Haplogroup O (mtDNA)
Appearance
Haplogroup O mtDNA is a haplogroup derived from haplogroup N and found in Oceania.[1] Specifically, it is found among Aboriginal Australians.[2][3] Its defining mutations are G6755A, C9140T, and G16213A.[4]
It is one of the rarest haplogroups. As of 2022, FamilyTreeDNA reports that only 4 people in their customer base who have tested their complete mitochondrial sequences are members of the haplogroup.[5] YFull reports 8 known members, all of whom are from Australia, and that the haplogroup is at least 20,000 years old.[6]
The following table lists relevant GenBank samples:
