Books Relating to Genetic Genealogy
-
The Bradshaw Foundation is an excellent resource for issues related to human migrations including genetic anthropology and rock art.
-
" Trace
Your Roots with DNA", our first choice for an
introductory book to explain the relationship between genetics, DNA,
and genealogy.
- "Out of Eden: the Peopling of the world" is a
thorough study of the paternal line (Y-DNA) and maternal line (mtDNA)
evidence that traces the migration of mankind since the emergence of
the genetic Adam and genetic Eve.
- Details of Stephen Oppenheimer's other books on genetic genealogy including "Out of Eden", and "Eden in the East" are available here.
- "Human
Evolutionary Genetics" providing advanced technical
descriptions of the details of population genetics research (e.g.,
laboratory procedures used to measure DNA markers).

Y-Chromosome Information - Haplotypes
-
Dr. Whit Athey's website provides a utility
that allows the prediction of haplogroup from a Y-STR
haplotype.
-
Or perhaps try the NIST government website on the Y Chromosome.
-
Dean McGee's Y
Chromosome Utility Tools page provides almost every imaginable calculation device!
-
Dr. John McEwan's "what
do I do now that I have a 37 marker haplotype" site is also very useful.
-
Dr. John McEwan's website depicts extended haplotype
regional subgroup charts that will allow you to attempt an
answer, for example, to the question, "do my results
suggest I am Scottish?"

Haplogroups - General
-
Dr. John McEwan's website lists haplogroup
subgroup modal values.
