Haplogroup Q-P89.1 is a subclade of Y-DNA Haplogroup Q-MEH2.[1] Haplogroup Q-P89.1 is defined by the presence of the P89.1 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP). In 2010, Q-P89.1 was reclassified as "private" and removed from the haplotree.[2]
Q-P89.1 has descendants in the Northwest Territory of modern Canada. It was in pre-Columbian American populations that it was discovered.[1][3]
Q-P89.1 is present in pre-Columbian populations in the Canadian Northwest.[1]
Population | Paper | N | Percentage | SNP Tested | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Gwich’in | Dulik 2012 | 0/33 | ~0.00% | P89.1 | |
Tłįchǫ | Dulik 2012 | 1/37 | ~2.70% | P89.1 | |
Inuvialuit | Dulik 2012 | 0/56 | ~0.00% | P89.1 | |
Inupiat | Dulik 2012 | 0/5 | ~0.00% | P89.1 |
Because samples from Asia have only sporadically been tested for this lineage, its frequency there is uncertain.
Q-P89.1 is currently defined by only the P89.1 SNP.
