Haplogroup HIJK

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Haplogroup HIJK
Possible time of originApprox. 49,000-59,000 BP+ BCE
(i.e. similar to estimates for Haplogroups GHIJK, H and IJK)[1][verification needed]
Possible place of originEurasia
AncestorHaplogroup GHIJK
DescendantsH, IJK
Defining mutationsF929/M578/PF3494/S6397[2]

Haplogroup HIJK, defined by the SNPs F929, M578, PF3494 and S6397,[2] is a common Y-chromosome haplogroup. Like its parent macrohaplogroup GHIJK, Haplogroup HIJK and its subclades comprise the vast majority of the world's male population.

HIJK branches subsequently into two direct descendants: IJK (L15/M523/PF3492/S137) and H (L901/M2939). IJK in turn splits into IJ (F-L15) and K (M9). The descendants of Haplogroup IJ are haplogroups I and J, while Haplogroup K is, ultimately, the ancestor of major haplogroups M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, L, and T.

Distribution

[edit]

HIJK has not been reported in modern populations or in ancient human remains. Previously basal paragroup HIJK* was reported in a Mesolithic European (Magdalenian), GoyetQ-2, and Upper Paleolithic European (Gravettian), Vestonice16.[3] Later study in 2023 with high quality sequencing of Magdalenian, GoyetQ-2, Gravettian, Vestonice16 were assigned with Haplogroup I.[4]

Populations with high proportions of males who belong to descendant major haplogroups of Haplogroup HIJK live across widely dispersed areas and populations.

Males belonging to other subclades of IJK are concentrated in, for example:
