Uncovering your family history with DNA test service is like embarking on an exciting journey. Our DNA has the stories of our forefathers — their origins and what they have passed down to us. This blog dives into the realm of ancestry and how DNA tests can help us connect with our roots. DNA ancestry tests in India examine specific DNA regions to tell your genetic background.

Types of Ancestry DNA Testing

Following are the three types of DNA testing for ancestry that we provide:

  • GPS Origins Ancestry DNA Test: The GPS Origins Ancestry Test can identify the geographic roots of your forefathers with exceptional accuracy. Unlike other testing that only recognizes countries or broad areas, this test can trace specific villages, cities, and towns. It reveals vital information about your forebears’ origins and traces their last three major migrational routes. This test is an excellent choice for those seeking a deep dive into their ancestry.
  • Paternal Lineage Ancestry DNA Test: The paternal lineage DNA ancestry test is vital for tracing a person’s male ancestry, using distinct characteristics of the Y chromosome. This chromosome holds the genetic makeup specific to maleness and is exclusively passed from father to son. This test reveals one’s paternal ancestors’ geographical origins by examining unique Y chromosome markers. It provides an excellent opportunity to delve into the father’s relationships with ancient communities and areas, taking people on a journey through paternal lineage.

If you are a girl and want to know about your father’s side ancestors, you can ask another male member of your family, like a brother, for this test. They will provide the DNA sample required for the test.

  • Maternal Lineage Ancestry DNA Test: Unlike paternal testing, the maternal lineage DNA ancestry test uncovers the maternal ancestry. It examines mtDNA, which mothers pass to both daughters and sons. By studying shared genetic markers, this test reveals where your maternal forefathers originated and recognizes the haplogroup associated with the particular geographical area.
