    Default Why do I have such a low Eastern Euro component on K15 eurogenes?

    I mean I'm 1/2 West German, 1/4 Basque French, 1/8 Spanish Galician and 1/8 South Italian(Basilicata) All of my ancestors were born on the region I'm specifying, and the only population reference that is lower than me on Eastern Euro is the South Italian one, I understand that is normal to have differences and that on the admixture certain components get lost, but the difference from taking the population reference number and dividing it by 2, 4 and 8 and then add up everything is too high, could it be that my testing company(Genera from Brazil) is not testing certain SNPs?

    Do you have any east euro ancestry? Except prussian which most likely shows as baltic.

    Your Spanish and Basque ancestries might have diluted your Eastern Euro component.

    How many SNPs were used in that calculation? Have you checked?

    If you are west german basque italian and spanish why do you expect a significant eastern euro component?

    No that I know of, all of my ancestry is what I'm stating there, anyway I'm talking about the k15 spreadsheet, considering my ancestry I should have like 5 or 6 points on Eastern Euro, the difference is too high, and I've seen some West German kits from my dad region and it's what the spreadsheet says it is.

    Not expecting something too high, I just think that from the 5/6 points I should have according to the k15 spreadsheet to the 1.75 I got, the difference is big enough to wonder why.

    I know that being 25% Basque it can dilute many components, but even Basques have higher k15 Eastern Euro component than myself.

    The labels on these components are pretty meaningless, you're not supposed to infer anything about your ancestry from them. I get less than 3% "French" on K36, but it doesn't matter. These coordinates are intended to be compared with those of other people of known ethnicity, using calculators like Vahaduo.

    In fact, the K36 map you posted here is such an example of how to correctly use the coordinates:
