Haplogroup U5
Possible time of origin	(Behar 2012b)
Ancestor	U
Descendants	U5a, U5b
Defining mutations	(Bahar & Family Tree DNA 2012)

In human population genetics, mitochondrial (mtDNA) haplogroups define the major lineages of direct maternal (female) lines back to a shared common ancestor in Africa. In human genetics, Haplogroup U is a predominately Eurasian lineage.
