[QUOTE]Originally posted by capra: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [qb]Up to 2010, R1b1 was recognized as an African R1 subclade . Africans carried R1b1, the name for this haplogroup was changed to R-L278. Although it was called R-L278 after 2010, Haak et al (2015), continued to refer to this haplogroup as R1b1. As a result, the change in name had nothing to do with discovery of a new mutation.[/qb][/QUOTE]In 2010 L278 was added to define the R1b1 level as an alternative to P25, because the latter is prone to back-mutate. R-L278 and R1b1 are both abbreviations of R1b1-L278 and meant exactly the same thing; there is no change of name, you're just being willfully stupid. Africans still carry R1b1, of course, since V88 is a subclade of R1b1. In 2010 Cruciani discovered the V88 SNP, and found that previously unclassified African R1b1 belonged to the clade defined by that mutation. So it is no longer referred to as R1b1*, i.e. R1b1 that does not belong to a known branch, because now it belongs to a known branch. You should know this; you probably do know this at some level, but you are deeply dishonest. [/QB][/QUOTE]
