MyHeritage UPDATED

[Boudin]

MyHeritage used to be infamous for having the worst ancestry composition of any DNA company. As of the latest update, that seems to no longer be the case:

"Tiens, voilà du boudin"

This has been the best update for the French, they finally exist for MH.

Me acabo de dar cuenta que un primo de mi padre se hizo el test, me llama la atención que tengamos menos adn compartido que yo con la prima de mi padre de su lado materno o sea mi abuela.

Se hereda mas de la parte materna o es solo casualidad?

Spoiler!

Ni idea de como funciona MH, en teoría la mitad se hereda de cada progenitor, auqnue es cierto que de los dos cromosomas del par 23, uno de ellos es bastante más largo en los hombres, no recuerdo si el Y o el X, pero eso en el caso de MH da igual.

Yo comparto un poco más con mi madre que con mi padre en MH, pero muy poco algo así como un 49.7% y un 50.3%.

Yo diría que es casualidad, debido a los "trozos" de ADN en que se fija MH para comparar.

También podría influir en que muchos trozos serán comunes, incluso aunque no sean familia.

How can you take this seriously, when they lump the Scots and Welsh together?

This is the worst update ever, especially for the French. My father used to get a relatively high percentage of 'Northern French, but now he only gets 30% "French".
The rest of his French results are scattered across different categories because they’ve included French samples in "ethnic groups" where they don't belong. It makes no sense. An "English" group should only contain English samples, not French, Dutch, or others. It’s nonsensical.

For the French, 23andme is the best.

He doesn't get any percentage of Breton?

Can you post his results?
