G-L140 G2a-L140
G-L140 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 4,156 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. Almost all of its kits sit in a single sub-branch, G-PF3345, so this branch gets no conclusions of its own. It is most common in these samples: Russia (Republic of Adygea) (34% of kits), Georgia (Republic of Abkhazia) (29% of kits), Russia (Republic of Kabardino-Balkaria) (17% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 12k years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 9,800 to 13k years ago. YFull has 1,092 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 11k years ago.
Where it is found #
Countries and regions given by the branch's carriers. “Share of branch” is the part of the branch's kits that belongs to the country. “Share of country” is the part of that country's kits that falls into the branch; it is computed only for countries with at least 50 kits.

Sub-branches #
Sub-branches that have their own page (50 kits or more). The bar is the kits in the sub-branch with its own sub-branches; the age is when its common ancestor lived.
2 small sub-branches more without a page: 15 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 77 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 173 distinct among 524 kits. FTDNA gives surnames per branch only, with no country attached, so they cannot be split by country.

The same branch on YFull #
YFull builds its tree from the same SNPs; the node is matched by name or by a shared SNP. TMRCA is when the common ancestor of all samples lived, formed is when the branch split from its parent. Intervals are 95%.
G-L140: 1,092 samples. The common ancestor lived 11k years ago (9,300–12k); the branch split off 12k years ago (11k–13k).
