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%.
U5a1: 1,915 samples. The common foremother lived 8,400 years ago (7,900–8,900); the branch split off 16k years ago (12k–20k).
