PhyloTree

PhyloTree has been the standard site for the mtDNA phylogenetic tree. From Mannis van Oven and his initial publications on the topic.

As we have not mentioned elsewhere, we should point out the MITOMAP (link below) from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) that has been publishing extensive mtDNA work for 20+ years and keeps its site very current. Like ISOGG and their tree, MITOMAP focus more on work from published, scientific papers covering mtDNA. They do not focus on a current tree but due have a figure, kept reasonably up to date, that includes a tree (see link below). yFull has, as of 2019, started to try and expand the mtDNA tree due to the many consumer WGS test results covering mtDNA. (This page has become more about mtDNA phylogenetic trees than just about PhyloTree as we have nowhere else to capture it currently. This site has been more about yDNA after all.)

PhyloTree also has been a site for the top-level, simplified yDNA phylogenetic tree originally given in the YCC naming diagram published early on but not replicated by many yDNA tree providers. (Originally, yFull had been using it but now has even expanded the R haplogroup at the top level to create more balance of the top nodes and quicker navigation down into the deep R haplogroup.)
