LM Genetics K15
LM Genetics K15 — 15-way global admixture snapshot
A modern, interpretable K=15 calculator that breaks your autosomal DNA into 15 regional components (e.g., West-African, Siberian, Kalash, Papuan, Red-Sea). Designed for users worldwide, it reveals proportional affinities, signals of deep versus recent admixture, and historical connections—an ideal starting point for genealogy and population-history exploration.

LM Genetics K15 — Modern 15-way Admixture Calculator
LM Genetics K15 decomposes a person's autosomal DNA into 15 reference components representing broad and regional ancestries from across the globe. This calculator compares your genotype to allele-frequency profiles for the following proxies: West-African, Siberian, South-Indian, Ne-Asian, Kalash, Papuan, Paleo-African, Samoyedic, NE-Euro, SE-Asian, Tibeto-Burmese, SW-Euro, Caucasian, Amerindian, and Red-Sea.
What this calculator analyzes
- Relative contributions of 15 reference populations to your autosomal ancestry.
- Signals of deep (ancient) versus more recent regional admixture.
- Patterns that reflect migration events, isolation, and population structure.
Who it's designed for
- Individuals worldwide curious about multi-regional ancestry beyond continental labels.
- Genetic genealogy enthusiasts seeking moderate-resolution components.
- Researchers and students who want an interpretable, reference-based K=15 snapshot.
Insights you can gain
- Proportional ancestry estimates that highlight affinities to well-defined regional proxies (e.g., Kalash-like, NE-Euro, Red-Sea).
- Clues about historical contacts (e.g., Siberian input into Native American ancestors, Papuan signals in Oceanian-admixed profiles).
- A basis for comparing results across calculators or for triaging populations for more detailed study.
Context and caveats
- Reference components are model-based proxies, not literal “pure” peoples. They summarize allele-frequency patterns useful for comparative interpretation.
- Admixture proportions depend on the reference dataset, marker density, and recent drift. Small percentages can reflect deep shared ancestry or noise.
Why this calculator is valuable
- Provides a balanced middle ground between coarse continental splits and highly granular panels.
- Helps users form testable hypotheses about population history and personal ancestry in a globally inclusive framework.

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 15 sorgfältig ausgewählte modern Populationen als Referenzen und ermöglicht eine detaillierte Darstellung Ihrer genetischen Ähnlichkeit.
So funktioniert es
- Ihr DNA wird mit 15 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
