Description
MDLP K10e is a ModernAncient-category admixture calculator that decomposes an individual's autosomal DNA into ten global ancestral components. Built from the MDLP framework, it compares your genotype to ten reference populations — Papuan, NEA (Northeast Asian), ASI (Ancestral South Indian), Siberian, Easteuropean, Westeuropean, ANI (Ancestral North Indian), SEA (Southeast Asian), African, and Amerindian — to produce a proportional profile of likely ancestries across both modern and deep-time axes. Who it’s for: MDLP K10e is designed for worldwide users: genetic genealogists, population-genetics students, amateur historians, and anyone curious about their multi-regional heritage. It is particularly useful for people with complex, mixed, or understudied backgrounds who want a clearer sense of contributions from broad Eurasian, African, Oceanian, and Native American lineages. What you learn: The calculator provides percentage estimates of each reference component, revealing relative affinities such as South Asian (ANI vs ASI) contrasts, Northeast vs Southeast Asian contributions, European east–west clines, and non-Eurasian ancestries like Papuan and Amerindian. Because it blends modern and ancient signals, K10e highlights both recent admixture and deeper population structure that reflects prehistoric migrations. Context and value: The ten components encapsulate major human migration episodes — Out-of-Africa dispersals, Eurasian differentiation, peopling of the Americas, Austronesian and Papuan diversification, and the complex South Asian ANI–ASI admixture. MDLP K10e translates these broad patterns into an individual-level snapshot, helping users situate their DNA within global population history. Limitations and use: This model is a simplified representation and depends on reference selection and statistical assumptions. Results are best interpreted comparatively (relative affinities rather than exact provenance) and alongside other calculators, haplogroup data, an

Reference Populations

  • Papuan: Indigenous peoples of Papua New Guinea and surrounding islands.
  • NEA (Northeast Asian): Populations from regions like China, Korea, and Japan.
  • ASI (Ancestral South Indian): Ancient population of the Indian subcontinent.
  • Siberian: Indigenous groups from Siberia, Asia.
  • Easteuropean: Populations from Eastern Europe.
  • Westeuropean: Populations from Western Europe.
  • ANI (Ancestral North Indian): Ancient population associated with Northern India, connected to Indo-European migrations.
  • SEA (Southeast Asian): Populations from countries like Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia.
  • African: Indigenous peoples from the African continent.
  • Amerindian: Indigenous peoples of the Americas.

Grouped by Continent

  • Asia: NEA, ASI, Siberian, Papuan, SEA
  • Europe: Easteuropean, Westeuropean
  • Africa: African
  • Americas: Amerindian

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 10 carefully selected modern and ancient populations as references, allowing for a detailed breakdown of your genetic heritage.

How It Works

Key Points
  • Your DNA is compared to 10 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 and ancient populations are used as references
  • Percentages indicate relative genetic contribution from each population
  • Results are estimates based on available reference data
