Question:

Is it possible for a male to link his father's mother's genetics to his own for genealogy studies?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: No, male DNA can only be traced along the male line (the Y chromosome).

However, if your father has a sister, she would share mtDNA with your father's mother, testing her would allow you to have your father's mother's mtDNA for testing purposes.
