Our project recommends a minimum of 25 markers be tested, 37 is even better. To be considered a match you should match 11 out of 12 in a 12-marker test, 23 out of 25 for a 25-marker test and 34 out of 37 for a 37-marker test. This does not rule out that you might be related to someone where you don’t match the numbers. You and someone else who don’t match could match a third person, with each of you only mismatching the third person by 2 markers…just 2 different markers. On a different note, what happens if you have documented your tree and are sure you have a connection to another tree, yet the DNA samples don’t match? It could be that in some past generation, the father was not who the child thought it was. For instance, it was not uncommon for orphans to be adopted (legally or just family members raising other family members’s children) and never be told. This is where the public databases in FTDNA and Ysearch become very useful. Your test results can be matched to all results that people have allowed to be public in those databases. If you find a match, you then MAY know the surname tree of your elusive ancestor. This is why it is so important that people make their data public.
There are two ways to display the result of the second test on marker 389. In both cases, the name for the marker is 389-2. The first way to display the result is by showing the result from the original test, which is the total for the entire 389 marker, including the first section. This is how Family Tree DNA displays the result. The second way is to show the result only for the second section that is tested by subtracting the 389-1 score from the original second test score. This is how the Genographic Project displays the result. Basically, converting between the two is easy: simply add together the two 389 values from the Genographic Project to get the 389-2 value for Family Tree DNA, or subtract the 389-1 value from 389-2 from the Family Tree DNA results in order to get the 389-2 value for the Genographic Project. What this means is you may be off one in the 389-2 display, but only because you were off one in the 389-1 marker. If so, it only means you differ by 1 marker, not 2.
FTDNA gives this explanation on the fast moving markers: Y DNA: Marker Selection ________________________________________ From a genealogical perspective, useful markers are those which can change, but which do not change too often. By selecting a mix of markers that change slowly and therefore are relatively stable, as well as more rapidly-changing markers, Family Tree DNA is providing the best selection of markers for genealogical purposes. Multi-copy markers are a very important component of the marker mix. On the Group Administrators' Y-DNA Results Page, fast moving markers are shown in red in the heading. These markers are: DYS 385a, b DYS 439 DYS 458 DYS 449 DYS 464a, b, c, d DYS 456 DYS 576 DYS 570 CDYa, b
You will notice on the above list, that several of the fast moving markers are multi-copy markers, which are very valuable, since they change more rapidly. A multi-copy marker is one where several copies of the marker exist on the Y chromosome. The name of a multi-copy marker includes small letters, such as a or b, following the marker DYS name. When selecting the markers for our various tests, Family Tree DNA included 1 or 2 multi-copy markers in each panel, corresponding to the four Y-DNA tests available. The 12 marker Y DNA test has 1 multi-copy marker. The upgrade to 25 markers adds 2 multi-copy markers, and the upgrades to 37 markers and then to 67 markers each include 2 more multi-copy markers. Inclusion of these multi-copy markers is important based on both scientific attributes of the marker as well as the genealogical implications. Test Multi-Copy Markers ==== ================== 12 Marker 385a, 385b 25 Marker Upgrade 459a, 459b and 464a, 464b, 464c, 464d 37 Marker Upgrade YCA II a, YCA II b and CDY a, CDY b 67 Marker Upgrade 395S1a, 395S1b and 413a, 413b
For markers to have value to genealogical research, they must be stable, but not so stable that they can't differentiate lineage, and also change, but not change so quickly that closely related persons don't match. A well-formed panel includes a range of markers which change more rapidly and markers which change less rapidly. Multi-copy markers tend to change more rapidly. Markers which change more rapidly are valuable to genealogical applications of DNA testing, to differentiate lines or branches, or identify persons who are not related. Rapidly changing markers are valuable in differentiating unrelated individuals using a small number of markers. Marker DYS464 is a rapidly changing Y chromosome marker and a multi-copy marker. It most often has four copies, which are labeled: DYS464a, DYS464b, DYS464c, DYS464d. Marker DYS464 is also known to occur more than four times. Additional copies of DYS464 are called: DYS464e, DYS464f, and so forth. When more than four copies of DYS464 are found in a DNA sample, the results for all the copies are provided by Family Tree DNA. When testing a random sample of 679 males for DYS464, scientists have found that the result 15,15,17,17 occurred in 10.6% of those tested, 15,15,16,17 occurred in 7.5% of the samples, and all the other results occurred less than 5% of the time, with over half these results only occurring once. This illustrates that marker DYS464 is valuable in differentiating unrelated persons.
The results for a multi-copy marker are reported in ascending order. For example, here are some results for DYS464: 11 11 14 16 12 14 15 16 Since the results are reported in ascending order for multi-copy markers, this must be taken into account when comparing the results of the markers between individuals. For example, consider the following results: Example 1: 15 15 17 17 Example 2: 13 13 15 17 At a glance, you may see 3 differences, but there are really only 2. To correctly interpret the results for this multi-copy marker, the results that match are not counted as differences. The 15 in the first example above matches a 15 in the second example, so the 15 is not counted as a difference, even though the two 15's do not line up in the display of the results. A 17 from the first example matches the 17 in the second example. The two 13's in the second example do not have a match in the first example, so in comparing these two results, we find 2 differences. Since multi-copy markers change more rapidly, these markers are an excellent tool to identify branches or lines, or to identify persons who are not related in a genealogical time frame.
