Haplogroup G-M285
In human genetics, Haplogroup G-M285 or G-M342, also known as Haplogroup G1, is a Y-chromosome haplogroup. Haplogroup G1 is a primary subclade of haplogroup G.

| Possible time of origin | 18,500 (95% CI 16,800 <-> 20,200) ybp |
| Possible place of origin | perhaps Iran |
| Ancestor | Haplogroup G (Y-DNA) |
| Descendants | G1a, G1b, G1c |

G1 is possibly believed to have originated in Iran. It has an extremely low frequency in modern populations, except (i) Iran and its western neighbors, and (ii) a region straddling south Central Siberia (Russia) and northern Kazakhstan. The most basal examples of G1 identified in living individuals, which belong to the G-L830 subclade, have been found across an area from the Arabian Peninsula (Northern Borders Region of Saudi Arabia, Ad-Dawhah of Qatar) to Ashkenazi Jews of Belarus (Minsk Region) and China (Anhui).
