What part of my DNA does the Genographic Project test?
The Genographic Project tests specific regions on the mitochondrial DNA and on the Y chromosome. Mitochondrial DNA: This test for your maternal lineage yields sequence data for Hypervariable Region 1 (HVR1: 16001 to 16569) and compares your results to the Cambridge Reference Sequence. Results are analyzed to determine your Haplogroup assignment.
