Admixture Calculator
Eurogenes K35
**Eurogenes K35 — Global modern-era admixture** A compact, interpretable calculator that decomposes your genome against 37 regional reference groups. Ideal for global users, it reveals percent ancestry across Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas, highlights regional affinities and migration echoes, and serves as a practical starting point for genealogy and population comparisons.

About This Calculator
**Eurogenes K35 — Modern-era global admixture calculator**
This calculator quantifies ancestry by comparing your DNA against a curated panel of 37 modern and regional reference populations. Designed for global users, Eurogenes K35 breaks your genome into proportionate components that reflect broad geographic and historical genetic clusters — from West African and Near Eastern to Northern European, South Asian and East Asian signals.
What it analyzes:
- Genome-wide admixture proportions across 37 reference groups representing Africa, Europe, the Middle East, South and East Asia, Siberia, Oceania and the Americas.
- Relative affinities to regional clusters (e.g., North_Atlantic, East_Med, Volga-Ural, South_Central_Asian) to reveal finer-scale structure than coarse continental summaries.
Who it's for:
- Genealogy enthusiasts, amateur population geneticists, family historians and curious individuals worldwide.
- Researchers seeking a compact modern-era reference for comparative analyses or cross-checking other calculators.
Insights you can gain:
- Percent breakdowns that suggest likely regional ancestries and historical admixture patterns.
- Clues about recent vs. deep ancestry (e.g., North European vs. Near Eastern components), migration echoes (steppe, farmers, maritime contacts), and potential source regions for specific segments of your genome.
Historical/genetic context:
- Modern populations are mosaics created by millennia of migrations: hunter-gatherers, Neolithic farmers, Bronze Age steppe movements, transcontinental trade and more recent expansions (Bantu, Arab, Austronesian, colonial era).
- Eurogenes K35 frames those legacies using modern reference clusters to help interpret genetic echoes in contemporary DNA.
Why it’s valuable:
- Fine-grained, globally balanced reference set for nuanced ancestry profiles.
- A practical, interpretable starting point for personal ancestry exploration and comparative population work.

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 35 carefully selected modern populations as references, allowing for a detailed breakdown of your genetic heritage.
How It Works
- Your DNA is compared to 35 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
