Haplogroup T (Y-DNA)
Encyclopedia
In human genetics
, Haplogroup T is a human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup
. From 2002 to 2008, it was known as Haplogroup K2. It should not be confused with the mitochondrial DNA haplogroup T
, of the same name.
The UEP which defines this clade
is generally considered to be the single nucleotide polymorphism
(SNP), M70. Other SNPs, M184, M193, M272, are currently considered to be phylogenetically equivalent.

Since haplogroup T is not associated with the R1
, G
and J
lineages that entered Africa from Eurasia relatively recently, Luis et al. (2004) suggest that the presence of the clade on the African continent may, like R1* representatives, point to an older introduction from Asia. The Levant
rather than Southern Arabia appears to have been the main route of entry, as the Egypt
ian and Turkish
haplotypes are considerably older in age (13,700 ybp and 9,000 ybp, respectively) than those found in Oman
(only 1,600 ybp). According to the authors, the spotty modern distribution pattern of haplogroup T within Africa may therefore represent the traces of a more widespread early local presence of the clade. Later expansions of populations carrying the E1b1b, E1b1a, G and J NRY lineages may have overwhelmed the T clade-bearers in certain localities.
The distribution of haplogroup T in most parts of Europe is patchy or regionalized; for example, haplogroup T was found in 1.7% (10/591) of a pool of six samples of males from southwestern Russia
, but it was completely absent from a pool of eight samples totalling 637 individuals from the northern half of European Russia.
In FTDNA, a commercial genetic genealogy company, is exposed a map where is assumed a relatively high frequency of haplogroup T in some Australian aborigenes. Probably the populations coincide with those previously reported in several studies as K*(M9) with a frequency near to 30% in Northern Australia. According to FTDNA the defining SNP for haplogroup T is M184 while M70 difines T1.

; his Y-chromosomal complement was studied in an attempt to resolve the controversy over whether he had fathered the mixed-race children of his slave Sally Hemings
. A 1998 DNA study of the Y chromosome in the Jefferson male line found that it matched with that of a descendant of Eston Hemings
, Sally Hemings' youngest son. Together with the body of historical evidence, most historians believe that Jefferson had a long-term intimate relationship with Hemings for 38 years, and she bore six children by him, four of whom lived to adulthood. Three entered white communities as adults; they were seven-eighths European in ancestry and were legally white at the time in Virginia and some other jurisdictions. Eston Hemings took his family from Ohio to Wisconsin about 1852; where they changed their surname to Jefferson and entered the white community. His descendants have identified as white ever since, according to their appearance. He had two sons who served in the Union Army; John Wayles Jefferson
had red hair and gray eyes, and was promoted to colonel.

Elite endurance runners
Possible patterns between Y-chromosome and elite endurance runners were studied in an attempt to find a genetic explanation to the Ethiopian endurance running success. Given the superiority of East African athletes in international distance running over the past four decades, it has been speculated that they are genetically advantaged. Elite marathon runners from Ethiopia were analised for K*(xP) which according to the previously published Ethiopian studies is attributable to the haplogroup T and specifically to the T1a* subclade, according to further studies. T1a* was found to be proportionately more frequent in the elite marathon runners sample than in the control samples than any other haplogroup, therefore this y-chromosome could play a significant role in determining Ethiopian endurance running success. Haplogroup T1a* was found in 14% of the elite marathon runners sample of whom 43% of this sample are from Arsi province. In addition, haplogroup T1a* was found in only 4% of the Ethiopian control sample and only 1% of the Arsi province control sample. T1a* is positively associated with aspects of endurance running, whereas E1b1b1 (old E3b1) is negatively associated.Notable haplogroup members

Together with the body of historical evidence, most historians believe that Jefferson had a long-term intimate relationship with Hemings for 38 years, and she bore six children by him, four of whom lived to adulthood. Three entered white communities as adults; they were seven-eighths European in ancestry and were legally white at the time in Virginia and some other jurisdictions. Eston Hemings took his family from Ohio to Wisconsin about 1852; where they changed their surname to Jefferson and entered the white community. His descendants have identified as white ever since, according to their appearance. He had two sons who served in the Union Army; John Wayles Jefferson
