| May 2022 | A Current Biology study of 113 samples revealed the Hungarian elite's genetic composition as approximately 50% Mansi-like, 35% Sarmatian-like, and 15% Hun/Xiongnu-like. |
| July 2020 | A genetic study in the European Journal of Human Genetics traced the Árpád dynasty's male lineage to the R1a subclade, with origins near northern Afghanistan about 4,500 years ago. |
| January 2020 | An Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences study of 19 male Hungarian conquerors found diverse haplogroups, with over 37% carrying N3a-L708 types, suggesting Ugric descent. |
| November 2019 | A Scientific Reports study examined 29 Hungarian conquerors, revealing a diverse genetic composition with at least 30% East Eurasian ancestry, and genetic similarities to Bashkirs. |
| October 2018 | A genetic study in PLOS One traced maternal lineages of Hungarian conquerors primarily to Pontic–Caspian steppe cultures, with one-third linked to Inner Asian populations like Scythians and Xiongnu. |
| September 2016 | A comprehensive archaeogenetic study published in Scientific Reports examined mtDNA of 76 Hungarian-conquest period samples, finding 77% West-Eurasian and 23% Central and East-Eurasian haplogroups. |
| 2011 | A study on lactase persistence polymorphism of 23 elite and commoner samples from the 10-11th century revealed genetic similarities with Uralic linguistic populations and Central Asian groups. |
