Question regarding the Somerled article above

Sorry for not posting this with the article below, but my newserver is not
letting me for some html reason. As historian for Clan MacAlister in the
US, I would like to ask a basic question: Does the Norse "Y" chromosome
mean that Somerled had to have a Norse father? The genealogies have always
recognized that Somerled was half-Norse (the article below seems to be
saying that the genealogies have him as entirely Celtic, which would not be
correct). His father was Gillebride, the King of Argyll (Celtic), who
married the daughter of the King of Man (Norse, at the time).
