Haplogroup CF

Haplogroup CF, also known as CF-P143 and CT(xDE), is a human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. CF is defined by the SNP P143, and its existence and distribution are inferred from the fact that haplogroups descended from CF include most human male lineages in Eurasia, Oceania, and The Americas. CF descends from CT (CT-M168), and is the sibling of DE. CF has two basal branches, Haplogroup C and Haplogroup F.

Distribution
There are, as yet, no confirmed cases of living individuals or human remains belonging to the basal, undivergent haplogroup CF*. In the year 2017, C-M217 (C2) & C-M130 were reported among males belonging to the Shan peoples, who are concentrated in central-east Burma (as well as neighboring parts of China, Laos and Thailand). However, the researchers concerned (Brunelli et al.) did not rule out all other subclades of CF, such as haplogroup F, in these particular cases. (In haplogroup F2 has previously been identified in the same geographical region. )

C
Haplogroup C is a subclade of haplogroup CF.

F
Haplogroup F is a subclade of haplogroup CF.
