Online phylogenetic tree of human lineages

Question

I am looking for a source of information about the diversity of human lineages and their relationships.

With a quick google search it is easy to find this type of tree

A perfect online resource would...

• Contain a lot of lineages going to the most detailed lineages
• Contain links to wikipedia or other source of information that could help someone to:
  • identify a group
  • have an overview of their culture
• Contain visualization of their current (or past) geographic range.
• Contain visualization of migration patterns
• As mtDNA and Y chromosome may typically show different story, it'd be great if the resource would differentiate these and highlights specific cases where the two tree differ.

Can you recommend some online resources?

A review paper with nice graphs would also be welcome.

Trees for haplogroups

See

• https://www.eupedia.com/genetics/phylogenetic_trees_Y-DNA_haplogroups.shtml
• https://www.eupedia.com/genetics/
• focus on Europe: https://www.eupedia.com/europe/origins_haplogroups_europe.shtml
  • and many pages linked therein such as https://www.eupedia.com/europe/Haplogroup_J2_Y-DNA.shtml#subclades
• and so on.

More detailed for mtDNA (female lineage):

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_mitochondrial_DNA_haplogroup
  • and many links therein

More detailed for the Y chromosome (male lineage):

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Y-chromosome_DNA_haplogroup
  • and many links therein
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Y-chromosome_haplogroups_in_populations_of_the_world and links therein
• https://isogg.org/tree/index.html and the Google Sheets linked therein
• https://www.yfull.com/tree/

"Trees" for populations

Note that the trees are for genes/haplogroups, whereas such a "tree" for populations actually also has gene flow across branches. Imagine overlaying the tree for mtDNA (female lineage) with the slightly different tree for Y-DNA (male lineage).

Geography of migration

Migration and geographical distance played a key role in the emergence of distinct populations. See

• maps of migration by haplogroups: Human migration by haplogroups, World map of Y-DNA haplogroups, Early human migrations, Simplified interactive map, And so on.
• maps of distribution of haplogroups: mtDNA in Europe, Y-DNA in Europe, many of the links listed here, and so on

Also check out how theories about migration are changing. For example about mutation M174: theory around the year 2010 vs. theory since at least 2016.
