In Table S15 the authors estimate the Neolithic farmer ancestry in several populations on the basis of a single Neolithic individual from the Funnel Beaker (TRB) culture which was found in a megalithic burial in Gökhem parish.
Most of these populations are already part of the Dodecad Ancestry Project, except the three Swedish samples; given the intermediacy of the Central_Sweden sample, I have decided to use my Swedish_D sample of Project participants as a stand-in for it.
Below, you can see a scatterplot relating Gök4-related ancestry with K7b "Southern" component:
The correlation between the two variables is very strong (R-squared = 0.93).
Dodecad Project participants who already have K7b results, as well as customers of DTC testing companies who can use DIYDodecad together with the K7b calculator can approximately estimate their Gök4-related ancestry by plugging in their "Southern" value (in %) into the following equation:
Gök4-related ancestry = 1.721*Southern+19.736
I anticipate that when I am able to study the Neolithic Swedish genomes directly, the Neolithic farmer from Sweden will turn up "Southern" in a K=7 resolution experiment.
DOD018 here. I have a ''Southern'' value of 15% in the K7b run. Just want to know if I did this right or not? Here is what I did below.
ReplyDelete1.721 X 15 + 19.736 = 45.551
So my overall possible Gok4-related ancestry in around 45.551%?
It would be wonderful to see also the Gotlander hunter gatherer comparisons.
ReplyDeleteSkoglund et al. also looked at allele sharing of moderns with Neolithic hunter gatherers. Is there a way to use your admixtures to calculate this?
ReplyDeleteThat's weird DOD156 get 121,8% gok-4 related ancestry,how is that even possible ?
ReplyDeletehe is 59,3% southern.
