Y-chromosome evidence suggests a common paternal heritage of Austro-Asiatic populations.
.....
RESULTS: Our results suggest a strong paternal genetic link, not only among the subgroups of Indian Austro-Asiatic populations but also with those of Southeast Asia. However, maternal link based on mtDNA is not evident. The results also indicate that the haplogroup O-M95 had originated in the Indian Austro-Asiatic populations ~65,000 yrs BP (95% C.I.25,442-132,230) and their ancestors carried it further to Southeast Asia via the Northeast Indian corridor. Subsequently, in the process of expansion, the Mon-Khmer populations from Southeast Asia seem to have migrated and colonized Andaman and Nicobar Islands at a much later point of time.
CONCLUSION: Our findings are consistent with the linguistic evidence, which suggests that the linguistic ancestors of the Austro-Asiatic populations have originated in India and then migrated to Southeast Asia.

Amazing. Talageri's endorsement of Chatterji's Indian AA theory may yet be proven right. If they need such ancient time depths and specific markers to link the Indian AA poplations to SEA, then what about all the other markers known to originate in India? What were they linked with? We can complete the china-Mao, India-Nehru equivalency with a similar SEA-Ho factor.
