After J2 several mutations have taken place. - These are listed in Jim's article which has just come Sun, 07 Jun 2009 15:00:37 GMT violinchick27 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/J-mtDNA/message/848 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/J-mtDNA/message/848 What makes the difference between J2 and J2a, which is older, is the difference in the coding region?

Ongoing research will likely show that the Haplogroup J population of northern Italy has a higher percentage of J2 than that of southern Italy. As shown Sat, 06 Jun 2009 21:40:06 GMT Timo J.

They are very focused on the relationship between DNA and health. They have 9 different markers they use to try and Sat, 06 Jun 2009 16:10:37 GMT Timo J. Penttilä http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/J-mtDNA/message/844 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/J-mtDNA/message/844 I found the base no. 319 in my Genebase datasheet which is C! So in my case I have T319C which classifies me in the box J2a1a. So it is according to Jim's
