We know life, death and miracles, genetically speaking, for Southern Italians; but what about Northern Italians? Any guess about the best Gedmatch calculator to better define their (ancient and modern) genetic make-up?

Eurogenes k13 and k15 I think.

Eurogenes k13 and k15 are good. I agree with Alessio.

Because I remember that Polako said something like "Eurogenes calculators don't fit well with people south of the Alps", but probably he was referring to older calculators.

Should be one that has more populations near North Italians. So far i think only MDLP have those, but i don't think it's as good as Eurogenes or Dodecad.

To me EUTest or K15 or K13 are good. So are some Dodecad calculators.

With MDLP Corsicans seem something like 80% North Italian and 20% Sardinians. I don't think it's accurate: Corsicans are, for sure, more Tuscan than North Italian.

I agree it's not accurate but it has samples from Friul, Provence and Swiss. The other calculators don't have many samples geographically near North Italians.
