Reference Populations
- African: Populations from the African continent, characterized by high genetic diversity and long historical continuity.
- Central-Siberian: Indigenous groups inhabiting central regions of Siberia, known for their adaptation to harsh climates.
- EastAsian: Populations primarily from countries like China, Japan, and Korea, with a rich history of ancient civilizations.
- European: Diverse populations across Europe, with distinct genetic lineages influenced by various historical migrations.
- Gedrosia: Refers to ancient populations spanning parts of Iran and Pakistan, known for historical trade and migration routes.
- Mongol_Turkic: Populations with Mongolic and Turkic roots, historically found across Central Asia.
- NativeAmerican-EastSiberian: Indigenous groups originating from the Americas and Eastern Siberia, sharing ancient migratory ancestry.
- NortheastAsian: Includes populations from regions such as Mongolia, Eastern Russia, and parts of Northern China.
- Semitic: Refers to populations from the Middle East, with languages and cultures stemming from ancient Semitic origins.
- SoutheastAsian: Populations from countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia, known for diverse cultures and maritime history.
- Tibetan: Populations native to Tibet and surrounding high-altitude regions, adapted to their unique environment.
What is Admixture Analysis?
Admixture analysis is a method used to estimate your genetic ancestry by comparing your DNA to reference populations from around the world. Think of it as creating a recipe of your genetic makeup, where the ingredients are different ancestral populations.
This calculator uses 11 carefully selected modern populations as references, allowing for a detailed breakdown of your genetic heritage.
How It Works
Key Points
- Your DNA is compared to 11 reference populations
- Modern populations are used as references
- Results show your genetic similarity to these populations
Understanding Your Results
Your results will show percentages of genetic similarity to these reference populations. Remember:
- Results reflect genetic similarity, not direct ancestry
- Modern populations are used as references
- Percentages indicate relative genetic contribution from each population
- Results are estimates based on available reference data
