Haplogroup H (Y-DNA), also known as H-L901/M2939, is a Y-chromosome haplogroup.

Contents

The primary branch H1 (H-M69) and its subclades is one of the most predominant haplogroups amongst populations in South Asia, particularly its descendant H1a1 (M52). A primary branch of H-M52, H1a1a (H-M82), is found commonly among the Roma, who originated in South Asia and migrated into the Middle East and Europe, around the beginning of the 2nd millennium CE, and the Khmer people who got under influence from Indian populations. [4] The much rarer primary branch H3 (Z5857) is also concentrated in South Asia.

However, the primary branch H2 (P96) seems to have been found in sparse levels primarily in Europe and West Asia since prehistory. It has been found in remains of the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB), which is part of the Pre-Pottery Neolithic, a Neolithic culture centered in upper Mesopotamia and the Levant, dating to c. 10,800 – c.8,500 years ago, and also the later Linear Pottery culture and Neolithic Iberia. [5] [6] H2 likely entered Europe during the Neolithic with the spread of agriculture. [6] [7] Its present distribution is made up of various individual cases spread out throughout Europe and West Asia today. [8]

Structure

H-L901/M2939 is a direct descendant of Haplogroup GHIJK. There are, in turn, three direct descendants of H-L901/M2939 – their defining SNPs are as follows:


Ancient distribution

H-L901/M2939 is believed to have split from HIJK 48,500 years before present. [10] It seems to represent the main Y-Chromosome haplogroup of the paleolithic inhabitants of South Asia. Possible site of introduction may be South Asia, since it is highly concentrated there. [11]

With limited ancient DNA testing in South Asia, accordingly there is a limited amount of ancient samples for H1a, despite it being a populous and well distributed haplogroup today. The first set of ancient DNA from South Asia was published in March 2018. [14] 65 samples were collected from the Swat Valley of northern Pakistan, 2 of which belonged to H1a. [14]

H2

The earliest sample of H2 is found in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B culture of the Levant 10,000 years ago. [15] From ancient samples, it is clear that H2 also has a strong association with the spread of agriculture from Anatolia into Europe, and is commonly found with haplogroup G2a. [16] H2 was found in Neolithic Anatolia, as well as in multiple later Neolithic cultures of Europe, such as the Vinča culture in Serbia, [17] and the Megalith culture of Western Europe. [17]

The 2021 study "Using Y-chromosome capture enrichment to resolve haplogroup H2 shows new evidence for a two-path Neolithic expansion to Western Europe" [7] found that while H2 is less than 0.2% in modern-day western European populations it was more common during the Neolithic, between 1.5 and 9%. They identified two major clades H2m and H2d. With respect to the current ISOGG nomenclature, H2m appears to be defined by a mix of H2, H2a, H2a1 and H2c1a SNPs while H2d appears to be defined by two H2b1 SNPs, and four additional SNPs which were previously undetected. They estimated TMRCA for H2d and H2m was  ~15.4 kya with H2m and H2d estimated TMRCAs of  ~11.8 and  ~11.9 kya respectively. H2 diversity probably existed in Near-Eastern hunter-gatherers and early farmers, and subsequently spread via the Neolithic expansion into Central and Western Europe. H2d was found along the inland/Danubian route into central Europe, but most H2m individuals are found along the Mediterranean route into Western Europe, the Iberian Peninsula and ultimately, Ireland.

There were also two occurrences of H2a found in the Neolithic Linkardstown burials in the southeast Ireland. [18] More Neolithic H2 samples have been found in Germany and France. [19]

Modern distribution

H1a

South Asia

H-M69 is common among populations of Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Pakistan, with lower frequency in Afghanistan. [2] The highest frequency of Halpogroup H found in tribal groups such as 87% among Koraga, 70% among Koya and 62% among Gond. [28] [29] The high frequencies of H-M69 are in India, in both Dravidian and Indo-Aryan castes (32.9%)., [4] [30] in Dhaka, Bangladesh (35.71%), [31] and H-M52 among Kalash (20.5%) in Pakistan. [32] [29]

Haplogroup H is typically found among Indo-Aryan, Dravidian and Tribal (Indian as well as Pakistani Kalash) populations in the Indian subcontinent. In Europe it is mostly found among Roma, who belong predominantly (between 7% and 50%) to the H1a (M82) subclade.

Haplogroup H-M69 has been found in:

  • Bangladesh - 35.71% (15/42) in samples from Dhaka, [31] and 17.72% (115/649) among Bengali samples from various areas of the country. [33]
  • India - Divided into zones below:
    • South India – 27.2% (110/405) of a sample of unspecified ethnic composition. [34] [35] Koraga people carry 87% and Koya tribe have 70% halpogroup H. [28] [29] Gondi people carry around 62% of halpogroup H. [36] Another study has found haplogroup H-M69 in 26.4% (192/728) of an ethnically diverse pool of samples from various regions of India. [4]
    • West India - In Maharashtra - 33.3% of a sample of (68/204) [37] and in Gujarat, 20.69% (12/58) among Gujaratis in USA. [31] 13.8% (4/29) among unspesified Gujaratis in India, [38] 26% (13/50)among Dawoodi Bohra, [39] 27.27 (6/22) among Bhils, [40] 1.56% among Gujarati Brahmins [40]
    • North India - According to a study (Trivedi2007) it is found 24.5% (44/180) in both Caste and tribal population of North India. Most frequently found : 44.4% (8/18) among Uttar Pradesh (UP) Chamar, [4] 20.7% (6/29) among UP Rajputs, [4] 18.3% (9/49) among New Delhi Hindus, [41] 16.13% (5/31) among UP Brahmins, [40] 11.11% (6/54) among UP Kols, [40] 10.53% (2/19) among Himachal Brahmin, [40] 10.2% (5/49) in J&K Kashmiri Gujars, [40] 9.8% (5/51) in J&K Kashmiri Pandits, [40]
    • East India 14.81% (4/27) among Bihar Paswan, [40] 9.7% (3/31) among Bengalis of West Bengal (WB), [29] 5.56% (1/18) among West Bengal Brahmins. [4]
  • Sri Lanka – in 25.3% (23/91) of a sample of unspecified ethnic composition [34] [35] and in 10.3% (4/39) of a sample of Sinhalese. [29]
  • Nepal – one study has found Haplogroup H-M69 in approximately 12% of a sample of males from the general population of Kathmandu (including 4/77 H-M82, 4/77 H-M52(xM82), and 1/77 H-M69(xM52, APT)) and 6% of a sample of Newars (4/66 H-M82). [42] In another study, Y-DNA that belongs to Haplogroup H-M69 has been found in 25.7% (5/37 = 13.5% H-M69 from a village in Morang District, 9/57 = 15.8% H-M69 from a village in Chitwan District, and 30/77 = 39.0% H-M69 from another village in Chitwan District) of Tharus in Nepal. [43]
  • Pakistan – in 4.1% Burusho, 20.5% Kalash, 4.2% Pashtun, and 6.3% in other Pakistanis. [4] [32] Another study has found haplogroup H-M69 in approximately 8% (3/38) of a sample of Burusho (also known as Hunza), including 5% (2/38) H-M82(xM36, M97, M39/M138) and 3% (1/38) H-M36. [44]
  • Afghanistan – in 6.1% Pashtun, [2] in 7.1% Tajik. [2]

Roma people

Haplogroup H-M82 is a major lineage cluster in the Roma, especially Balkan Roma, among whom it accounts for approximately as high as 60% of males. [45] A 2-bp deletion at M82 locus defining this haplogroup was also reported in one-third of males from traditional Roma populations living in Bulgaria, Spain, and Lithuania. [46] High prevalence of Asian-specific Y chromosome haplogroup H-M82 supports their Indian origin and a hypothesis of a small number of founders diverging from a single ethnic group in India (Gresham et al. 2001).

Within the H-M82 haplogroup, an identical 8-microsatellite Y-chromosome haplotype is shared by nearly 30% of Gypsy men, an astonishing degree of preservation of a highly differentiated lineage, previously described only in Jewish priests. (A newly discovered founder population: the Roma/Gypsies - Stanford Medicine 2005) [47]

Important studies show a limited introgression of the typical Roma Y-chromosome haplogroup H1 in several European groups, including approximately 0.61% in Gheg Albanians and 2.48% in Tosk Albanians. [48]

Europe, Caucasus, Central Asia & Middle East

Haplogroup H1a is found at much lower levels outside of the Indian subcontinent and the Roma populations but is still present in other populations:

  • Europe - 0.9% (1/113) H-M82 in a sample of Serbians, [45] 2% (1/57) H-M82 in a sample of Macedonian Greeks, [41] 1% (1/92 H-M82) [41] to 2% (1/50 H-M69) [52] of Ukrainians, H1a2a in 1.3% (1/77) of a sample of Greeks. [32]

[60]

East & South-East Asia

At the easternmost extent of its distribution, Haplogroup H-M69 has been found in Thais from Thailand (1/17 = 5.9% H-M69 Northern Thailand; [61] 2/290 = 0.7% H-M52 Northern Thai; [62] 2/75 = 2.7% H-M69(xM52) and 1/75 = 1.3% H-M52(xM82) general population of Thailand [63] ), Balinese (19/551 = 3.45% H-M69), [35] Tibetans (3/156 = 1.9% H-M69(xM52, APT)), [42] Filipinos from southern Luzon (1/55 = 1.8% H-M69(xM52) [63] ), Bamars from Myanmar (1/59 = 1.7% H-M82, with the relevant individual having been sampled in Bago Region), [64] Chams from Binh Thuan, Vietnam (1/59 = 1.7% H-M69), [61] and Mongolians (1/149 = 0.7% H-M69). [34] The subclade H-M39/M138 has been observed in the vicinity of Cambodia, including one instance in a sample of six Cambodians [4] and one instance in a sample of 18 individuals from Cambodia and Laos. [44] A genome study about Khmer people resulted in an average amount of 16,5% of Khmer belonging to y-DNA H. [4]

H1b

H1b is defined by the SNPs - B108, Z34961, Z34962, Z34963, and Z34964. [65] Only discovered in 2015, H1b was detected in a single sample from an individual in Myanmar. [66] Due to only being classified recently, there are currently no studies recording H1b in modern populations.

H2

H2 (H-P96), which is defined by seven SNPs – P96, M282, L279, L281, L284, L285, and L286 – is the only primary branch found mainly outside South Asia. [65] Formerly named F3, H2 was reclassified as belonging to haplogroup H due to sharing the marker M3035 with H1. [67] While being found in numerous ancient samples, H2 has only been found scarcely in modern populations across West Eurasia. [5]

H3

H3 (Z5857) like H1, is also mostly centered in South Asia, albeit at much lower frequencies. [66]

Like other branches of H, due to it being newly classified it is not explicitly found in modern population studies. Samples belonging to H3 were likely labeled under F*. [66] In consumer testing, it has been found principally among South Indians and Sri Lankans, and other areas of Asia such as Arabia as well. [10]


The following gives a summary of most of the studies which specifically tested for the subclades H1a1a (H-M82) and H2 (H-P96), formerly F3, showing its distribution in different part of the world. [74]

In human genetics, a human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup is a haplogroup defined by specific mutations in the non-recombining portions of DNA on the male-specific Y chromosome (Y-DNA). Individuals within a haplogroup share similar numbers of short tandem repeats (STRs) and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The Y-chromosome accumulates approximately two mutations per generation, and Y-DNA haplogroups represent significant branches of the Y-chromosome phylogenetic tree, each characterized by hundreds or even thousands of unique mutations.

Haplogroup E-V68, also known as E1b1b1a, is a major human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup found in North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Western Asia and Europe. It is a subclade of the larger and older haplogroup, known as E1b1b or E-M215. The E1b1b1a lineage is identified by the presence of a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation on the Y chromosome, which is known as V68. It is a subject of discussion and study in genetics as well as genetic genealogy, archaeology, and historical linguistics.

Y-DNA haplogroups in populations of Europe are haplogroups of the male Y-chromosome found in European populations.

Listed here are notable ethnic groups and populations from Western Asia, Egypt and South Caucasus by human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups based on relevant studies. The samples are taken from individuals identified with the ethnic and linguistic designations in the first two columns, the third column gives the sample size studied, and the other columns give the percentage of the particular haplogroup. Some old studies conducted in the early 2000s regarded several haplogroups as one haplogroup, e.g. I, G and sometimes J were haplogroup 2, so conversion sometimes may lead to unsubstantial frequencies below.

Y-DNA haplogroups in populations of South Asia are haplogroups of the male Y-chromosome found in South Asian populations.

Listed here are the human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups found in various ethnic groups and populations from North Africa and the Sahel (Tuaregs).
