Shazou's MyHeritage DNA results

[Iloko]

It's strange, I transferred my dna to this company but I never get this kind of thing, even after done processing :/

They currently don't offer free ethnicity reports for data uploaders, though you can get DNA relative matches I believe. Maybe in the future they may offer a free basic report, but currently their ethnicity estimate feature is reserved for customers who buy their official DNA kit.

To me this company is better than 23andme for ethnicity reports since they are increasing their reference panel to 100-200 in a matter of a very short time in the future. 23andme only offers 31 reference populations.

Ah, and isn't it true that 23andme once held the title of best DNA testing company?

If this all works out I might have to order a myheritagedna kit.

23andme hasn't updated their ancestry composition in like forever. They are slackers and never meet deadlines. 23andme must now move over for the new player in the genetic genealogy game: MyHeritage. Just imagine 200 reference populations though..that is ginormous; I doubt 23andme will ever ever have that amount any time soon.

Order your MH kit as soon as you can!

I've got the dough, and this might be just the perfect thing to spend it on lol.

So to be clear, they will be updating it soon?

According to the news they published online back in Nov-2016 they claimed the update will be a matter of "a very short amount of time", or "a few months". To be honest I'm not sure if that meant 3 months or 6 months or 9 months, but I have a feeling it will be sometime soon. "200 reference populations within the next few months" sounds very enticing to me though, so I was motivated to immediately buying their kit.

Do you have any sample K15 that looks like that, I would love to see the Oracle for that person.

Basque country is in Northern Spain btw right? Could 'Basque' be a possibility I wonder?

I've read that apart from Andalusians there were also a lot of Basque settlers in the Philippines. I read the majority of the Spanish in the Philippines were Andalusians though, though I'm not too sure how trustworthy that source online was.

..4.5% is about what I got on puntDNAL K15 which precisely was 4.44% I believe.

I think Enflammé has that kind of fit often, he s just above Catalans and actually has Sardinian ancestry. Catalan theorically work better than Basque, but depends on many things on their admixture test.

He could fit simply as 3/4 French+German (which is what all companies always define as "west-central") + 1/4 Sardinian.

Pretty much like your 3.4% + 1.1% Sardinian, which translate in your whole European being 75.5% west central + 24.5% Sardinian in their test, that would be a very northern Catalan. Again assuming that the proportions Myheritage give you, are decimal perfect, so that's just some prospective here with the numbers.

Wow very insightful, thank you! I will look over all of this info.

I read here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filipi...anish_ancestry that Catalans were also a minority Spanish population in the Philippines along with the Basques..while Andalusians represented the majority. If I ever visit Spain someday I will go to Northern Spain lol.

What might you think a full ANDALUSIAN and a GALICIAN respectively at the opposite corners of Spain's map might score on MyHeritageDNA's test in comparison to my percentages/results if you were to guess that is? I'm really curious about this lol.



if mine is proportionately 75.5% west central + 24.5% Sardinian in comparison...

What happened to the Native American you scored in 23andme? Did it disssapear in MyHeritage DNA?

Minor Native American shows up for me on FTDNA & Gedmatch! But maybe it's just too small to be detected on certain occasions. MyHeritage results are currently in BETA stage though so it might change in a future update when they are no longer in BETA, who knows. MH does seem to detect Euro admixture in Filipinos more effectively and in higher amounts than 23andme's test IMO. Or maybe I don't really have any native american ancestry at all and it is just simply a fluke & correlated with my ancient Siberian admixture found throughout East Asia which I score on many Gedmatch calcs. Or the program is having a hard time separating Amerindian genetics from East Asian genetics which is somewhat similar, who knows. 23andme only gave me 0.1% NA btw

FTDNA does have me @ <2% Amerindian though ;P ...
