampling done by research studies shown here would qualify as true random sampling, and thus any percentages of haplogroup G provided country by country are only rough approximations of what would be found in the full population.

Africa

Algeria

In 46 samples taken in Algeria in a 2008 study, 2% were found to be G. SNP testing was not done, but this one sample was predicted G based on haplotype. When originally tested for SNPs, G was not an available test.[1] In a 2011 study, none of 20 samples from Berber Mozabites in Algeria were G.[2]

Comoros Islands

In a 2011 study of 577 men in the Comoros Islands off the southeastern African coast, 1.8% were G2a (P15+) and 0.3% were in other unspecified G categories, but none were G1.[3]

Egypt

Of 147 samples from among Egyptians in Egypt (2004), 9% were G.[4] And in a 2009 study, among 116 Egyptians, 6.9% were G.[5] In a study of 35 samples from oasis el-Hayez in the western Egyptian desert area, none were G.[6]

Libya

A survey of the population of Libya based on testing of SNPs is lacking, but a close approximation for the population in Tripoli in the western part of the country based on the STR markers of 63 samples from there in the YHRD database[7] indicates 7.9% are G using the Athey haplogroup predictor.[8] Of 20 Jews of Libya, 10% were found to be G.[9] These men seemingly were then living in Israel.

Morocco

In 147 samples taken in Morocco, 1% were found to be G.[1]

In another study 1% of 312 samples in Morocco were G.

Another study gathered samples only from hamlets in Morocco's Azgour Valley, where none of 33 samples were determined G.[10] These hamlets were selected because they were felt to be typically Berber in composition.

A study of 20 Moroccan Jews found 30% were G.[9] The tested men were then apparently living in Israel.

South Africa

In a 2011 study, in South Africa no G was found among 8 African men.[2] In a 2010 study, no G found in South Africa among 343 southeastern Bantu speakers or 183 Khoe-San speakers, but 5.7% of 157 South African whites were G.[11]

Anatolia, the Levant and Arabian Peninsula

Cyprus

Among 166 samples from Cyprus, 13.3% were G.

Iraq

Among 139 samples taken in Iraq in a 2003 study, 2.2% were found to be G.[12] In a 2011 study, 1.4% of 143 Marsh Arabs were found to be G, versus 1.9% of 154 other Iraqis.[13]

A 2004 study sampled 20 Iraqi Jews (apparently living in Israel), and 10% were found to be G2a (P15+).[9] Another study of Iraqi Jews in 2010 found 10.1% of 79 men were G.

Israel

Among 738 Jews in Israel 9.8% were found to be G. The G2a (P15+) types were in the majority, with G2b (formerly G2c) being the next most common type.[14]

Among the Gnostic Druze, G was found in 4% of 37 samples on the Golan Heights; in 14% of 183 samples in the Galilee; and in 12% of 35 samples in the Carmel.[15] Another study which sampled 20 Druze men apparently living in Israel, none had the G mutation.[9]

Among Palestinians apparently living in Israel, 75% of 20 samples were found to be G2a (P15+).[9] In the same study, among Samaritans in Israel none of 12 samples was G. In the Human Genome Diversity Cell Line Panel (CEPH-HDGP) "Central Israel" Palestinian sample (n=17), 59% (10) were G.

A study of 329 Druze men found 12.5% were haplogroup G. This study was not confined to Israel, but was probably mostly Israeli.

Jordan

Among 273 samples taken in Jordan, 5.5% were G.[5]

In another study, 5.9% of 101 Jordanian samples at Amman were G, and 0% of 45 samples in the Dead Sea area in Jordan were G.[16]

Kuwait

In 42 samples taken in Kuwait, 2.4% were G.[5]

In a study confined to Bedouin tribes of Kuwait, among 148 samples 3.4% were G. Most of these were found among the Aniza. All these were G2a (P15+).[17]

Lebanon

In 916 samples in a 2008 study from Lebanon, 6% were G.[18]

Among 322 samples from Lebanon in a 2010 study, 7.7% were G. Within the religious groups, 7.1% of 195 Catholic Maronites were G, 29.4% of 17 Greek Catholics, 5% of 60 Greek Orthodox, 7.6% of 26 Sunni Muslims, 6.2% of 16 Shiite Muslims and 0% of 9 Druze men.[19]

In 29 samples from a 2008 study among the Druze in Lebanon, none were G in contrast to significant percentages of G among them in Syria and Israel.[15]

Oman

Of 121 samples taken among Arabs of Oman, 2% were G.[4]

Palestine

Among 291 samples taken in Palestine 8.9% were G.[20]

Qatar

In 72 samples taken in Qatar, 2.8% were G. All were G2a (P15+).[21]

Saudi Arabia

Among 22 samples taken in Saudi Arabia in a 2005 study, 4.5% were G. In another study from 2009, of 157 Saudi samples, 0.64% were G1 and 2.55% G2.[22]

Syrian Arab Republic

Among 356 samples taken in Syria, 4.8% were G.[5]

In another study of Syria, 5.5% of 200 samples were G.[20] In yet another study, 3.5% of 87 Syrian samples were G.

In another study, among 26 samples taken among the Druze in Syria 14% were G.[15]

Turkey

Among 523 samples from Turkey in a 2004 study, 9.2% were G.[23] The G1/G1a samples were found only among the northeastern Turkey samples. The single G2b* was found in Kars Province in the far northeast. Of the 9.2% G total, the G samples were found in each of the following subgroups: (a) G2b*(M377+ M283-) n=1; (b) G1* (M342+) n=1; (c) G1a (P20+) n=4; (d) G2a* (P15+) n=37; (e) G2a1 (P16+) n=5; and (f) G2b (M286+) n=1. A 2011 study retested the same samples and found that within those listed G2a* (P15+) men, 10 were G2a3a (M406)[24]

A 2011 study found that in the west central Turkish towns of Foça and İzmir, 3% of 89 samples were G2a3a (M406+) and an additional 4% were unspecified other types of G.[24]

A 2012 study that sampled ethnic Armenians in eastern Turkey found no G1 (M285) among 207 men. But 2% of 104 samples at Sasun were G2a1 (P16) with no P16 found at Lake Van. In contrast, G2a (P15) but not G2a1 was found in 8% of Lake Van and 11% of Sasun men. Among 87 Kurmanji-speaking Kurds in southeastern Turkey in a 2005 study, 2.3% were found to be G. And among 27 Zazaki-speaking Kurds in the same area, 3.7% were G.[25]

A 2008 doctoral dissertation[26] that sampled 140 men in four towns in central Turkey found 4 of 49 men at "town 1" were G2, 1 of 30 at "town 2", and none of 31 and 30 men respectively at "town 3" and "town 4" were G2. However, the author only applied prediction software to STR samples to determine the haplogroups. He concluded that the genetic diversity found suggests "multiple ancestral populations contributed to the genetic make-up of the area." One G2 man had known origins in northeastern Turkey.

United Arab Emirates

In 164 samples taken in the United Arab Emirates, 4.2% were G. The majority were of the G1 type.[21]

Yemen

In 62 samples taken in Yemen, 1.6% were G. All were G2a (P15+).[21]

In another study that concentrated on the island of Soqotra, none of 63 samples was G.[27]

In another study among 20 Jewish Yemenis, 5% were G2a (P15+) and another 5% were G1 (M285+).[9] These men were apparently then living in Israel. A 2010 study of Jewish men found 0% of 74 Jewish men from Yemen were haplogroup G.

Caucasus Mountains Region

Armenia

Among 100 samples taken in Armenia for a 2003 study,[28] 11% were G. And a 2011 study.[29] found 11% of 57 Armenian samples were G1 and 11% G2a. A 2012 study found that none of 206 Armenian samples were G2a1 (P16), but 2% of 110 men in the Ararat Valley in the west and 1% of 96 men at Gardman in the east were G1 (M285). Much more of G2a (P15) but not G2a1 was found, totalling 9% of the Ararat Valley men and 4.5% of Gardman men.[30]

A 2010 study that concentrated on Jewish men found 21% of 57 Jewish men from Armenia were haplogroup G. Note that Jews in Armenia are mostly recent Ashkenazi and Georgian.

Azerbaijan

Among 72 samples taken in Azerbaijan 18% were G.[28]

In a study that concentrated on the Talysh of the southern tip of Azerbaijan, 3% of 40 samples were found to be G.[31]

A study that sampled Jews from Azerbaijan found 16% of 57 men were haplogroup G.[32]

Georgia

Among 61 samples taken in Georgia (2001), 30% were G.[33] Among 77 samples taken in Georgia (2003), 31% were G.[28] Georgia has the highest percentage of G among the general population recorded in any country. Among 66 samples taken in Georgia (2009), 31.6% were G2a (P15+). Of this 31.6% figure, 1.5% were G2a3a (M406+), and the remainder were unspecified other types of G2a.

Most of states worldwide recognize Abkhazia and South Ossetia as part of Georgia. In Abkhazia 55% of 60 samples were found to be G as listed in a 2009 presentation by Khadizhat Dibirova.[34] [35] [36] In a 2011 study,[29] 47% of 162 Abkhazians were found G2a. In South Ossetia 48% of 10 samples were found G2a. G1 was absent from both locations. Another 2011 study[37] found among 58 Abkhazians that 12% were G2a1a (P18), 21% were G2a3b1 (P303) and 24% other G2a (P15)

In a study of Jewish men, 4.8% of 62 Jewish men from Georgia were haplogroup G.[32]

Note: The study by Yunusbaev (2006) showed the tiny population of Northeast Caucasian language family Andic-speaking Chamalal to be 19% (N=5/27) G2a-P15, and all of this was an unknown sub-clade of G2a-P15 listed as "G2c" (currently classified as G2b)which was not defined in 2006 when this study was conducted (no SNP testing was done for true G2b-M377). Since this study tested only G-M201 and G2a-P15, it is possible that this sub-clade may actually be G2a1-P16, since a number of the likely G haplotypes from Daghestan are actually G2a1-P16. He also reported that 12% (N=76) of the Kumyks tested were Gwith that figure composed of 11% G2a (P15+) and 1% (1/76) listed as "G2c", which again at the time a sub-clade of G2a-P15, likely G2a1-P16).

In these Russian tabulations above (1) G2a3a-M406 man among the Avars and (1) G1-M285 man each found among Chechens and Adyghe were omitted to simplify the charts. Also, the 2011 Balanovsky study found 12% G2a3a-M406 among the Lezgins which are not included in the chart entry for them.

Asia

Afghanistan

In Pashtuns from Afghanistan haplogroup G2b 6.1%.[43]

China

These percentages of G were found in the following number of samples from China in a 2006 study:[44] (a) The Uyghurs who live primarily in far northwestern China 4.5% of 67.(b) The northern Han 2.3% of 44.(c) The southern Han 0% of 40.(d) Tibet 0% of 105.(e) The Zhuang who live in southern China or Vietnam, 0% of 20.(f) The Yao of southern China 0% of 60.(g) In Manchuria or among the Manchus in northeastern China, 0% of 93. (h) The Evenks who live principally along the border of northeastern China 0% of 31.(i) The Oroqen of northeastern China 0% of 22.(j) The Yi who live principally in southern China and who speak a Burmese language 0% of 43.(k) The Tujia of central China, 0% of 47.

A 2005 study that sampled five southern Chinese groups found the following percentages of G: (1) The Han less than 1% G in 166 samples.(2) The Miao 0% of 58.(3) The She 0% of 51.(4) The Tujia 0% of 49.(5) The Yao 0% of 60.

A 2008 study that concentrated on the island of Hainan off the southeastern Chinese coast found 0% G among 405 men from various island aborigine groups.[45]

A 2007 study that concentrated on the Mang of Yunnan Province in southern China found no G among 65 samples.[46]

Another 2007 study that sampled Tibet found 0% G among 156 samples

A 2010 study of northwestern China found G (M201) in 2% of 41 Kazakhs; 2% of 31 Tajikes; and 2% of 23 Ozbeks. No G was found among Tu, Xibo, Mongolian, Tataer, Uighur, Yugu, Kirghiz, Russ, Dongxiang, Bao'an and Salar persons.[47]

A 2011 study found only a few G samples among hundreds of samples around China of the majority Han population. The Han locales with single G samples were Liaoning in the northeast with one G2b (M377) man, Henan in the east central area with one G2a1 (P16) and Henan again with one G2a (P15) man not M286 or P16. This same study found 2% of Uyghur were G2a (P15) but not M286 or P16. These were all in Xinjiang in the northwest. And among 62 Hui men from Ningxia in the north central area, 1.6% were G1 and 1.6% were G2a (P15) but not P16 or M286. No G at all found among Hui elsewhere or in Tibet (262 samples) or among the Xibe, Hazak, Evenks, Bulang, Wa, Jing, Dai, Zhuang, Dong, Mulao, Buyi, Li, Maonan, Shui, Gelao, Miao, Yao, She, Bai, Hani, Jingpo, Lahu, Lisu Naxi, Yi, Tujia, Hui, Man or Kyrgyz men sampled at various locations.

In a newer genetic study, Y-DNA G-M201 was found in the genes of a few Han Chinese individuals from Ningxia province and Beijing.[48]

India

In 405 samples taken in India in a 2005 study, 1.5% were G. In a 2009 study covering mostly New Delhi and Andhra Pradesh 2% of 104 samples were G.

In another study in 2008 that concentrated on southern Indian locations,[49] less than 1% of 155 samples was G in Tamil Nadu, and the G percentage in Andhra Pradesh was 1% of 167 samples.

A study that sampled 1052 men within 25 diverse populations in India, only one man was G. This man was included in the samples labeled Kash. Pandit.[50]

A 2006 study that sampled 1074 men within 77 diverse Indian populations found only one man in central India who was G.[51]

Another study from 2009 found in 560 samples from northern India that 4% were G.[52] The authors found no G among 96 Bhargavas or 88 Chaturvedis (both Brahmins), but 1.7% of 118 other Brahmins, 9.7% of 154 Shia and 5.8% of 104 Sunni samples were G.

In a 2003 study of 286 men belonging to two tribal groups of Andhra Pradesh in southern India, as well as five caste groups from various parts of India, only one man in West Bengal was G.[53]

In a 2006 study of 728 Indian samples taken from among 36 populations and 18 castes, 1.2% were G. These were all G2a (P15+) men.[54] In this study many of the G2a men were contained within the samples of the Dravidian upper caste where G persons comprised 11.9% of 59 samples.

In a 2010 study sampling 45 Cochin Jews from southern India, none were haplogroup G. The same study found 6.5% of 31 Bene Israel Jews from Mumbai were G.[32]

In the YHRD database, among 44 samples taken among the Afridi Pashtuns in Uttar Pradesh, northern India, 28 (64%) were found to belong to haplogroup G.

In a 2010 study of Muslims in India, in Uttar Pradesh in n. India 2.3% of 129 Indian Sunni men were G as were 8% of 161 Indian Shia there. In Andhra Pradesh in southern India, 8% of 25 Iranian Shia were G. Among the Dawoodi Bohra of west and south India, no G was found in 76 samples, as was the case among Mappla of southern India.[55]

In a 2009 study of 621 samples from various components of the Indian caste system, G was found in 10.9% of 64 Gujarat Brahmins in the west and 3.3% there among 32 Maharashtra Brahmins and none among Gujarat Bhils. In the east, 11.1% of 27 Bihar Paswan were G, but none found among Bihar Brahmins and West Bengal Brahmins. In the central area, no G found among Uttar Pradesh Kols and Gonds, and among Madhya Pradesh Brahmins, Gonds and Saharia. In the north, 3.6% of 49 Punjab Brahmins were G and 2% of 51 J&K Kashmiri Pandists, but none found among J&K Kashmir Gujars or among Uttar Pradesh or Himachal Brahmins.[56]

Indonesia

In 80 samples taken in Indonesia, 0% were G.[44]

In another study confined to Western New Guinea none of 183 samples were G.

In a study of the northwestern end of the island of New Guinea among 162 samples from 13 populations none were G.[57]

In another study confined to the island of Sumba no G was found among 352 samples.[58]

A study that gathered 552 samples in Bali, 21 in western Indonesia and 55 in eastern Indonesia failed to find any G persons.

Iran

Of 33 samples taken in northern Iran, 15.2% were G. Of these 5 samples, 4 were G2a (P15+). And 12.8% of 117 samples from the south of that country were G. In this latter location the percentage of G1 almost equaled the G2a percentage. The authors did not provide information about locations sampled.[59]

Of 91 samples taken at unstated location(s) in northern Iran (2009), 2.2% were G.[5]

Of 50 samples taken from the Mazandarani in northern Iran west of the Caspian Sea, 14% were G. Likewise of 50 samples from the Gilaki in the same area, 10% were G.[60]

Of 50 samples taken from the Talysh along the southwestern shore of the Caspian Sea in north central Iran, 2% were G.[31]

Samples were taken in another study in Khuzestan Province of west central Iran, and 15% G found among 53 Bakhtiari in Izeh and 6% G among Arabs in Ahvaz.[61]

In a study of Jewish men, there were no haplogroup G men among 49 men with Iranian origins.[32]

Japan

In 259 samples taken among the following groups or locations in Japan: Ainu, Aomori, Okinawa, Shizuoka, Tokushima and Kyushu 0% were G.[44]

In another study, among 23 samples taken in Japan, none were G.[54]

Kazakhstan

Two Kazakh tribes are believed to have the highest levels of Haplogroup G in the world. This is striking partly because most Kazakh males fall into C3.

A study of the Kazakh Madzhars (Madjars) in the Torgay area of Kazakhstan, 86.7% of 45 samples were G. This is the highest concentration of G reported anywhere in the world so far. All the samples were G1.[62]

A limited study has found Haplogroup G-M285 (G1) among four out of five Argyns sampled in central Kazakhstan. The Argyns, who were previously known as the Basmyl, were first documented in the 6th century, residing in what is now the Xinjiang region of China.

Korea

In 75 samples taken in Korea in a 2006 study, 0% were G.[44] Among another 85 samples also taken in 2006 in Korea, 0% were G.[63] A 2011 study of 64 Korean samples, again found no G among them.[64]

Malaysia

In 32 samples taken among Malays (presumably from Malaysia), 6.3% were G.

Mongolia

In 149 samples taken in Mongolia, 0.7% were G.[44] On 47 samples taken also in 2006 in Mongolia, 0% were G.[63]

Nepal

In 188 samples taken in a 2007 study in 3 locations in Nepal, none were G.[65] Also in Nepal among 173 Tharus in Terai, no G was found in a 2009 study.[66]

Pakistan

Of 638 samples taken in Pakistan, 2.7% were G. This same study found the percentage of G among 96 samples from Pakistani Pathans was 11.5%; among 44 samples from Kalash men was 18.1% and among 97 samples from Burusho men was 1%all groups of northern Pakistan.

Among 176 Pakistani samples gathered in another study, G2a (P15+) men represented 4.6% of the total. G1 (M285+) men represented 0.6%, and G2b (M377+) men were 1.1%.[54]

Papua New Guinea

In a large study of Northern Island Melanesia within Papua New Guinea (2006) none of 685 samples was G.[67] Most of these were Papuan-speaking persons.

In 46 samples taken in Papua New Guinea (2006), 0% were G.

Italy

In a large 2007 study of 11 regions of peninsular Italy and Elba,[90] 10.7% of 699 samples were G. The authors did not sample the northwestern Milan area and the high mountains of the central north. The Val Badia samples in the far northeast of Italy had an atypical low 3% of 34 samples. The other areas all ranged 7% to 15% G. Elba had 11% of 95 samples as G.

A 2003 study of Italy had found 11.8% of 51 samples in Sicily; 8.1% of 37 samples in Calabria; 14.1% of 78 samples in Sardinia; and 10% of 50 samples in north central Italy were G.[82]

Among a subgroup of these 930 where geographical information was available, the percentage on the southeastern coast was 13.9%; on the northeastern coast 20.9% and 13.9% in the inland central area.[92] This study indicated an unusual percentage of G men there with STR marker value of 23 at DYS390—a percentage not seen in continental Europe where the 23 value is uncommon.

In another Sardinian study confined to towns in the northern sector of the island, 14% of 100 samples were all found to be G2a (P15+) based only on a probability calculation.[93] The G2 category as represented by P15 became G2a in the period in which this study was conducted. The men were predicted just "G2" in the study. But P15 (now G2a) was probably the intended category.
