HGDP K72 Global Comparison

Compare your DNA across 72 modern reference populations.

See how your DNA compares with components built from the combined 1000 Genomes and Human Genome Diversity Project panels. Results describe statistical genetic similarity and are not a record of individual ancestors or personal identity.

Reference coverage

Two public datasets, organized into one detailed comparison.

K72 combines broad international sampling with groups that are often underrepresented in consumer-facing reference panels.

Global variation

1000 Genomes Project

A large international catalog of human genetic variation covering 2,504 individuals across 26 population groups.

Inside the report

Start with the broad pattern, then inspect the signals behind it.

The report follows the same focused hierarchy shown in the live demo, with progressively deeper context instead of one dense result table.

Your results

Regional composition

Review broad regional patterns before opening individual reference-population components.

Reference context

Interactive atlas

See where reference samples are located without treating the map as a record of individual ancestors.

Optional guidance

AI-assisted explanation

Ask about patterns already present in your result. The guidance is informational and not medical or genealogical proof.

Compact review

Summary and methodology

Save a concise result summary and review the limitations that matter when comparing small or overlapping components.

Interpret with care

What the comparison can and cannot tell you.

K72 is most useful for comparing broad patterns across one selected reference framework.

Percentages are model-relative

A component measures relative fit within this model, not a literal share from one nationality or ancestor.

Reference groups overlap

Shared population history can distribute similarity across several related components.

Small signals are tentative

Very small values can reflect model fit or statistical noise and should be compared with broader patterns.

Frequently asked questions.

How is K72 different from other population comparisons?

K72 uses a 72-component statistical model built from the combined 1000 Genomes and Human Genome Diversity Project reference panels. Different tools may return different patterns because their reference samples and model settings differ.

How should I interpret the percentages?

Percentages describe relative similarity to components in this model. They are not literal measures of nationality, ethnicity, cultural identity, or a specific ancestor.

What DNA file formats are supported?

DNA Genics accepts raw DNA files from major testing companies, including 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, FTDNA, Living DNA, and supported whole genome sequencing files.

How long does the analysis take?

If a compatible DNA file is already uploaded, results are typically prepared within 2 to 24 hours. An email notification is sent when processing finishes.

What do very small components mean?

Very small components should be treated as tentative. They may reflect weak model fit, overlap between reference populations, or statistical noise rather than a distinct genealogical connection.
