Haplogroup P (mtDNA)

This article is about the human mtDNA haplogroup. For the human Y-DNA haplogroup, see Haplogroup P (Y-DNA).

Haplogroup P
Possible time of origin	50,000 years[1]
Possible place of origin	Southeast Asia
Ancestor	R
Descendants	16176, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7, P9
Defining mutations	15607[2]

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] It's 1.4% in mainstream Filipinos but 1.13% in Luzon, 1.78% in Visayas, 1.43% in Mindanao.^[4] It is much higher in Sub-Filipinos groups, 6.67% in Bugkalot and 11.2% in Maranao.^[5] It was found in the Philippines Negrito Aeta of Bataan at 40%.^[6] It is also found in the Malaysians at 0.9%, including 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.
