Do you use latest MJ version?
Yandex bot is detected as desktop device by all device detecting plugins (AMDD, Scientia, Simple), and forced mobile URL (with ?device=xhtml or ?device-iphone parameter) has canonical link attribute (supported by Yandex from 2011).
Could you post URL of your website?

Do you use additional caching on the site (System-Cache plugin, caching proxy like Varnish, etc.)?

Looks like Yandex used nonstandard User-Agent header to grab your site content. Usually the following UA is used:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; YandexBot/3.0; +yandex.com/bots)
and this UA is detected as desktop device by all device detecting plugins. I've found page mobilejoomla.com/ua.php in yandex's search and it was indexed using above mentioned User-Agent.

Yes, mobile subdomain may fix the issue.

Mobile Joomla doesn't creates subdomains (that is it doesn't change DNS or webserver settings), but it allows you to use existing subdomains for mobile site version.
The first step to make mobile subdomain is to setup subdomain as an alias to main domain. We usually recommend to disable Mobile Joomla by unpublishing Mobile Joomla Plugin and then get your site working via both main domain and subdomain (that is subdomain displays identical page). Usually webhosters allow either to make aliases directly (there is special field in main domain settings), or indirectly via possibility to set DocumentRoot directory for subdomain identical to the main domain DocumentRoot (note that in most cases it's done at creating of subdomain and you cannot change it further).
After that you can enable Mobile Joomla and test this subdomain for mobile version.

Yes, but subdomain should be an alias to main domain (point to the same directory, not a separate one).
