Citing y-DNA and big y DNA

Hello everyone,

How do you cite Y-DNA and big  y DNA evidence?  I'm working on a project that requires this kind of evidence

Sincerely,

David

David, to be technical, we aren't citing DNA itself. We're citing evidence from a DNA report or a database of one type or another. EE3 covers these at 4.10 (genetic databases of various types) and 4.27 (testing reports of various types). There's a QuickCheck Model on p. 171. 

We also offer a QuickSheet, "Citing Genetic Sources for History Research," (Kindle version or laminated folder) that includes other treatments not available in EE.
