Haplogroup E-M132

E-M132/E1a has been found in the remains of one Guanche (1/30) from the Canary Islands, and one Bimbape (1/16) from El Hierro that has been dated to the 10th century CE. A man from the Koban culture (1/15) of the North Caucasus, which has been dated between the 9th century BCE and the 7th century BCE, carried paternal haplogroup E1a2a1b1b, as well as maternal haplogroup J1b1 or J1c. A man from punic-era Spain was found to carry paternal haplogroup E1a2* as well as maternal haplogroup U6a1b2. ==Distribution==

E-M132 is found most often in West Africa, and today it is especially common in the region of Mali. One study has found haplogroup E-M132 Y-chromosomes in as much as 34% (15/44) of a sample of Malian men, including 2/44 E-M44 and 13/44 E-M33/M132(xE-M44). In particular, the Dogon people of Mali have been found to carry haplogroup E-M132 with a frequency as high as 45.5% (25/55). This makes it perhaps the most common Y-DNA haplogroup in this population, though haplogroup E-P1 appears to be almost equally frequent among the Dogon (24/55 = 43.6%). Another study has found haplogroup E-M132 in 15.6% (44/282) of a pool of seven samples of various ethnic groups in Guinea-Bissau. ==Subclades==

E-M44 Haplogroup E-M44 is a subclade of haplogroup E-M132. E-Z958 Haplogroup E-Z958 is a subclade of haplogroup E-M132. ==Phylogenetics==

Phylogenetic history Prior to 2002, there were in academic literature at least seven naming systems for the Y-Chromosome phylogenetic tree. This led to considerable confusion. In 2002, the major research groups came together and formed the Y-Chromosome Consortium (YCC). They published a joint paper that created a single new tree that all agreed to use. Later, a group of citizen scientists with an interest in population genetics and genetic genealogy formed a working group to create an amateur tree aiming at being, above all, timely. The table below brings together all of these works at the point of the landmark 2002 YCC tree. This allows a researcher reviewing older published literature to quickly move between nomenclatures. Research publications The following research teams per their publications were represented in the creation of the YCC tree. Phylogenetic trees This phylogenetic tree of haplogroup subclades is based on the YCC 2008 tree and subsequent published research. • E-P147 (P147) • E-M132 (M132, L633, M33) • E-M44 (M44) • E-L96 (L94) • E-L133 (L133) ==See also==
