Effective approaches for assessing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation are important to multiple scientific disciplines. Mitochondrial haplogroups characterize branch points in the phylogeny of mtDNA. Several tools exist for mitochondrial haplogroup classification. However, most require full or partial mtDNA sequence which is often cost prohibitive for studies with large sample sizes. The purpose of this study was to develop Hi-MC, a high-throughput method for mitochondrial haplogroup classifica ...[more]
