Haplogroup Q-M346 is a subclade of Y-DNA Haplogroup Q. Haplogroup Q-M346 is defined by the presence of the M346 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP).

Origin and distribution

Q-M346 was discovered in Central Asia and announced in Sengupta 2006. [2] A latter paper suggested that its ancestral state was isolated to India, [3] but this has since been refuted by its presence in West Asia, [4] Europe[ citation needed ] and the Americas. [5]

Asia

Q-M346 has a wide distribution across much of Asia. [6] [7] [8] [9]

The Americas

In the Americas, the founding paternal lineages include those who are Q-M346 but do not belong to the Q-M3 lineage. [5] [10]

Associated SNPs

Q-M346 is marked by the presence of the M346 SNP. Since the discovery of M346 several additional SNPs have been found to also be associated with Q-M346. These SNP's include: L56 and L57. These SNPs appear to be "parallel" to M346. [1]
