I think al Takruri reasonably covered the base for R clades, although I'd like to add that western-central African R markers likely include R markers with P25 mutation, like the V88 clades exemply, and those without it, as exemplified by Sudanese Fulani samples, which all reported no P25 mutation.

As for E markers, let's take a single and relatively recent African group, like the Imazighen. The characteristic modal marker for the Imazighen populations in this lineage, is the M81 mutation, followed by M78 variants. E-M81 is nowhere to be found in Yemen, and M78, although it occurs, is rare there too. coastal northern Imazighen samples have more diversity in their M78 gene pool than so-called "Near Easterners", according Cruciani et al.'s 2007 work. Does it therefore make sense that Imazighen gene pool, which includes paraphyletic clades, is a subset of "Near Eastern" counterpart, or from logic, it should be the other way around?

Imagine a relatively young African population outstripping "Near Eastern" counterparts in the above-mentioned markers. Now, move onto the continent in general, including older populations with hg E, and beyond E-M81 and E-M78. The same phenomenon presents itself: Diversity here subsumes that of the low incidences in the "Near East". Does it therefore make sense for the least diverse to be the superset of the more diverse?

A: 12,300BCE-9,600BCE;
9000 years before Arabs 10,000 years before Islam.


Q: What is the birth age and birthplace of R-V88?

A: (Proposed) 7200BCE-3600BCE in the central Sahara.


R-V88 serves as no genetic proof of Arab paternity.
Quite the opposite, R-V88 is African specific. The
infinitesimal frequency of its occurence in western
Asia points to its less than slight presence is due
to African introduction.

Human Y chromosome haplogroup R-V88: a paternal genetic record of early mid Holocene trans-Saharan connections and the spread of Chadic languages

by Fulvio Cruciani , Beniamino Trombetta , Daniele Sellitto , Andrea Massaia , Giovanni Destro-Bisol , Elizabeth Watson , Eliane Beraud Colomb , Jean-Michel Dugoujon , Pedro Moral & Rosaria Scozzari

Abstract

Although human Y chromosomes belonging to haplogroup R1b are quite rare in Africa, being found mainly in Asia and Europe, a group of chromosomes within the paragroup R-P25|[ast]| are found concentrated in the central-western part of the African continent, where they can be detected at frequencies as high as 95|[percnt]|. Phylogenetic evidence and coalescence time estimates suggest that R-P25|[ast]| chromosomes (or their phylogenetic ancestor) may have been carried to Africa by an Asia-to-Africa back migration in prehistoric times. Here, we describe six new mutations that define the relationships among the African R-P25|[ast]| Y chromosomes and between these African chromosomes and earlier reported R-P25 Eurasian sub-lineages. The incorporation of these new mutations into a phylogeny of the R1b haplogroup led to the identification of a new clade (R1b1a or R-V88) encompassing all the African R-P25|[ast]| and about half of the few European|[sol]|west Asian R-P25|[ast]| chromosomes. A worldwide phylogeographic analysis of the R1b haplogroup provided strong support to the Asia-to-Africa back-migration hypothesis. The analysis of the distribution of the R-V88 haplogroup in >1800 males from 69 African populations revealed a striking genetic contiguity between the Chadic-speaking peoples from the central Sahel and several other Afroasiatic-speaking groups from North Africa. The R-V88 coalescence time was estimated at 9200–5600|[thinsp]|kya, in the early mid Holocene. We suggest that R-V88 is a paternal genetic record of the proposed mid-Holocene migration of proto-Chadic Afroasiatic speakers through the Central Sahara into the Lake Chad Basin, and geomorphological evidence is consistent with this view. European Journal of Human Genetics advance online publication, 6 January 2010; doi:10.1038/ejhg.2009.231."

**************************************************

R1a1 M198 is found in Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, Oman, in tribes like Tai, Shamar and Anza in Kuwait. It's also found amongst the Mahra in the Yemen. It's age on the Arabian Peninsula is estimated to be 7,000 - 11,000 years old.

**************************************************

UPDATE I:

Interestingly though, in Oman the age of R1a1 is 11,400 years or 5,178 equivalent years using the same assumptions about generation length and mutation rate as above. In Iran and Pakistan it is 6,300 and 6,200 years old. Hence, all these ages seem very close to each other, and -given their confidence intervals- we cannot at present determine the point of origin of haplogroup R1a1.

http://dienekes.blogspot.com/2005/11/more-on-r1a1-age-and-haplogroup-j2-in.html

************************************************

R1b1a v88, which is believed to have been born in southern Sham (Syria) or northern Arabia, is clearly found in the Middle East and is present amongst the Anza and Azd tribes. The branch of r1b1a v88 found in northern Cameroon reached the area of Cameroon from the area of southern Sham (Syria) or northern Arabia via Egypt.

**************************************************

R1b is found in great numbers in the northern part of the Arabian Peninsula, in Sham (Syria, Palestine, Jordan), in Iraq. It can reach 40% in some of these areas.

Oops, no Arabian J chromosomes. We all know what that means.

Did you bother to read the report? The overwhelming Kel
nrY clades are E-M2 and E-M81. Did you read the abstract
you posted? What is the timeframe? Isn't it like some
8000 years optimum before there were any Arabs? C'mon man.

Abstract

The Tuareg presently live in the Sahara and the Sahel. Their ancestors are commonly believed to be the Garamantes of the Libyan Fezzan, ever since it was suggested by authors of antiquity. Biological evidence, based on classical genetic markers, however, indicates kinship with the Beja of Eastern Sudan. Our study of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences and Y chromosome SNPs of three different southern Tuareg groups from Mali, Burkina Faso and the Republic of Niger reveals a West Eurasian-North African composition of their gene pool. The data show that certain genetic lineages could not have been introduced into this population earlier than approximately 9000 years ago whereas local expansions establish a minimal date at around 3000 years ago. Some of the mtDNA haplogroups observed in the Tuareg population were involved in the post-Last Glacial Maximum human expansion from Iberian refugia towards both Europe and North Africa. Interestingly, no Near Eastern mtDNA lineages connected with the Neolithic expansion have been observed in our population sample. On the other hand, the Y chromosome SNPs data show that the paternal lineages can very probably be traced to the Near Eastern Neolithic demic expansion towards North Africa, a period that is otherwise concordant with the above-mentioned mtDNA expansion. The time frame for the migration of the Tuareg towards the African Sahel belt overlaps that of early Holocene climatic changes across the Sahara (from the optimal greening approximately 10 000 YBP to the extant aridity beginning at approximately 6000 YBP) and the migrations of other African nomadic peoples in the area.

Get serious. What does R1a1 have to do with R-V88?

I mean this is not even good enthusiast straw grasping.

Your ignorance of genetics is embarassing yourself.

"No Arab claims" DOESN'T mean not of Arab origin.

Non-Muslim DOESN'T mean not of Arab origin.

What about the Jukun, who are not Muslims, but say that they are from Yemen. Do they say this for religious purposes???

awlaadberry is just a copy & paste artist, and has no concept of genetics; this is why every time someone crushes what is given in his/her copy & paste, he/she is unable to reply, other than to helplessly recite the same rebutted material in a repetitive loop.

As long he/she eyeballs something to the effect of "so and so marker is in Arabia", it matters not, what the phylogenetic, frequency and distribution patterns of the markers actually say.

To awlaadberry, "so and so marker is in Arabia" translates into only one thing: "it is an Arab marker"; it doesn't matter what is actually being said as to why it is there.

I'm speaking about the different Rs in Arabia. I never said that R1a1 was R1b1a v88. What are you talking about???

awlaadberry, explain these things to me:

1)Why is hg E far more diverse in Africa vs. Arabia?

2)Why are the major clades of YAP+ [hg E and hg D] diverse in two different areas, that is NOT Arabia? Why is hg D in east Asia instead of Arabia?

No, what are you talking about?

Are you talking about R chromosomes supporting Arab paternity in Africa?

No. There is no such thing as Arabian R Hg in Africa.

So what is it you're talking about?

Nothing, just jaw jacking.

This is a sucker non-debate unworthy of my time.

Carry on with your enthusiast nonsense with any suckers who takes you seriously

I never claimed to be a geneticist, but I do know that the expert geneticists say that R1b1a V88 is from the Near East. And I believe them. You are free to believe what you want. I also know that the Hausa, who are R1b1a V88, say that they are from the Near East and I believe them. You are free to believe what you want. You can sit here and claim that the experts don't say that R1b1a V88 is from West Asia, but it doesn't change the fact that the experts say that R1b1a V88 is from West Asia. I'm not sure what you are out to prove, but I don't have time to argue back and forth with you about something that the experts have already said. Argue with the experts who say that R1b1a V88 is from West Asia. Don't argue with me. Argue with the Hausa elders who say that their tradition says that they are from the Near East. Don't argue with me. I believe the experts in genetics and I believe the Hausa tradition. Do you have a problem with that?

No.
It is your own word that hg R is an Arab haplogroup. You have labeled Africans in all directions as "Arabs" on the account of having "Arab haplogroups". Why are Europeans an exception to this funny rule of your's?

This is a figment of your imagination.

So, you are not convinced that Cameroon is in Africa? And you've changed your mind in a few seconds, that they are back to being Arabs, on the account of J1?

Based on your logic, they might as well be. And in fact, that would make a far better case than your rule vis-a-vis "Arab haplogroups".

So, I have to have approval of some Arab tribes of Arabia, before I assign an origin to a marker? And I had better make sure I don't make a mistake of mislabeling a marker "non-Arab"?

You argue against the experts. R-V88 is an African
specific marker which you keep trying to make Near
Eastern because you don't understand the difference
between macrohaplogroup R and subclade R-V88.

Cruciani, whose abstract you posted but can't grasp
and whose full report you haven't bothered to digest,
quote:
We suggest that R-V88 is a paternal genetic record of the proposed mid-Holocene migration of proto-Chadic Afroasiatic speakers through the Central Sahara into the Lake Chad Basin,
Nothing about Arabs there Mr. Berry.

Stop playing your sucker game. National epics are
political and make no claim to scientific accuracy
nor subject to verification as I already explained.

Does any educated Hausa child believe in a Sarki
snake or Bayajida siring the entire Hausa people?

No, really, this is a sucker non-debate unworthy of my time.

Spout your Arab enthusiast nonsense to any sucker who takes you seriously.

That's right. For sure, I'm not a geneticist, but Spencer Wells, Cruciani et al are.

Do you really not know what Hausa traditions say about their origin? Read my book The Unknown Arabs.

And again, concerning what the experts say, why don't you debate them until YOU become the expert and people begin to quote YOU as an authority in the field. The experts say that R1b1a V88 is of West Asian origin and these experts know exactly where R1b1a V88 is found and at what percentages.

For example, Spencer Wells says that the Toubou are from the Middle East. Go and debate him and prove him wrong and show him that "you da man".
Fast forward this to 4:30.

Our study of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences and Y chromosome SNPs of three different southern Tuareg groups from Mali, Burkina Faso and the Republic of Niger reveals a West Eurasian-North African composition of their gene pool. The data show that certain genetic lineages could not have been introduced into this population earlier than approximately 9000 years ago whereas local expansions establish a minimal date at around 3000 years ago. Some of the mtDNA haplogroups observed in the Tuareg population were involved in the post-Last Glacial Maximum human expansion from Iberian refugia towards both Europe and North Africa. Interestingly, no Near Eastern mtDNA lineages connected with the Neolithic expansion have been observed in our population sample. On the other hand, the Y chromosome SNPs data show that the paternal lineages can very probably be traced to the Near Eastern Neolithic demic expansion towards North Africa, a period that is otherwise concordant with the above-mentioned mtDNA expansion. The time frame for the migration of the Tuareg towards the African Sahel belt overlaps that of early Holocene climatic changes across the Sahara (from the optimal greening approximately 10 000 YBP to the extant aridity beginning at approximately 6000 YBP) and the migrations of other African nomadic peoples in the area.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20234393?dopt=AbstractPlus

The article you site is simply the standard form of academic and eurocentric gibberish that has been put forward to establish a "Eurasian" origin for North African populations. The reality is that the lineages that these authors claim as Eurasian are actually African. Hence, their claim should be treated with skepticism. The fact remains that the Sahara has ALWAYS been populated by black African pastoral nomads since many thousands of years ago. These attempts to derive a Eurasian origin for such populations are simply attempts to downplay the African origins of such populations and to put them in a Eurasian one.

There are two key points here that must be reinforced and repeated.

1) The traditions and culture of Saharan pastoral Nomadism are not an import from Eurasia. The Tuareg are a more recent population of African nomads in the Sahara descended from these ancient African groups. However, they have been impacted by modern movements of other populations since then, both from within and without Africa.

2) Berber is a language. It is not a gene and it is not a phenotype. Berber languages do not originate in Eurasia or Arabia. No amount of citing distorted or inaccurate genetic studies will change this. This includes East African Beja Nomadic stock, Saharan Garamante/Libyan Stock and West African stock. And along with that there is a more coastal aboriginal African stock and lastly there is a Arab and Eurasian element. Obviously it is the African aboriginal stock that represents the a base population from which these people derive not the Eurasian stock.

All these articles are tantamount to saying that a handful of Eurasian women or a handful of Eurasian men among a bunch of black Africans makes them Eurasian, which is silly. But that is exactly what you have when you try and take a couple minor genetic lineages and ignore or distort the rest in order to claim a Eurasian origin for a population that is primarily African.

And the fact that the nomadic populations in places like Arabia, Syria, Jordan, Israel and Palestine include blacks only reinforces the point about migration and movement being a two way street. You will find also Berber looking nomads in many of these places, but that does not make them Berber, because again Berber is a language and culture. The similarities in looks only reflects the fact that such populations have been mingling and therefore share some features in common along with a common lifestyle.

Nothing about Arabs there Mr. Berry.


Where does what you just quoted say that it isn't from the Near East??? Did he say this or not:

"Although human Y chromosomes belonging to haplogroup R1b are quite rare in Africa, being found mainly in Asia and Europe, a group of chromosomes within the paragroup R-P25* are found concentrated in the central-western part of the African continent, where they can be detected at frequencies as high as 95%. Phylogenetic evidence and coalescence time estimates suggest that R-P25* chromosomes (or their phylogenetic ancestor) may have been carried to Africa by an Asia-to-Africa back migration in prehistoric times. Here, we describe six new mutations that define the relationships among the African R-P25* Y chromosomes and between these African chromosomes and earlier reported R-P25 Eurasian sub-lineages. The incorporation of these new mutations into a phylogeny of the R1b haplogroup led to the identification of a new clade (R1b1a or R-V88) encompassing all the African R-P25* and about half of the few European/west Asian R-P25* chromosomes."

Deep into the roots of the Libyan Tuareg: A genetic survey of their paternal heritage

Claudio Ottoni1,2,3,4,*, Maarten H.D. Larmuseau1,3,5, Nancy Vanderheyden1, Cristina Martínez-Labarga4, Giuseppina Primativo4, Gianfranco Biondi6, Ronny Decorte1,3, Olga Rickards4

Article first published online: 10 FEB 2011

DOI: 10.1002/ajpa.21473

Abstract
Recent genetic studies of the Tuareg have begun to uncover the origin of this semi-nomadic northwest African people and their relationship with African populations. For centuries they were caravan traders plying the trade routes between the Mediterranean coast and south-Saharan Africa. Their origin most likely coincides with the fall of the Garamantes who inhabited the Fezzan (Libya) between the 1st millennium BC and the 5th century AD. In this study we report novel data on the Y-chromosome variation in the Libyan Tuareg from Al Awaynat and Tahala, two villages in Fezzan, whose maternal genetic pool was previously characterized. High-resolution investigation of 37 Y-chromosome STR loci and analysis of 35 bi-allelic markers in 47 individuals revealed a predominant northwest African component (E-M81, haplogroup E1b1b1b) which likely originated in the second half of the Holocene in the same ancestral population that contributed to the maternal pool of the Libyan Tuareg. A significant paternal contribution from south-Saharan Africa (E-U175, haplogroup E1b1a8) was also detected, which may likely be due to recent secondary introduction, possibly through slavery practices or fusion between different tribal groups. The difference in haplogroup composition between the villages of Al Awaynat and Tahala suggests that founder effects and drift played a significant role in shaping the genetic pool of the Libyan Tuareg.

Bottomline: both studies show African E-M81 predominates.

Cruciani had 328 West Asian samples and found R-V88
in only one. That's a whopping .003 or 3/10ths of 1%.

awlaadberry, in light of your 1000th+ copy & paste of that abstract, what you do make of this:

About one third of the African R-V88 chromosomes carried mutation V69, which was not observed outside Africa. The large majority of R1b chromosomes from western Eurasia carried, as expected, the M269 mutation; only five R-V88 chromosomes were observed, three of which carried distinctive mutations (M18, V35, and V7). The rare R1b chromosomes observed in Asia were either R-M73 or R-M269. The R-P25* paragroup was only found in five subjects from Europe (3), western Asia (1), and eastern Asia (1) (Table 1).

This element was featured in my rebuttal to the abstract that you were too nervous to address.

If you believe in Sarki snakes and Bayajida's potency
why wait? Go blow yourself up for some kitty in Paradise.

And no, I don't believe a remote ancestress of mine got it on
with a water spirit who materialized cattle for their offspring.

Bottomline: both studies show African E-M81 predominates.

The funny thing is that even in these studies that ultimately support the OBVIOUS, you still have a bunch of double talk implying that somehow these aren't really Africans. Hence:

quote:

Recent genetic studies of the Tuareg have begun to uncover the origin of this semi-nomadic northwest African people and their relationship with African populations.

Duh. I am waiting for a study that tries to "uncover the origin of these Northeast/Northwest/SouthEast/Southwest (take your pick) European people and their relationship to Europeans" or "uncover the origin of these Northeast/Northwest/Southeast/Southwest Asian people and their relationship to Asians".....

It just sounds dumb and smacks of an a priori assumption that these "African populations" need to be shown to be related to "Other Africans" as if they can't be "real" Africans by simply being native to the geographic expanse of the African landmass.

And going back to what I said earlier about Bedouin and nomads, which is a Berber:

It is these relationships with nomadic populations that many European scholars try and play up as the basis of Berber language and culture but that is simply false. Those connections between nomadic populations in PARTS of North Africa and elsewhere does not mean that Berber language originated outside of Africa. These connections are simply a reflection of migrations that have taken place over the last few thousand years but are not the basis of Berber language or culture.

^ Interesting pictures Doug. Even the fair-skinned Bedouin have features that are east African suggesting admixture. Also, the Negev desert was known in Biblical times as the Land of Cushim (blacks) to the Hebrews and later Israelites.

^ Why do you always ask stupid questions. Those familiar with east African features know what I'm talking about. Plus I assume they have admixture due to their fair skin you idiot. Unless you now want to say fair-skin is indigenous to not only Arabia but Africa.

Watch the white Scottish idiot (Argay) posing as black person. Ask more dumb questions or make trollish remarks.

It is these dark bedouin types that Awladberry is claiming are the ancestors of the Tuareg.

Sorry, no they are not. The physical relationships between these populations are ancient and predate Islam in the sense you are talking about an aboriginal strain of African phenotypes that left Africa and moved around between these areas.

The movement of those people associated with the origin of Berber languages were Africans not Arabs.

Not that anyone could mistake you for one, that's for sure.

...which is why it is rare to absent there?

And I believe them. You are free to believe what you want. I also know that the Hausa, who are R1b1a V88, say that they are from the Near East and I believe them.

Entertain me with Hausa legends that say this.

quote:

You are free to believe what you want. You can sit here and claim that the experts don't say that R1b1a V88 is from West Asia, but it doesn't change the fact that the experts say that R1b1a V88 is from West Asia. I'm not sure what you are out to prove, but I don't have time to argue back and forth with you about something that the experts have already said. Argue with the experts who say that R1b1a V88 is from West Asia. Don't argue with me. Argue with the Hausa elders who say that their tradition says that they are from the Near East. Don't argue with me. I believe the experts in genetics and I believe the Hausa tradition. Do you have a problem with that?

You constantly apply the term "experts" as though you are addressing Allah or Gods, and that the so-called "experts" are infallible. Do you think that these so-called "experts" are supernatural, make no errors, have no bias, and so forth?

If you are confident that your "experts" are unequivocally right, how come you never addressed my rebuttal to your "experts'" abstract?

That's right. For sure, I'm not a geneticist, but Spencer Wells, Cruciani et al are.

Do you really not know what Hausa traditions say about their origin? Read my book The Unknown Arabs.

And again, concerning what the experts say, why don't you debate them until YOU become the expert and people begin to quote YOU as an authority in the field. The experts say that R1b1a V88 is of West Asian origin and these experts know exactly where R1b1a V88 is found and at what percentages.

For example, Spencer Wells says that the Toubou are from the Middle East. Go and debate him and prove him wrong and show him that "you da man".
Fast forward this to 4:30.

Awlaad

What you say is true. The Hausas claim to come from Arabia. Genetically some are related with Yemenis. Anyone arguing this point is just being mischeivious.

Great. [Roll Eyes]

One third...?? What about the other two-thirds of the African R-V88 chromosomes? Do they also carry the mutation V69?

Are they identical to genes found somewhere outside Africa? Like Yemen?

Keep it real!

What is he babbling?

Fair skinned Bedouins... admixure?

With who?

Filipinos? [Big Grin]

.....

Yes Meri Mary Jayhooti

Fair skin is indigenous to Africa. Igbos, Fulanis, Khoi Khois, Amharas, Tamazights, are all indigenous Africans with very fair skin and no admixture... Albinos are born in Africa too? The defective MC1R genes do occur in Africa sometimes too. So what is your point?

What is wrong with you Mary?
