*Frequencies were compiled from the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation (SMGF) Y-chromosome database and are reported in percentages (%). Due to paternally related individuals present in the SMGF database some frequencies may be overestimates.

†Multi-copy locus frequencies are normalized according to copy number.
