What to do with your Geno 2.0 results

From ISOGG Wiki

Transfer your results to Family Tree DNA

Geno 2.0 participants can transfer their Y-SNP and mtDNA SNP results to Family Tree DNA where they can participate in Surname DNA projects, mtDNA haplogroup projects, Y-DNA haplogroup projects and geographical DNA projects. To transfer results you can use this direct link on the FTDNA website. Alternatively see the instructions on how to transfer Genographic results in the FTDNA FAQs. See also the blog post by Roberta Estes on Transferring Results from National Geographic to Family Tree DNA.

Raw data - additional analysis

By downloading Geno 2.0 raw data, as explained on this page, Geno 2.0 Raw Data, you can use the data with Admixture analyses and Autosomal DNA tools. The Y-chromosome SNPs can be used for Y-DNA haplogroup research (see below).

Haplogroup analysis

Chris Morley has developed a Y-SNP subclade predictor which can be used on raw Geno 2.0 data. Given a set of Y-SNP calls the tool will (i) predict the subclade, (ii) show the phylogenetic placement (when available) of reported SNPs, and (iii) identify unplaced positive SNPs. It can use either the ISOGG tree or the author's experimental tree as the basis for classification. See also the author's report An experimental computer-generated Y-chromosomal phylogeny, leveraging public Geno 2.0 results and the current ISOGG tree.

Contribute and participate in Y-DNA haplogroup research

Citizen scientists are collecting the raw Y-SNP data from Geno 2.0 tests in an attempt to establish the position of the many new Y-SNPs on the Y-SNP tree. Results are being collected for most of the major haplogroups and subclades. A list of all the known projects is provided below. In addition Itaï Perez is maintaining a spreadsheet of Geno 2.0 results from all the haplogroups. Further information can be found in the Geno 2.0 Y-DNA SNP Comparison website or in the Geno 2.0 Y-DNA SNP Comparison Facebook group.
