In human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup P is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup. Mitochondrial genetics is the study of the Genetics of the DNA contained in Mitochondria. In Human genetics, a human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup is a Haplogroup defined by differences in human mitochondrial DNA.
Today, P is found in the southern Pacific region, especially in New Guinea, Melanesia, and indigenous populations of Australia. The Pacific Rim refers to the countries and cities located around the edge of the Pacific Ocean. New Guinea, located just north of Australia, is the world's second largest island, having become separated from the Australian mainland when the area now known Melanesia (from Greek: μέλας black, νῆσος island) means "islands of the black-skinned people" For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Australia topics.
Relationship to other haplogroups
Haplogroup P is a descendant of Haplogroup R. In Human genetics, Haplogroup R is a Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA haplogroup.
