fastIBD analysis of Central/Eastern Europe

Please refer to the previous analysis on the Balkans/West Asia for more information about the interpretation of this type of analysis.

Clusters Galore


The Clusters Galore can be found in the spreadsheet. After inspection of the 23 clusters inferred with 21 dimensions, they could be described as:

1. Mordvin
2. East Slavic
3. Polish-Ukrainian
4. East Balkan
5. Vologda Russians
6. Lithuanian
7. Central European (combining many groups with small sample sizes)
8. A couple of related (?) individuals
9. Anatolian
10. Greek
11. Chuvash
12. Ossetian
13. A couple of related individuals
14. A couple of related individuals
15. Balkar
16. A couple of related individuals
17. Chechen
18. Kumyk
19. A couple of related individuals
20. Adygei
21. Lezgin #1 (main)
22. Lezgin #2
23. Lezgin #3

If you belong to a population with few other participants, you might end up latching onto a cluster dominated by a bigger group. This does not mean that your population is not distinctive, only that there are not enough samples to reveal its distinctiveness if it exists.

Inter-Population IBD

Results for Dodecad Participants

Results can be found in the spreadsheet.

If you have joined the Project, please consider leaving a comment in the Information about Project samples thread. That will help others make better sense of their results, e.g., if you find that you belong in the same cluster with some other individual, you might want to know something about their origins.

UPDATE: I have added the IBD sharing matrix.See here on how to use it.
