DNA Tests for both Paternal and Maternal Lineages - anybody have one done?

[NoSavingByTheBell]

DNA testing is by and large up to 99.99% accurate for most of the tests. This is possible due to modern technology and rules for DNA analysis. Most DNA tests are carried out at least two times, independently of each other. This ensures that there is no wrong data used in the first test or that no incorrect marker analysis in the first test. Such a procedure also helps the credibility of the test. If, by any chance, there is a discrepancy between the two tests, then fresh samples could be collected and the entire process carried out again. That poster named walrus is just misinformed because maternal and paternal haplogroup testing can trace lineage further back (20-100 generations) than microarray-based autosomal DNA testing (around 10 generations). DNA testing companies like 23andMe are working to improve their ability to provide detailed results for customers with non-European ancestry thanks to their Global Genetics Project initiative. By providing testing kits to people with four grandparents from one of over 50 underrepresented countries, this will help pave the way for more accurate findings.

In fact, encouraging more people around the world to undertake ancestry DNA tests can give the process a huge boost when it comes to accuracy. The more extensive the databases become, the more reliable test results will be in the future.
