J2a1-PF5172,PF5190 seems a very old haplogroup: YFull YTree v4.3 J-PF5172 estimates the TMRCA to 14,300 years.

In May 2015 the first upload of a J2a1-PF5172(xPF5169) NGS result to YFull (BigY 217812/YF03340 Armenia) allowed to compare the novel YFS SNPs with the tur-7 Turkey (Hallast et al 2014) sample as well as get the above stated time estimate. The comparison resulted in 32 shared SNPs negative in PF5191,S21554,PF5169+ samples.

A new BigY result is 445650 Austria. The comparison with 217812/YF03340 Armenia and tur-7 Turkey gives 47 shared SNPs between the Armenian and Austrian sample, but not reported in the Turkish sample. 18 of those SNPs fall into the coverage area of Hallast et al 2014 and therefore should have some confidence of being negative in the Turkish sample. From the remaining 29 SNPs ca. 64 % are expected to be positive also in the Turkish sample.

For accurate time estimates we would need 445650 Austria to get the BAM file (currently not available for request) and upload it for analysis to YFull. A rough manual estimate might give those indicative ages:

Haplogroup # SNPs total SNPs % of 14,300 y
PH1222, PH180, CTS904 50,56 119 58% 8224
Z40014, Z40015 30,44 68,44 32% 4566
217812/YF03340 novel 38 38 0% 0
  • PH1222, PH180, CTS904: TMRCA ca. 8,200 ybp
  • Z40014, Z40015: TMRCA ca. 4,600 ybp

The newly found SNPs were registered in the order of BLAT 500 bp uniqueness. Hg19 position data:
