G is low and no J1. Anatolian admixture is almost absent.

Aren't Anatolian farmers also J2a ? I am not sure that's why I ask.
I will post more about specific subclades too.

yeah too. i think J1/J2a is caucasus admix and G is neolithic anatolian.

Subclade distribution

I2 dinaric south subclade is defined with SNP PH908, which can be predicted in 44 out of 45 samples.
PH908 has two major branches which were detected in Croatian samples:
- A13912
- Z16983

R1a Z280 is divided into many subclades, and by far the most common among Croats is Y2613 (''Carpatho-Dalmatian'') with 14 samples.
Second most common is YP343 (''western Carpathian''). Other common Z280 subclades are Z92 (''Baltic'') and Y2902 (''Volga-Carpathian'')

R1a M458 was divided to L260 and L1029 lineages.

E-V13 haplogroup most common branch was Z16988 with 5 samples. Other V13 subclades found among Croats are Z17017 and S2972.

Among R1b samples, those belonging to ''eastern'' L23 branch fall into Z2103/BY611 cluster.

I1 samples were mainly assigned to M253 lineage.

Not exceptionally different from the Romanian ones. Although, as I said in another thread, I calculated some frequencies based on some 23andme results and the results were quite unexpected. 35% R1a and 20% I2. (the sample size was small but still) Anyway, interesting post!

Well yes, the percentages can change depend on how many regions are tested. I think this is more or lesss accurate. We still have some regions that are under-sampled in commmercial tests, but Croatia has been well-covered by professional genetic researches (in Europa Nazione post). I was more interested in specific subclades by doing this, especially R1a. One research pointed that Croatian type of R1a was mainly M458 which was proved erraneous by later studies and amateur statistics like this one.

Samples are from Croatian Family Tree DNA project and from Croats from Serbian DNA project
R1a = 26%
R1b = 9%

Quite decent results...

G1 = 1%
G2 = 1%

And that is interesting!
Not only "high" amount of G1 but it's equal level to G2... two x 1.5 persons

I1 samples were mainly assigned to M253 lineage.

But it is main lineage... I1 itself.
