Paragroup R-L295*

Paragroup is a term used in population genetics to describe lineages within a haplogroup that are not defined by any additional unique markers. They are typically represented by an asterisk (*) placed after the main haplogroup.

Y-chromosomes which are positive to the L295 SNP and negative to the L294 SNP, are categorized as belonging to Paragroup R-L295*. It is found in South Asia, Anatolia, Arabian Peninsula, Europe, & Central Asia so far.[4]

Haplogroup R-L294

Haplogroup R-L294 is represented by the L294 SNP and found in Armenia and Turkey so far.[4]
