In 2016, the year, the group of etnogenomists — Gavaachimed Lkhagvasuren, Heejin Shin and others, conducted the opening of burial of the remains of the five noble family of the Mongolian elite, who lived in 1130-1250 yy., In the Tavan Tolgoi (Mongolia). These researchers hypothesized that this burial of 'Descent from Genghis Khan' or their relatives in the male or female line.

In the burial of Tavan Tolgoi, the haplotypes MN0104 and MN0126 had been tested terminal SNP — R1b-M343. According to the data marker these haplotypes from Subclade R1b-M73. Researchers — the haplotypes MN0104 and MN0126 attributed to Genghis Khan or his relatives in the male or female line.

It is noteworthy that the third haplotype paleo-DNA MN0376 of burial Tavan Tolgoi at markers matches-close to the descendants of Asii-Alans of the Caucasus — Karachay-Balkar R1a-Y934, and it is quite possible that belongs to asuds — Asii-Alans warriors in army of Genghis Khan's descendants. But for MN0376 was defined haplogroup R1a1a.

As is known Hoelun was betrothed to merkitian warrior Chiledu in 1153 and it is quite possible that she was pregnant by him. But there are two counterarguments:

1) Is not known the exact date of birth of the first son Yesugei — Temujin, and it is not known exactly when Yesugei Bahadar stole Hoelun — Chiledu at Merkits.

2) If the kidnapping Yesugei — Hoelun and the birth of his first child Temujin — occurred right after the abduction Hoelun, within 9 months, possibly a Genghis Khan was a descendant of Merkit Chiledu.
