R1b1b (PF6279/V88; previously R1b1a2) is defined by the presence of SNP marker V88, the discovery of which was announced in 2010 by Cruciani et al. [44] Apart from individuals in southern Europe and Western Asia, the majority of R-V88 was found in the Sahel, especially among populations speaking Afroasiatic languages of the Chadic branch.

Haplogroup R-M269 is the sub-clade of human Y-chromosome haplogroup R1b that is defined by the SNP marker M269. According to ISOGG 2020 it is phylogenetically classified as R1b1a1b. It underwent intensive research and was previously classified as R1b1a2 (2003 to 2005), R1b1c (2005 to 2008), R1b1b2 (2008 to 2011) and R1b1a1a2 (2011 to 2020). [7]

R1b is the most common haplogroup in Western Europe, reaching over 80% of the population in Ireland, the Scottish Highlands, western Wales, the Atlantic fringe of France, the Basque country and Catalonia. It is also common in Anatolia and around the Caucasus, in parts of Russia and in Central and South Asia.

It is estimated that over 100 million European men belong to haplogroup R1b1a2 (M269) , and that greater than 70% of western European men belong to the specific clade defined by SNP L11 . The focus of the work was finding phyologenetic Y-DNA variants in the two largest sub-clades of L11: S116/P312 (rs34276300) and U106/S21 (rs16981293).

R-M269 (also known as R1b1a2) is the most dominant subclade of R-M343 (R1b), which is itself the most common Y-DNA haplogroup in Western Europe. This haplogroup is believed to have originated about 9,500 years ago in the region of the Black Sea, …

R1b-M269 (old R1b1a2) R1b-M269 is by far the most frequent subgroup today, more than half of Western European and (due to the colonization) American males belong to this line, including over 99% of the R1b project members. It is thought to have originated most likely in East Europe or West Asia around 8000 years ago(6500-8500 years with ...

北支R1b1a（P297）似乎起源于高加索、东安纳托利亚或美索不达米亚北部，然后越过高加索，从那里入侵了欧洲和中亚。 R1b1b（M335）则仅在安纳托利亚发现。 据推测大约10500年前，美索不达米亚北部的R1b人群（可能与相邻的单倍群J2部落一起）是第一批驯化原牛的人。 R1b部落起源于猛犸象猎人，当猛犸象灭绝后，他们开始狩猎其它大型动物，如古代欧洲野牛（aurochs）。 从新石器时代开始（12000年前开始），随着中东一带所谓的“新月沃土”（Fertile Crescent） …

2021年5月27日 · Haplogroup R1b (R-M343) is the most frequently occurring Y-chromosome haplogroup in Western Europe and the most common haplogroup in the genetic genealogy databases. R1b1a2 (R-M269) is the dominant branch of R1b in Western Europe.

IGENEA identified Tutankhamun’s DNA as R1b1a2 (short Name M269) This is a sub clade of R1b and an examination of R1b distribution gives surprising results. It is the Atlantic Seaboard which is dominated by R1b and the major sub clade supporting that domination is R1b1a2.

The authors have used an online community approach, and tools that were readily available via the Internet, to discover genealogically and therefore phylogenetically relevant Y-chromosome polymorphisms within core haplogroup R1b1a2-L11/S127 (rs9786076). Presented here is the analysis of 135 unrelate …
