FTDNA mt-tree branch

V3

V3 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA mt tree with 391 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Netherlands (1.3% of kits), Switzerland (1.0% of kits), New Zealand (1.0% of kits). The branch's common foremother lived about 6,000 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 5,600 to 6,500 years ago. YFull has 136 samples in this branch and dates its common foremother to 2,200 years ago.

YFull

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%.

V3: 136 samples. The common foremother lived 2,200 years ago (1,700–2,900); the branch split off 2,900 years ago (2,900–3,000).
