Haplogroup Q-L804 (Y-DNA) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. Haplogroup Q-L804 is a subclade of Haplogroup Q-L54. Currently Q-L804 is Q1b1a1b below Q1b-M346.[1]

| Defining mutations | L804 (rs1952836) |
In 2000 the research group at Oxford University headed by Dr. Agnar Helgason first discovered the haplotype that was much later to become known as Q-L804. In 2000 the strange haplotype was called “branch-A” (i.e. R1b-branch A) and it was found uniquely on Iceland and Scandinavia.[2] Later studies completed the genetic bridge by determining that Q-L804 is related to Q-M242 populations of Native Americans, Turkmen (Q-M3) and Siberian populations of the Selkup and Ket people (Q-L54*xM3).[3] [4]
Origin and distribution
editThe origin of Haplogroup Q-L804 is uncertain. However it is likely to have originated in Beringia (North East Siberia) c. 15000 to 17000 yBP since it is closely linked to Q-M3 and to other haplogroups linked to the indigenous peoples of the Americas (over 90% of indigenous people in Meso & South America). Today, Q-L804 is found mainly in Norway and Sweden and in regions of North West Europe of Viking Age Expansion (British Isles, Atlantic Isles, Northern Germany, Normandy and Poland). The Q-L804 is also found among descendants of Scandinavian immigrants to North America. Haplogroup Q-L804 is defined by the presence of the (L804) single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Q-L804 occurred on the Q-L54 lineage roughly 10-15 thousand years ago as the migration into the Americas was underway. It is likely that the split between Q-M3 and Q-L804 happened in the ancestors of the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
North Europe
editPopulations carrying Q-L804 are extremely thinly distributed throughout Northern Europe and among recent North European immigrants to North America. Since the discovery and definition of Q-L804 in 2014, three main subclades of Q-L804 bearing populations have been discovered in North Europe. The Q-Y9052 , the Q-JN14 and Q-Y7582. Of these three branches Q-JN14 has the widest distribution, ranging from Poland to Iceland, British Isles and France. Q-L804 is one of two subclades known as Q Nordic among genealogical communities. The Q-L527 is the other subclad of the Q Nordic.
Subclade distribution
editQ-Y9052 (BY459). This lineage is found in Sweden, Norway and Germany.
Q-JN14 It has been found in Norway, Iceland, British Isles, Germany, France and Poland.
Q-Y7582 (BY386). This lineage has been found in Scotland, Iceland and England.
Technical specification of mutation
editThe L804 was discovered and defined by Thomas Krahn of Family Tree DNA's Genomics Research Center in 2012.[5] The technical details of L804 are:
- Nucleotide change: T to A
- Position (base pair):
- Total size (base pairs):
- Forward 5′→ 3′: GAATTCTGTGGGTGACTTTGTG
- Reverse 5′→ 3′: GCACAGTGAAGAATGTGGGAC
- Position: [1] chrY:11,907,522
- dbSNP151: rs765685783
Associated SNPs
editQ-L804 is defined by the SNPs L804 and L805 and E324.
