LM Genetics Global K3

LM Genetics Global K3 is a modern autosomal admixture calculator that estimates an individual’s global ancestry composition by comparing genotype data to a curated set of reference populations. It is designed for a world‑wide audience — from curious consumers and adoptees to genealogists, educators, and population geneticists — who want a clear, high‑level portrait of their major ancestral components. The calculator uses allele‑frequency comparisons against nine reference populations (labels preserved from the reference panel: Negroid, Sub‑Saharan African, Europeid, European, Middle Eastern, Caucasus, Mongoloid, East Asian, Native American) to derive proportional contributions projected onto three primary global clusters (broad African, West Eurasian, and East Asian/Amerindian axes). Results explain what fraction of your autosomal DNA most closely matches each global component, highlight affinities to regional references, and indicate the relative strength of mixed ancestry signals. The tool emphasizes interpretability: outputs are presented as probabilistic proportions with guidance on how to read them, typical sources of uncertainty, and the historical context that produces the patterns you see — for example, ancient migrations out of Africa, Holocene expansions across Eurasia, and the peopling of the Americas. It also notes methodological limits: labels in the reference panel reflect historical anthropological categories and are a simplification of continuous genetic variation; they serve as anchors rather than precise ethnic assignments. LM Genetics Global K3 is valuable because it gives a rapid, reproducible overview of major ancestral components, suitable for comparing many samples, teaching population structure, or providing an accessible first look before deeper, regionally refined analyses. By combining a transparent reference set with modern comparative methods and clear explanatory notes, this calculator helps users place personal or sample genotypes int
