Is there way in which Legacy Charting 7 can make a colour coded Y-DNA tree that depicts MUTATIONS by colour?
The kind of tree that I mean is illustrated by the very small example at this link: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=3723609 <http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=3723609&l=0a397b4834&id=669076425> &l=0a397b4834&id=669076425 I need to make a very much larger diagram to illustrate the results of the global Greeff DNA project, and it will take forever to make the big diagram by hand, in Powerpoint. I need a chart like the one illustrated, but to show the links between 40 or 50 living clansmen. In other words, a computer generated chart. Each marker in DNA mutates about once in 500 generations or births, but any one of 43 markers will mutate once in 12 births. This means that mutations in a family tree are actually quite common, as is illustrated by the image behind the above link. In the analysis of seven living people we found three different DNA mutations on one marker (Purple, Blue, Green). My problem is that legacy charting will make a one colour chart of all the men in our Y-DNA program, but the chart does not reflect mutations. In other words, Legacy reads the links to sons through the "natural parent" selection instead of by finding an exact same DNA sequence for two people. In other words, the Legacy "DNA Chart" is constructed from BMD information instead of from DNA analyses.
