From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Haplogroup P

Possible time of origin 50,000 years[1]
Possible place of origin Southeast Asia

In human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup P is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup.

Origin

Haplogroup P is a descendant of Haplogroup R.

Distribution

Today, P is found in the Australian continent, especially in Papuan, Melanesian Australian Aborigines,[3] and Filipinos. It was found in the Aeta of Bataan at 40%[4]

Subclades
