    1. [R-M222] M222 and WTY

    3. I am sure we all were hoping that with all the new SNPs being discovered, one would be identified to divide M222. Apparently, no such luck. I asked David Reynolds if it would help for me to take the WTY test. David replied that only one M222 has been tested, but the young age of M222 may mean no additional SNP. He suggested I wait until the current backlog of WTY orders is run through, and after 2-3 months he will look at this again. I then queried Kirsten Saxe, and she replied that the Finch2 data indicates that three M222 have been tested--137003 (Mannion), 17624, and 192014. Kirsten did not have names for the latter two, but I found 192014 (McNeely) on the M222 project list. I could not identify 17624. Can anyone confirm that three M222s have been WTY tested with no new SNPs discovered? If only one has been tested, I am willing to hazard the $750 cost, but if three have been tested with no additional info discovered, perhaps I should wait for a future increase in the size of the test.
