Haplogroup Q-L54

Haplogroup Q-L54
Possible place of origin Eurasia
Ancestor Q-L53
Descendants Q-L330, Q-M3, Q-Z780
Defining mutations L54

Haplogroup Q-L54 is a subclade of Y-DNA haplogroup Q-L53. Q-L54 is defined by the presence of the L54 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP).

Distribution

Q-L54 has descendants across Western and Central Europe, the North and East of Asia, and the Americas. It includes two of the major pre-Columbian paternal lineages in the Americas: Q-M3 and Q-Z780. Its descendant lines also include the Central Asian Q-L330 lineage. The boy Anzick-1, which is 12,6 thousand years ago on the territory of Montana, Y-chromosome refers to haplogroup Q-L54*(xM3).[1][2]

Associated SNP's

Q-L54 is currently defined by the L54 SNP alone.

  9. Haplogroup K2b1 (P397/P399) is similiar to the former Haplogroup MS, but has a broader and more complex internal structure.
  10. Haplogroup S (S-M230) was previously known as Haplogroup K5.
