GedrosiaDNA Turkic K11

GedrosiaDNA Turkic K11 — Modern global admixture calculator

This calculator estimates ancestry proportions by comparing a tested genome to 11 reference populations chosen to capture major West Eurasian, Central and East Asian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, Oceanian, and Sub-Saharan African variation. It is optimized to highlight components relevant to Turkic-speaking and adjacent Eurasian populations while remaining suitable for global users.

What it analyzes

• Genome-wide autosomal SNP patterns against 11 references: SE_European, W_Asian, SE_Asian, SSA, NE_European, Indian, NW_European, Turkic, Mongol, Papuan, NE_Asian.
• Proportional contributions from these clusters that reflect recent and deep shared ancestry in the modern era.

Who it's designed for

• Researchers and citizen geneticists exploring Eurasian and global admixture patterns.
• People with suspected or documented Turkic, Central Asian, Mongolic, or mixed Eurasian heritage.
• Genealogy enthusiasts seeking a nuanced breakdown beyond continental labels.

Insights you can gain

• Approximate ancestry percentages tied to regional population clusters (e.g., Turkic vs Mongol vs European components).
• Signals of South Asian, Southeast Asian, or Papuan/Oceanian inputs and Sub-Saharan African admixture where present.
• A comparative framework to interpret genetic affinity among Eurasian groups in historical context (migrations, steppe movements, Silk Road exchanges).

Historical and genetic context

Turkic-speaking groups formed through complex interactions across the Eurasian Steppe, mixing local West Eurasian, Inner Asian, Siberian, and South/Central Asian gene pools. This K11 model captures that mosaic by including both putative Turkic and Mongol components alongside neighboring European, South Asian, and East/Southeast Asian signatures.

Why this calculator is valuable

• Provides a targeted, interpretable admixture profile tailored to Turkic and broader Eurasian ancestries.
• Useful for hypoth
