In human genetics, Haplogroup D is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup. Human genetics describes the study of inheritance as it occurs in Human beings. In Human genetics, a human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup is a Haplogroup defined by differences in human mitochondrial DNA.
Haplogroup D is believed to have arisen in Asia some 60,000 years before present. It is a descendant haplogroup of haplogroup M. In Human genetics, Haplogroup M is a Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA haplogroup.
It is found in Northeast Asia (including Siberia) and is also one of five haplogroups found in the indigenous peoples of the Americas, the others being A, B, C, and X. Siberia (Сиби́рь Sibir) is the name given to the vast region constituting almost all of Northern Asia and for the most part currently serving For indigenous peoples in the United States other than Hawaii and Alaska see also Native Americans in the United States. In Human genetics, Haplogroup A is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA haplogroup. In mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup B is a Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA haplogroup. In Human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup C is a Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA haplogroup. In Human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup X is a Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA haplogroup which can be used to define genetic Populations. It also appears at a low frequency througout northeastern Europe.
Haplogroup D is also found quite frequently in Central Asia[1], where it makes up the second most common mtDNA clade (after H), and as far west as Kurdistan.
In his popular book The Seven Daughters of Eve, Bryan Sykes named the originator of this mtDNA haplogroup Djigonasee. The Seven Daughters of Eve (2001 ISBN 0-393-02018-5 is a book by Bryan Sykes that presents the theory of Human mitochondrial genetics to a general audience Bryan Sykes is Professor of Human Genetics at the University of Oxford and a Fellow of Wolfson College.
