Laos: haplogroups

FamilyTreeDNA has 3 kits with a Y-DNA result and 4 kits with mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA). That is too few for a summary: with fewer than 50 kits the percentages are shaky, and the site draws no conclusions from them.

FTDNA Discover holds about 40 more samples here that are not in the public tree, mostly from academic studies (estimate from the copy of 13 November 2026); this page is built from the public FTDNA tree.

Paternal line · Y-DNA

3 kits · 1 branch
Main branches of the Y tree. Each branch counts every kit in it and in its sub-branches; sub-branches are indented. Age is how many years ago the branch's common ancestor lived (TMRCA).
O
3 of 3 (3 of 3, 95% confidence interval: 44–100%) 32k years

Maternal line · mtDNA

4 kits · 5 branches
Main mt-tree branches grouped by letter, sub-branches indented. Each branch counts every kit in it and in its sub-branches. Age is how many years ago the branch's common foremother lived, from FTDNA data where available.
M
2 of 4 (2 of 4, 95% confidence interval: 15–85%) 53k years
M8a2a1
1 of 4 (1 of 4, 95% confidence interval: 5–70%) 11k years
M74
1 of 4 (1 of 4, 95% confidence interval: 5–70%) 37k years
B4b'd'e'j
1 of 4 (1 of 4, 95% confidence interval: 5–70%) 39k years
K1a4
1 of 4 (1 of 4, 95% confidence interval: 5–70%) 11k years

YFull

The same country on YFull #

The same country at the second company, YFull. Its samples are placed on the FTDNA tree by shared mutations, so the branches are comparable. FTDNA share on the left, YFull on the right, then the difference in percentage points. Republics and other sub-regions are taken out of the country, as at FTDNA. Starred branches are nearly empty at YFull: every test there is whole-genome and reaches the fine branches. Only YFull customers (YF number) are counted, no ancient DNA. YFull data of 2026-11-02.

Y-DNA

YFull has no samples from this country.

mtDNA

YFull has no samples from this country.

New this month #

FTDNA: how much the kit count grew between the tree copies of 2026-10-09 and 2026-11-12. A kit that moved to a new sub-branch after refinement is not counted as new. YFull: samples YFull itself marks as new, in the copy of 2026-11-02; YFull drops the mark after a few weeks.
