Note.— Reported samples lacking coding-region information were classified within the coarser haplogroup scheme. Since only 185-bp fragments of HVS-I were available for the Zibo sample, the entries in this column are only approximate; in particular, one cannot exclude that some default F* haplotypes actually belong to F1a or F2*.
