So glad to read about the E3b group. My husband with roots confirmed to Puerto Rico is only 1 point different from the Berber modal on 25 loci. Margretta

The subclade for E3b1b M81+ actually has some fairly distinctive marker
combinations that separate it out, such as 391=9, 385a,b=13,14 and 439=10.
You can see these in the histograms at E3b Project. Also, here is a link to
a Ysearch comparison of the E3b1b M81+ modal and the Penner haplotypes
