a
The sign > is used in all communities in which estimates for the community size is available only upon moving from the Diaspora. Due to recent intra-Jewish admixture contemporary estimation of the number of people descending from the original total are not available.
b
Hg names in italic fonts indicate them to be prospective candidates of clades to be defined properly in the future
c
Stralike denote a phylogenetic cluster in which the derivatives are one step away from the central node.
d
Coding region hierarchy was observed in these lineages
e
Lineage was shared among Iraqi and Iranian Jews
f
Coding region hierarchy was observed in these lineages and suggested two sub-clades. Coalescence analysis for the two sub-clades is shown.
g
Lineage was shared among Libyan and Tunisian Jews
h
The Ashkenazi data follows Behar et al. [5].
