Information About Haplogroups
Your paternal ancestral genealogy has been handed down from father to son, generation after generation. The test works by looking at the Y chromosome and with special focus on DNA sequences known as Short Tandem Repeats. Analysis of these key parts of your DNA will enable us to discover your very own paternal roots.
Our test will show you your paternal haplogroup affiliation. A haplogroup is an important term, referring to the sets of genes inherited from your distant ancestors. These sets of genes are distinct and unique to a group of individuals and will be shared by all individuals in that group. These groups can be matched to a relatively precise geographical region and their migration path traced. A comparison between your DNA and the DNA of the many haplogroups in our database will help us match you to your own haplogroups.
Will the Test Tell Me Something About My Forefather’s Nationality?
Our Paternal Lineage Ancestry DNA Test traces your roots back to mankind’s origins, in the earliest part of human history. Many thousands of years ago, the continents existed just like they exist today. However, the many countries as we know them today are a very recent addition in the history of mankind. Our test will link you and your ancestors to geographical regions but not countries per se.
Can Women Take the Paternal Lineage Ancestry DNA Test?
Females do not carry Y chromosomes and cannot take a Paternal Lineage ancestry test but this does not mean they cannot discover their paternal ancestry. If a female wants to learn more about her ancient origins from her father’s side of the family, she can simply ask a male relative, such as a brother or father, to take the test. This test kit is usually intended for use by a single person. If two individuals (for example, you and a sibling) plan to take the test, please let us know when placing your order. You can do this by leaving a note in the comment box at checkout or by sending us an email. Not informing us ahead of time may lead to processing delays and additional charges.
