Haplogroup L2 is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup with a widespread modern distribution, particularly in Subequatorial Africa. Its L2a subclade is a somewhat frequent and widely distributed mtDNA cluster on the continent, as well as among those in the Americas.

Find out which of the L2a branches and 100 countries that you belong to with the most comprehensive mtDNA test! Every new mtFull Sequence test result helps improve the tree structure and age estimates. A popular genealogy strategy is to expand your part of the tree by encouraging distant relatives to test.

Haplogroup L2a is the most common and widely distributed sub-Saharan African haplogroup and is also frequent in the Americas (∼19%). The wide distribution of L2a in Africa makes identifying geographical origins of lineages difficult.

2015年7月27日 · Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup L2 originated in Western Africa but is nowadays spread across the entire continent. L2 movements were previously postulated to be related...

2015年4月2日 · L2 is an mtDNA Haplogroup. This phylogenetic tree of haplogroup L2 subclades is based on the paper by Mannis van Oven and Manfred Kayser Updated comprehensive phylogenetic tree of global human mitochondrial DNA variation [PMID 18853457] and subsequent published research.

In human mitochondrial genetics, L is the mitochondrial DNA macro-haplogroup that is at the root of the anatomically modern human (Homo sapiens) mtDNA phylogenetic tree. As such, it represents the most ancestral mitochondrial lineage of all currently living modern humans, also dubbed " Mitochondrial Eve ".

2010年3月17日 · Our study of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences and Y chromosome SNPs of three different southern Tuareg groups from Mali, Burkina Faso and the Republic of Niger reveals a West Eurasian-North...

In human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup L2 is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup typical of Africa. Its subclade L2a is a somewhat frequent and widespread mtDNA cluster in Africa, as well as in the African diaspora Americans (19%). (Salas 2002) et al. L2 is a common African lineage.
