Description
DNA Genics 1000HGDP K72 is a modern, high-resolution genetic admixture calculator that estimates an individual’s ancestry proportions by comparing their genotype to a curated panel of 71 contemporary reference populations drawn from Africa, Europe, East and South Asia, the Americas, Oceania and the Middle East. Built for curious individuals, genealogists, and population geneticists, this tool translates your raw genotype data into a detailed portrait of regional affinities and continental components, helping you see which modern populations your DNA most closely resembles. What it analyzes: The calculator measures allele-frequency similarity between your sample and each reference group, producing proportional admixture estimates across 72 modeled components. It highlights mixtures typical of recent history (e.g., European–Middle Eastern blends) and deeper regional signals (e.g., West African, Central Asian, East Asian, Native American, Papuan). The included reference set—ranging from Yoruba, Mbuti and San to Han, Japanese, Finn, Druze, Kalash, Maya and Papuan—provides broad geographic coverage for nuanced comparisons. Who it’s for: Whether you are tracing family origins, researching population structure, validating ancestry hypotheses, or teaching genetics, this calculator offers accessible, scientifically grounded results. Advanced users will appreciate the breadth of reference populations for comparative analysis. Insights and context: Results can reveal dominant ancestry components, detect minor admixture contributions, and suggest likely regional origins. They are most informative when interpreted alongside historical, linguistic and genealogical evidence. The model leverages modern population samples, so it illuminates recent and intermediate timescales rather than direct ancestry to prehistoric groups. Value: DNA Genics 1000HGDP K72 delivers a clear, fine-grained view of your genetic affinities using a comprehensive, contemporary reference panel. It is a p

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 72 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 72 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
