Overview Field researchers at 11 regional centers around the world collect DNA samples from indigenous populations. The project also sells self-testing kits: for US $100 anyone in the world can order a kit with which a mouth scraping (buccal swab ) is obtained, analyzed and the DNA information placed on an Internet accessible database. The genetic markers on mitochondrial DNA (HVR1 ) and Y-chromosomes (12 microsatellite markers and haplogroup -defining SNPs ) are used to trace the participant’s distant ancestry, and each customer is provided with their genetic history. As of April 2010 more than 350,000 people had bought a test kit. The Genographic Project is undertaking widespread consultation with indigenous groups from around the world. Genographic Project public participation kits are processed by Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) using the Arizona Research Labs at the University of Arizona . The project is a privately-funded, not-for-profit collaboration between the National Geographic Society , IBM and the Waitt Family Foundation. Part of the proceeds from the sale of self-testing kits support the Genographic Project’s ongoing DNA collection , but the majority are ploughed into a Legacy Fund to be spent on cultural preservation projects nominated by |

Trace Your Roots with DNA: Using Genetic Tests to Explore Your Family Tree $5.46 Written by two of the country’s top genealogists, this authoritative book is the first to explain how new and groundbreaking genetic testing can help you research your ancestryAccording to American Demographics, 113 million Americans have begun to trace their roots, making genealogy the second most popular hobby in the country (after gardening). Enthusiasts clamor for new information from dozens of subscription-based websites, email newsletters, and magazines devoted to the subject. For these eager roots-seekers looking to take their searches to the next level, DNA testing is the answer. After a brief introduction to genealogy and genetics fundamentals, the authors explain the types of available testing, what kind of information the tests can provide, how to interpret the results, and how the tests work (it doesn’t involve digging up your dead relatives). It’s in expensive, easy to do, and the results are accurate: It’s as simple as swabbing the inside of your cheek and popping a sample in the mail.Family lore has it that a branch of our family emigrated to Argentina and now I’ve found some people there with our name. Can testing tell us whether we’re from the same family?My mother was adopted and doesn’t know her ethnicity. Are there any tests available to help her learn about her heritage? I just discovered someone else with my highly unusual surname. How can we find out if we have a common ancestor? These are just a few of the types of genealogical scenarios readers can pursue. The authors reveal exactly what is possible-and what is not possible-with genetic testing. They include case studies of both famous historial mysteries and examples of ordinary folks whose exploration of genetic genealogy has enabled them to trace their roots. |
