[4] In commercial testing, O-MF1380 or O-CTS4960, which belongs to O-M117(xM133), has been found in China (Beijing, Henan, Shandong, Jiangsu, Anhui, Chongqing, Guangdong), Singapore, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.

[7] The most recent common ancestor of all extant members of the O-M133 subclade, which predominates among extant members of O-M117, is estimated to have lived in a significantly less ancient era: 7,600 [95% CI 6,400 <-> 8,900] ybp according to YFull,[4] 7,455 [95% CI 6,514 <-> 8,500] years ago according to Karmin et al. 2015,[2] or 7,500 or 6,400 years ago (depending on which estimate of the mutation rate is used) according to Poznik et al.

[4] Members of haplogroup O-M117 also have been found among various ethnic minorities in China, such as Tibetans (13/35 = 37.1%,[11] 45/156 = 28.8%[13]), Dai (13/52 = 25.0% CDX, or Chinese Dai in Xishuangbanna),[4] She people (6/34 = 17.6%[11]), Koreans (4/25 = 16.0% Koreans in the PRC[11]), Hezhe (7/45 = 15.6%[11]), Evenks (4/26 = 15.4%[11]), Manchu (5/35 = 14.3%[11]), Yao in Liannan, Guangdong (5/35 = 14.3%[11]), Mongols (5/45 = 11.1% Inner Mongolian[11]), Qiang (3/33 = 9.1%[11]), Daurs (3/39 = 7.7% Daur[11]), Hani (2/34 = 5.9%[11]), Xibe (2/41 = 4.9%[11]), Uyghurs (3/70 = 4.3%[11]), Oroqen (1/31 = 3.2%[11]), Buyi (1/35 = 2.9%[11]), and Hui (1/35 = 2.9%[11]).

[3][16] In a study of the DNA of Adivasi populations in the state of Meghalaya, Reddy et al. (2007) found O-M133 in 19.7% (14/71) Garo, 13.6% (6/44) Pnar, 11.1% (2/18) Nongtrai, 8.3% (5/60) Lyngngam, 6.9% (2/29) War-Khasi, 6.3% (4/64) Maram, 5.3% (1/19) War-Jaintia, 2.3% (2/87) Khynriam, and 0% (0/32) Bhoi.

O-M117 was not found in this study's samples of Kol (0/62), Santhal (0/51), Kharia (0/34), or Oraon (0/31) from the northern panhandle of West Bengal.

[20] In a study published by Chinese researchers in the year 2006, O-M117 was found with high frequency (8/47 = 17.0%) in a sample of Japanese that should be from Kagawa Prefecture according to the geographical coordinates (134.0°E, 34.2°N) that have been provided (Xue et al. 2006).

[13] In a study published in 2011, haplogroup O-M117 has been found in 7.8% (4/51) of a sample of Hmong Daw in Laos and in 5.1% (37/728) of a set of ethnic minorities who speak various Austroasiatic languages: 32.1% (9/28) Bit, 16.2% (6/37) Kataang, 14.0% (7/50) Mal, 13.7% (7/51) Khmu, 6.9% (2/29) Xinhmul, 3.3% (1/30) Alak, 2.94% (1/34) Inh, 2.86% (1/35) Talieng, 2.0% (1/50) Laven, 2.0% (1/50) Oy, 2.0% (1/50) So, 0% (0/28) Bo, 0% (0/32) Brau, 0% (0/32) Jeh, 0% (0/35) Lamet, 0% (0/35) Ngeq, 0% (0/38) Aheu, 0% (0/39) Suy, and 0% (0/45) Katu.

[25] Haplogroup O-M133 has been found in 4/46 = 8.7% of the KHV (Kinh in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam) sample of the 1000 Genomes Project.
