                        Reference Populations
- Scandinavian - Populations from Northern Europe, including countries like Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland.
 
- Volga_Region - Populations around the Volga River, including ethnic groups like the Mari, Mordvins, and Tatars in Russia.
 
- Altaic - Populations from Central Asia and Siberia, often associated with Turkic, Mongolic, and Tungusic groups.
 
- Celto_Germanic - Populations from Central and Western Europe, encompassing Celtic nations (e.g., Ireland, Scotland, Wales) and Germanic regions (e.g., Germany, Netherlands).
 
- Caucassian_Anatolian_Balkanic - Diverse populations from the Caucasus region (e.g., Georgians, Armenians), Anatolia (modern-day Turkey), and the Balkans (e.g., Greeks, Bulgarians).
 
- Balto_Slavic - Populations from Eastern Europe, including Baltic states (e.g., Lithuania, Latvia) and Slavic countries (e.g., Poland, Russia).
 
- North_Atlantic - Populations from nations bordering the North Atlantic Ocean, particularly coastal Western Europe and the British Isles.
 
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 7 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 7 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
