Dodecad V3
Dodecad V3 — Global admixture in 13 components
A compact, modern admixture calculator that deconvolves autosomal DNA into 13 global reference components (European, Asian, African, Amerindian and subregions). Ideal for ancestry explorers, genealogists, and researchers seeking a clear, comparable snapshot of regional affinities and historical admixture signals. Use with complementary analyses for best insights.

Dodecad V3 — Global Admixture Calculator (Modern era)
Dodecad V3 analyzes genome-wide autosomal variation to estimate ancestry proportions against a compact, interpretable set of 13 reference components that span the modern world. Using model-based ancestry deconvolution, it places an individual's DNA on a global palette of genetic ancestry: East_European, West_European, Mediterranean, West_Asian, South_Asian, Northeast_Asian, Southeast_Asian, Southwest_Asian, Neo_African, East_African, Northwest_African, Palaeo_African, and Amerindian.
Who it’s for:
- Individuals curious about deep and recent ancestry
- Genealogists and hobbyists seeking regional affinity signals
- Population geneticists and students needing a compact reference framework
- Cultural and historical researchers exploring migration patterns
What you gain:
- Quantitative ancestry proportions expressed across 13 well-differentiated components
- A clear, comparable snapshot of regional affinities useful for personal reports or research summaries
- Contextual clues about historical admixture events (e.g., Eurasian steppe influence, African diaspora, Austronesian expansion) when combined with time-aware interpretation
Why it matters: Dodecad V3 balances breadth and interpretability. Thirteen components are few enough to remain intuitive yet broad enough to capture major continental and subcontinental signals. This makes the calculator especially useful when you want a concise, global view rather than an overly fragmented breakdown.
Important notes:
- Results are model-based estimates, not deterministic identities; component labels reflect reference clusters, not exclusive populations.
- Resolution depends on the reference set; fine-scale local ancestry may require regional panels.
- Best used alongside PCA, haplotype analyses, or historical records for richer interpretation.
Dodecad V3 is designed to be a clear, scientifically grounded tool that helps users translate genetic variation into meaning

Was ist eine Admixture-Analyse?
Bei einer Admixture-Analyse wird Ihre genetische Ähnlichkeit geschätzt, indem Ihr DNA mit Referenzpopulationen aus verschiedenen Weltregionen verglichen wird. Die Komponenten des Modells stehen für diese Referenzen und hängen von den zugrunde liegenden Daten und Annahmen ab.
Dieser Rechner nutzt 0 sorgfältig ausgewählte modern Populationen als Referenzen und ermöglicht eine detaillierte Darstellung Ihrer genetischen Ähnlichkeit.
So funktioniert es
- Ihr DNA wird mit 0 Referenzpopulationen verglichen
- Modern-Populationen dienen als genetische Referenzen
- Die Ergebnisse zeigen Ihre genetische Ähnlichkeit zu diesen Populationen
- Ein vielfältiges Referenzpanel verbessert die Schätzungen
Ihre Ergebnisse verstehen
Ihre Ergebnisse zeigen Prozentsätze der genetischen Ähnlichkeit zu diesen Referenzpopulationen. Beachten Sie diese Punkte:
- Die Ergebnisse spiegeln genetische Ähnlichkeit wider, nicht nachgewiesene direkte Abstammung
- Modern-Populationen werden als Referenzen verwendet
- Die Prozentsätze geben relative Beiträge im Modell an
- Die Ergebnisse sind Schätzungen auf Basis der verfügbaren Referenzdaten
