 | | The presence of Haplogroup K shows a strong correlation with the presence of Haplogroup I, as it to is highest in The Western Isles/isle of Skye/NW Scottish (13.42%), and high among The Austrians/Swiss (9.09%), The Orkney Islanders (9.09%), The Irish (7.81%), and the Icelanders (7.72%). |
 | | Haplogroup J is a neolithic gene marker, showing the spread of agriculture through Northern and Central Europe with one branch; the other showing the Mediterranean influence in the Britsh Isles. |
 | | Haplogroup M includes C, D, E, G and Z. They may all be Mongoloid markers, but some may be ancient markers from before the Caucasoids and Mongoloids split, left over because they are somehow useful (cold resistance?). |
