NOTES:
- Identical SNPs that were discovered separately are listed in alphabetical order, not necessarily in
the order of discovery, and separated by "/". Examples: M207/UTY2, M306/S1, M173/P241, SRY1532.2/SRY10831.2,

M167/SRY2627, S28/U152, L2/S139, L20/S144, L21/S145, M222/USP9Y+3636.
- The position of L196 is undertain with respect to the position of Z49
- L405/L584 (ChrY:27141305) is a triallelic SNP with allele values "A", "C", and "T". A value of "A" indicates haplogroup Y(xP)
and is referred to as L405-. A value of "C" indicates haplogroup P and is referred to as L405+ and a value of "T" indicates
haplogroup R1b1a2a1c and is referred to as L584+.
- L342.2 is known to co-mutate with L319.4, L348.3 and
L349.2 in haplogroup R1a; all should be derived if any one of them is.
Listed 7 Aug 2011.
- Due to lack of positive control samples for M56, M157.1, M64.2, M87, M204, P98, PK5, and M434, the positions of those
private or uncommon SNPs in the haplotree are uncertain with respect to the positions of Z93, Z280, and L176.1/S179.1.
- P25 is an unreliable SNP with a 2% reversion rate within R1b1. It should not be used by
itself to classify individuals. For further details see Adams et al (2006) and
Discussion of P25
- L49 is a recurrent mutation in Haplogroup R and may be generally unstable in Haplogroup R. In haplogroup
R1b1a2a, L49.1 is phylogenetically equivalent to L23. In haplogroup R1a1a1, L49.2 is located under M417.
In haplogroup R2a, L49.3 is located at or near P267.
- SNP SRY1532/SRY10831 appears twice on the Y-DNA Haplogroup tree. It is first seen as a mutation
SRY1532.1/SRY10831.1 which is reported as a positive in BT and then reappears as a back mutation
SRY1532.2/SRY10831.2 which is reported as a negative in R1a.
- Thomas Krahn has developed a new primer for DYS439-Null (aka L1, S26) that gives a score of 12 rather than null.
- Thanks to Jim Wilson and Thomas Krahn for their consultation on Haplogroup R.
- Data from the 1000 Genomes Project suggests that Z220 is downstream from Z209 and Z278 is downstream of Z216.
Listed 26 June 2012.
- S424 and S426 are not located under R-L1336or R-L130, but it is unknown if L1336 or L130 is located under R-S424
(although it is regarded as unlikely). Further testing this year will clarify the exact relationship between the SNPs.
