Family P lineage

Family P lineage refers to a specific group within the Y-chromosome DNA community, tracing male ancestry through paternal lines. It is characterized by distinct genetic markers passed from fathers to sons over generations, helping researchers identify common ancestors and migration patterns. This lineage is useful in understanding human migration, historical population relationships, and genetic diversity within populations. Since the Y-chromosome is inherited only from the father, Family P provides a clear lineage marker for studying male ancestry in a robust and straightforward manner.
