Comparing the DNA heritage in direct father and mother lines

Monday, 2010-01-04

When doing DNA genealogy, the best and most complete method is to subscribe by buying the Super DNA test.  This is the combination of a male specific Y-chromosome test and a maternal lineage mitochondrial test.  A discount is provided for ordering the Y-DNA 67 test and the mtDNA full sequence, the most comprehensive and highest resolution mtDNA test, together for one person. Results identify the ethnic and geographic origin of the maternal and paternal lines.  Current price $ 498.  When ordering, it adds the mailing fee $ 6. Ordered separately, the complete maternal lineage mitochondrial (mtDNA Full Sequence) of the woman or man is $ 279.   Less expensive tests are available which test fewer markers. Ordered separately, the male-line Y-DNA 67 is $ 239.  Less expensive tests are available which test fewer markers. The lab will send out a cheek-scrap kit.  The test result comes back password-protected by email.   You may use two e-mail addresses, so if the test is ordered by a relative, the payer and the testee may each receive an email whenever a match is found. Finland DNA project request you enter the earliest direct ancestor with year of birth and place of birth for our ancestor map. Ancestor’s name is not important or necessary, but many write  it is useful  closest DNA relatives on our website (http://www.fidna.info). We recommend the top-level research tests, the highest level of test is required when the aim is certainly to find the nearest relative of the DNA test results of all the crowd. Finland DNA project has more than 1500 test results, the global reference material has more than 200,000 test results. Lower levels of the test can be used if you want to know just what your ancestral migration route, your DNA type, and how your ancestors came to Finland.  With low level tests you will get many matches, but they are not useful for genealogy. The lowest level of testing 12 marker Y DNA and mtDNA base level of pay both $ 99.  Both can be purchased for a price of $ 179. At the same time when you order a DNA test, you will join Finland DNA comparison project. If you already have some kind of DNA test results from laboratories other than FamilytreeDNA or  National Geographic magazine, the results unfortunately can be added to the  reference materials.   The essence of the use of  the DNA test is comparison to reference material, and the DNA matches must test the same markers.   The FamilytreeDNA’s laboratory  includes the world’s largest DNA genealogy specialized reference material and they ensure privacy according to EU standards and U.S. Safe Harbor certification requirements. Finland DNA project (http://www.fidna.info) pages show your ancestor’s’ birth place on the map for each sample number and his nearest relatives based on the DNA comparison data, and estimated  to 65 generations the nearest common ancestor.   The Y-DNA 67 marker test has the greatest accuracy.   The maternal line maps for haplogroups can be found on our http://www.fidna.info and the Family Tree DNA website can search their reference database for mtDNA on up to 16,569 markers. If you are already a Finland DNA Project member, you can order a further analysis by logging into your FamilyTreeDNA.com account and going to  “Order Tests & Upgrades” and pressing the button ‘Order’ Standard Tests.’  If you  already have a FamilytreeDNA or National Geographic Genographic test, you can join the Finland DNA project. Membership does not cost anything, but the additional orders will be at the discount prices. Happy to answer your questions. E-mail address is on the left.
