Reference Populations
Admixture Reference Panels
Siberian: Indigenous peoples of Siberia, including groups such as the Yakuts and Evenks, who have lived in the harsh climates of northern Asia.
SEA (Southeast Asian): Encompasses ethnic groups such as the Thai, Vietnamese, and Filipinos, residing in the tropical regions of Southeast Asia.
Papuan: Refers to the indigenous people of Papua New Guinea and neighboring islands, known for their diverse cultures and languages.
African: Diverse populations from the African continent, including groups like the Yoruba, Bantu, and Khoisan, with rich cultural heritages.
Amerindian: Indigenous peoples of the Americas, including North, Central, and South America, such as the Navajo, Mayans, and Quechuas.
Indian: Populations from the Indian subcontinent, including ethnic groups such as the Gujarati, Punjabi, and Dravidian peoples.
Onge: Indigenous Andamanese people of the Andaman Islands, known for their distinct cultural and genetic history.
Asian Arctic: Indigenous groups inhabiting the Asian parts of the Arctic, such as the Chukchi and Siberian Yupik.
Northeuropean: Populations from Northern Europe, including the Scandinavians, English, and Finns, known for their shared linguistic and genetic traits.
Westasian: Encompasses populations from Western Asia, including the Arabs, Persians, and Anatolians, with a profound historical and genetic legacy.

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 11 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 11 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
