[46], Numerous studies by teams of biochemists led by M. V. Derenko (2007), based on the Y-DNA of people who claim to be modern descendants of Genghis Khan, have indicated that Genghis Khan may have belonged to a subclade of Haplogroup C-M217 (C2) such as C-F4002 (C2b1a3). It is mainly centered around the region referred to as the fertile crescent. Or it could have been one of the lineages of Chalcolithic Southeast and Central Europe.

In human genetics, Haplogroup J2 (M172) is a Y-chromosome haplogroup which is a subdivision of haplogroup J. Haplogroup J2 is widely believed to be associated with the spread of agriculture from the northern Fertile Crescent, the Levant, and Anatolia [1],[2]. [43], Fath-Ali Shah Qajar (17721834), the second emperor and shah of the Qajar dynasty of Iran belonged to Haplogroup J-M267 with DYS388 = 13 as deduced from testing of descendants of several of his sons.

A few kuge (court aristocracy) families also descend from the Minamoto, such as the Koga. His descendants later became Marquesses of Huntly (1599-present), as well as Dukes of Gordon from 1684 to 1836. Origin and diffusion of human Y chromosome haplogroup J1-M267 - Nature Somerland drove the Vikings out of Scotland and became King of Mann and the Isles. Citing Family Tree DNA's own data that shows that more than 9% of the German and Austrian population belong to E-M35, and that about 80% of these are not Jewish, Hammer concluded, "[t]his data clearly shows that just because one person belongs to the branch of the Y-chromosome referred to as haplogroup E1b1b, that does not mean the person is likely to be of Jewish ancestry."[54]. The parent clade (FGC52782) has been found in Scandinavia and points to a common ancestor living a bit over 1000 years ago, suggesting that the Seton-Gordon line was of Viking origin.

It is also common amongst Bedouins. The influential Randolph family of Virginia belongs to R1b-P312 > Z39300 (aka PH2278) based on the results from the Randolph/Randall/Randle/Randol Surname Group (Albemarle County group). The drawback of this hypothesis is that it doesn't explain why R1b lineages strongly outnumber J2b2 in Europe but not in South Asia. (GDrive) , 46 Pre-Chalcolithic J-M172 main sub-haplogroups, Y-SNP analysis of I4331, J2b2a-L283, Bronze Age Croatia Mathieson et al. Bogdanowicza et al. recognized by geneticists.
