Haplogroup P (mtDNA)

Haplogroup P
Possible time of origin	50,000 years

In human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup P is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup.

Origin

Haplogroup P is a descendant of Haplogroup R.

Distribution

Today, P is most commonly found in Oceania, especially in Papuans, Melanesians, indigenous Australians,^[3] and Filipinos. It was found in the Aeta of Bataan at 40%.^[4] It is also found in the Malaysians, Indonesians.

Subclades

Tree

This phylogenetic tree of haplogroup P subclades is based on the paper by Mannis van Oven and Manfred Kayser Updated comprehensive phylogenetic tree of global human mitochondrial DNA variation^[2] and subsequent published research.
