Kim Soon-hee et al. reported different three Korean y hg L lineages, "Gyeongsang43", "Seoul-Gyeonggi100" and "Jeolla23". (See their supplementary xls.) Any clue from where they could be? |

I recall having found some predicted L haplotypes in the Korean and Manchu samples of Xue et al. (2006) when I studied their Y-STR haplotypes many years ago. At the time, I thought it must be some mistake, but now I suspect that those individuals really do belong to Y-DNA haplogroup L. If the Manchu L-M20 individual is closely related to the Korean individuals, and these are all closely related to Hui or other Chinese haplotypes, then I think the most likely explanation would be Muslim infiltration from Central Asia (perhaps descendants of individuals who have served as officers of the Yuan Empire?). If the Korean L-M20 haplotypes are not closely related to haplotypes of L-M20 Manchu, Hui, Uyghur, etc. individuals, then I suppose it might be plausible to look for an origin in an ancient Indian or Indianized kingdom. The migration of a princess from what appears to be one such kingdom to a petty state of the ancient Korean Peninsula as a royal bride is recorded in historical documents; if the records are true, then I suppose that she might have brought at least one L-M20 male in her entourage. Unfortunately, I cannot recall how closely related the L-predicted Manchu and Korean haplotypes appeared to be, and I lost the record of my analysis long ago. cf. Xue et al. (2006) K-M9(xNO-M214, P-92R7) 1/26 Ewenki (Evenk from PRC) 1/35 Manchu 2/45 Inner Mongolian 1/31 Oroqen 5/39 Uygur from Yili, Xinjiang 2/41 Xibe 3/32 Han from Yili, Xinjiang 1/35 Han from Meixian, Guangdong 1/25 Korean from PRC 1/43 Korean from (South) Korea 1/65 Outer Mongolian (Note that some of the K-M9(xNO-M214, P-92R7) haplotypes have received predictions of T-M70, such as at least one of the Xibe individuals IIRC, so they do not necessarily all belong to L-M20. Furthermore, I recall that some of them have received predictions of various P-M45 subclades, including subclades of Q or R, despite the fact that the authors have tabulated them as being negative/ancestral for the P-92R7 SNP.) |
