Paternal line · Y-DNA

n=4,411 · 24 branches shown

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).

agreement with YFull · Y

how closely the Y major-branch make-up matches between FTDNA and YFull. 100% is identical, below 80% is visibly different.

reached the finest branch: YFull / FTDNA

share of YFull samples and FTDNA kits that reached the finest branch of the FTDNA tree. On average a YFull sample sits 37.2 branchings from the root, an FTDNA kit 31.3

Big Y

rough share of kits with a Big Y test, a full read of the Y chromosome. It is estimated from the branches where the region's kits sit, so it is an estimate, not a count.
