Description
Eurogenes K15 is a modern, global admixture calculator that estimates the proportional genetic affinities of an individual across 15 broad reference components. It compares your autosomal genotype to curated reference clusters β€” Amerindian, Atlantic, Baltic, East_Med, Eastern_Euro, North_Sea, Northeast_African, Oceanian, Red_Sea, Siberian, South_Asian, Southeast_Asian, Sub-Saharan, West_Asian, and West_Med β€” to produce a concise, interpretable breakdown of ancestry. Designed for users worldwide, from hobbyist genealogists to population geneticists, it provides a snapshot of how your DNA aligns with major regional gene pools identified in contemporary datasets. What it analyzes: Eurogenes K15 measures allele-frequency similarities between your genotype and fifteen modelled populations, producing percent estimates for each component. These components represent broad historical and geographic clusters rather than strict ethnic labels, reflecting long-term human migrations, admixture events, and regional continuity. Who it’s for: The calculator is useful for anyone curious about their deep ancestry or comparative population structure β€” including individuals with mixed backgrounds, researchers seeking an additional reference point, and community projects mapping regional patterns. Insights you can gain: Expect to see major continental influences (e.g., West_Med, Sub-Saharan, East_Med), finer regional signals (Baltic vs. North_Sea vs. Atlantic), and traces of long-range ancestries (Siberian, Oceanian, Amerindian). These proportions can help interpret recent family history, ancient migration legacies, and affinities that standard single-source labels may miss. Historical/genetic context: The components reflect patterns shaped by major prehistoric and historic processes β€” Out-of-Africa expansions, Eurasian steppe movements, Neolithic farming dispersals, coastal and maritime interactions, and more recent transcontinental gene flow. Eurogenes K15 synthesizes these pattern

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 15 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 15 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
