The mutation spectrum of hyperphenylalaninaemia in the Republic of
Ireland: the population history of the Irish revisited
http://vetinarilord.blogspot.com/2005/12/y-chromosome-variation-and-irish.html
Extract:
An analysis of mutant allele distributions in Ulster, Scotland and the rest of
Ireland confirmed that Ulster has been a zone of considerable admixture between
the Irish and Scottish populations, indicating a proportion of Scottish
admixture in Ulster approaching 46%. Mutations primarily associated with
Scandinavia accounted for 6.1% of mutations overall, illustrating the influence
of Viking incursions on Irish population history.

U'Neil
is 20% in Northwest Ireland
A Y-Chromosome Signature of Hegemony in Gaelic Ireland
http://vetinarilord.blogspot.com/2005/12/y-chromosome-variation-and-irish.html
Seventeen-marker simple tandem repeat genetic analysis of Irish Y chromosomes
reveals a previously unnoted modal haplotype that peaks in frequency in the
northwestern part of the island. It shows a significant association with
surnames purported to have descended from the most important and enduring
dynasty of early medieval Ireland, the U'Neill. This suggests that such
phylogenetic predominance is a biological record of past hegemony and supports
the veracity of semimythological early genealogies. The fact that about one in
five males sampled in northwestern Ireland is likely a patrilineal descendent of
a single early medieval ancestor is a powerful illustration of the potential
link between prolificacy and power and of how Y-chromosome phylogeography can be
influenced by social selection.

Brit-Am Remarks:
This URL judging by the Bibliography is run by an Ephraimite follower of the
Angus
and Batya Wooten House of David grouping.
The site is useful for its links and perhaps for some its suggestions.
They seem to want to trace the Lost Ten Tribes to the DNA Y-Haplogroups R, Q,
and N
with an emphasis on R.
R is found mostly amongst most West ("Celts"?) and East Europeans ("Slavs"?),
and Indian "Aryans".
Q amongst Siberian Natives, N in Amerindians.
This to our mind is an exaggeration and incorrect.
Nevertheless the site makes for light reading and may be worth looking at.
