Haplogroup B (mtDNA)
Haplogroup B is in human genetics a haplogroup of the mitochondria.
The subgroup B2 is one of five haplogroups of the Indians in America, the others are A, C, D and X.
Since the ancestors of Native Americans emigrated to North and South America and came to the general view from Siberia, haplogroups of the Indians and the Siberian population should match.
Haplogroup B is more common among American Indians and East Asia before, but not in the modern North Siberian population. But it is common among the southern Siberians as Tuwinern, Altaians and Buryats and is also found in Mongols, Tibetans, Koreans and among the population of Japan, China, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan, Indonesia, Madagascar, the Philippines, Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia.
In his popular book The Seven Daughters of Eve Bryan Sykes is the original mother of this mtDNA haplogroup the name Ina.
Pedigree
The phylogenetic tree of the subgroups of haplogroup B is based on a paper by Mannis van Oven and Manfred Kayser and subsequent scientific research.
