Understanding the Results

Markers - These are the DYS numbers across the top of the results table (e.g. 393, 385a), and refer to the Locus, or specific location a gene occupies on a chromosome.  The markers in red have shown a faster mutation rate than the average, which is helpful when comparing results.

Alleles - These values are the actual test results.   An allele is determined for every marker in the test (which can be 12 or 25 markers, depending on which test the participant selected). Alleles are what must be compared among participants to see if a match is possible. 

Color Coding - The results for participants who have a genetic match are displayed with the same color.  Results are considered a match if they have at least 11/12 matching markers (for the 12-marker test) or 24/25 matching markers (for the 25-marker test). 

Genetic Matches - If two individuals have a match with 12 markers, there is a 50% likelihood that their Most Recent Common Ancestor falls within 14.5 generations, and a 90% likelihood of 48 generations.  The 25-marker test provides a more precise analysis.  If two individuals have a match with 25 markers, the 50% likelihood drops to 7 generations and the 90% likelihood drops to 19.8 generations.  Since the markers shown in red mutate at a faster rate than the others, this should be taken into consideration when evaluating the results.  If an individual has an 11/12 or 23/25 match with another participant, and the mismatch occurs on one of the fast-mutating markers, there is a greater likelihood that they are related than if the mismatch occurs on one of the slower mutating markers.

ID# - Every participant is represented by an ID number.   Clicking on an ID number will lead you to information on that participant's earliest know Glenn ancestor, and may allow you to view personal information about the participant (name, e-mail address or pedigree chart), depending on how much information the participant has chosen to share.
