STR Markers
There have now been some 655 haplotypes collected from various public databases, SMGF and Surname Projects. Because of privacy concerns, I will only display the results from those participants who have lodged their results with a public database such as Ysearch or Ybase.
Besides the STR markers that I have already described as identifying our cluster, it now emerges that DYS716=24 for our cluster, while NO other clusters in R1b, or indeed any other haplogroup have values of 24. Truly a new defining marker for our cluster.
The STR markers of all those who have lodged their results in Ysearch or Ybase can be downloaded in these MS Excel spreadsheets.
