100,000 Branches and Counting: What FamilyTreeDNA’s Y-DNA Tree Milestone Means for East Asian Haplogroup Research

FamilyTreeDNA updated its Y-DNA haplogroup tree with more than 100,000 new branches, covering finer downstream lineages and refined age estimates, giving genetic genealogy researchers a more precise tool to pinpoint recent common ancestors.

DNA Confirms a Patrilineal Clan: Ancient Genomes from the 32 Northern Wei Tombs of the Yang Family at Qianfengcun, Xi’an

At a 32-tomb Northern Wei cemetery at Qianfengcun, Xi'an, ancient DNA confirms patrilineal kinship among most males, matching brick and tile epitaphs that identify the Yang clan across two political periods.

Cave Burial Genomes from Guangxi: Local Kra-Dai Roots and the Polyphyletic Formation of Hmong-Mien Speakers

Fourteen ancient genomes from eight cliff-burial sites in Guangxi link modern Kra-Dai speakers to local people 1,500 years ago, while Hmong-Mien speakers show striking regional variation in local ancestry.

A 46,000-Year-Old Genetic “Living Fossil” in the Qiang Genome: The ANKRD36 Haplotype and High-Altitude Adaptation

A missense mutation in ANKRD36, arising ~46,000 years ago and retained at high frequency only in the Qiang, may aid adaptation to mid-to-high altitude hypoxia—a near-lost ancient lineage in East Asian genomes.

Ancient DNA Opens a 4,500-Year-Old Matrilineal Society: Two Long-Lasting Maternal Lineages at the Fujia Site, Shandong

At the 4,500-year-old Dawenkou-period Fujia site in Shandong, ancient-DNA kinship analysis identifies two sharply bounded, long-enduring maternal lineages, directly evidencing a prehistoric matrilineal clan.

Why Are Asian Victims So Hard to Identify by Forensic Genealogy? The Gilgo Beach Case and the Diversity Gap in Public DNA Databases

An unidentified Asian victim in the Gilgo Beach killings highlights a systemic blind spot: Asian representation in public DNA genealogy databases is so low that forensic genealogy struggles to find relatives.

Ancient Yellow River Ancestry and Divergent Admixture Histories of the Qiang People: A Full-Genome Reconstruction

Fudan University researchers sequence 20 Qiang genomes from Maoxian and find two subgroups—one closer to Han, one to Tibetan—sharing ancestry from a ~5,300-year-old Yellow River population, plus a ~46,000-year-old ANKRD36 lineage.
