Ancestry DNA Test, also known as Genetic Genealogy Test, is the process of analyzing a person’s DNA to find out their ancestral roots and living distant relatives. For the enthusiasts looking for information related to ancestry and DNA migration, this test serves a great purpose. 

The most common type of ancestry DNA is the autosomal DNA test. It provides a broad view of recent ancestors from 5-7 generations. On the other hand, Y-DNA and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) tests focus on a single ancestral line, for example, paternal or maternal, respectively. 

Besides, the more advanced tests, like the GPS Origins Test, can further reveal the deep ancestral lines pointing to tens of thousands of years. 

Finding the Paternal and Maternal Lineage

  • Paternal Lineage: A paternal ancestry DNA test provides lineage information of the unchanged DNA passed from fathers to sons of the same ancestral line. This test relies on the analysis of the Y chromosome to find out the direct paternal ancestry. This test cannot be performed on females because the Y chromosome is passed only to the sons from their fathers. 
  • Maternal Lineage: This ancestry test is based on the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) passed from a mother to the child. Unlike the paternal ancestry DNA, mtDNA is inherited by both the male and the female. Therefore, this test can be performed on both genders to discover the maternal ancestry.

GPS Origin Ancestry DNA Test

GPS Origin offers a new approach to ancestry DNA results for individuals interested in their lineage. This new process matches your DNA with its database of tens of thousands of autosomal DNA samples.

GPS in this test refers to the Geographics Population Structure. It pins locations of your ancestors after your DNA matches the existing autosomal DNA database.

Things Required for Ancestry DNA Results

  • Sample requisition form and consent
  • DNA sample - Cheek swab (Most Common)
