Egy K3

Egy K3 is a modern, globally oriented genetic admixture calculator that compares an individual's genotype to a curated panel of 11 contemporary reference populations (European, African, South Asian, and East Asian groups) to estimate relative ancestral contributions. It is designed for anyone with genome-wide genotype data—researchers, genealogy enthusiasts, students, and curious individuals—who want clear, quantitative insight into recent population affinities and admixture patterns across broad continental and regional lines. The calculator analyzes allele-frequency differences across loci, assigning portions of your genetic profile to reference clusters such as Northern and Western Europeans (CEU), Tuscans (TSI), British (GBR), Finns (FIN), West African groups (YRI, MSL, LWK), South Asians (GIH), and East Asians (CHB, CHS, JPT). Outputs include percentage estimates for each reference group, visual barplots of component proportions, and contextual notes that help interpret those percentages in light of known population history—migrations, clines, and recent gene flow. Users gain: a quantitative snapshot of how their genome aligns with sampled modern populations; identification of major continental ancestry components; clues about recent admixture events; and a tool for comparing results across populations or between relatives. The calculator situates results in genetic and historical context (e.g., Eurasian clines, African diversity, South and East Asian structure) and explains how sample choice and reference limits affect resolution. Why Egy K3 is valuable: it transforms raw genotype data into approachable ancestry summaries grounded in population-genetic principles, useful for hypothesis generation, education, and personal history exploration. Limitations are clearly noted: estimates are relative to the selected references, small proportions may be uncertain, and the tool does not replace professional genetic counseling or deep population-genetic modeling.
