For a comparison of different testing companies, see the summary prepared by ISOGG, the International Society Of Genetic Genealogy

• Autosomal DNA Testing Comparison Chart


To see more information about the major testing companies, please visit their web sites below.   Please note that - unlike the genealogy web sites - unless you have your DNA results on one of these web sites, there is limited exploration possible.  But you can check what a company offers, and their fees.

• 23andMe
• FamilytreeDNA
• Ancestry DNA
• National Geographic Genographic Project
• MyHeritageDNA
• LivingDNA


You might like to consider using GEDmatch which does not do testing, but which provides a comparison of DNA tested by 23andMe, FamilyTreeDNA, AncestryDNA and MyHeritageDNA.

  BIFHSGO DNA Special Interest Group
  Some of the research room assistants will be able to answer your questions about DNA, but if you wish to dig further into the subject, we suggest you look into our DNA Special Interest Group.
  
  The group meets quarterly at the City of Ottawa Central Archives to share experiences, information, and ideas about the use of DNA evidence in exploring family history.  We invite BIFHSGO members and non-members to join us for any of the following meeting dates.
  
  Please check our  DNA homepage.    See for example the section "Resources and handouts from our meetings" and the handout by Shirley Monkhouse:  Sources and Resources For Genetic DNA Genealogy Research
