Starting
at $119.00Y-DNA - Universal Male Test
Males can test their Y-DNA to determine the origin of their paternal line. Note
that the Y-DNA test strictly checks the paternal line, with no influence from any
females along that line. Females do not receive Y-DNA, and therefore females cannot
be tested for the paternal line. If you are a female and would like to know about
your paternal line, you would need to have a brother or a male relative from that
line tested.
