Eurogenes K10
**Eurogenes K10 — Modern European Admixture** A fast, user-friendly admixture calculator that breaks a DNA sample into ten regional components (S_Asian, N_E_Euro, NE_African, SW_W_Euro, Med_ME, N_Asian, E_Asian, Sub_Saharan, SE_Asian, W_Asian). Designed for people of European descent, genealogists, and researchers, it reveals broad European affinities, minor external influences, and comparative context to guide deeper ancestral investigations.

10 Reference Populations
S_Asian: South Asian; includes populations from the Indian subcontinent, characterized by a diverse range of cultures and languages.
N_E_Euro: North Eastern European; encompasses populations from the northeastern part of Europe with Slavic and Baltic heritage.
NE_African: Northeast African; includes populations from regions like Egypt and the Horn of Africa, known for ancient civilizations and diverse cultures.
SW_W_Euro: Southwestern and Western European; refers to populations from countries such as Spain, Portugal, and France, characterized by Romance languages and rich historic ties.
Med_ME: Mediterranean and Middle Eastern; features populations around the Mediterranean basin and the Middle East, known for historical trade and cultural exchange.
N_Asian: North Asian; includes populations from the vast region of Siberia, known for its indigenous peoples and harsh climate.

Understanding Admixture Analysis
Learn how admixture calculators work and how to interpret your results
What is Admixture Analysis?
Admixture analysis is a method used to estimate your genetic ancestry by comparing your DNA to reference populations from around the world. Think of it as creating a recipe of your genetic makeup, where the ingredients are different ancestral populations.
This calculator uses 10 carefully selected modern populations as references, allowing for a detailed breakdown of your genetic heritage.
How It Works
- Your DNA is compared to 10 reference populations
- Modern populations are used as genetic references
- Results show your genetic similarity to these populations
- More accurate with a diverse reference panel
Understanding Your Results
Your results will show percentages of genetic similarity to these reference populations. Remember these important points:
- Results reflect genetic similarity, not direct ancestry
- Modern populations are used as references
- Percentages indicate relative genetic contribution
- Results are estimates based on available reference data
