Classify mexican with ftdna results.

[Leto]

Leto. According to Gedrosia K3 my west eurasian component is 81.12. From ancestry perspective LivingDNA is giving me 82.6 European.

Gedrosia is crap IMO. What are your Dodecad World9 results?

Ohh I did not know.
here is the Dodecad World9. West eurasian here is 49.34 + 23.32 + 6.58 = 79.24

Thanks. So you are roughly 80% European. I wouldn't have guessed you are ~20% non-white but then again, it's no secret the Amerindian is often invisible in smaller amounts (10-20%).

[gadele]

right. I guess it will depend on what genes are passed on. Some of them do not express at all and some after some time. For example I was born with blond hair and it turned dark brown when I was a teenager, on the other hand my eyes were dark when kid and turned hazel when teenager until now. Genes are there expressing and blocking themselves mysteriously. Epic-genetics is trying to understand how the environment (food, place where we live, peoples around us etc) influences the gene expression.

You look white to me, could be a full Italian or something else. What is your total Caucasoid percentage?

There is something odd. Her phenotype still looks latino to me even though she is less amerindian than me. Maybe the MENA component gives more strength to Ameridian comp that makes it to pop up.

My personal opinion? Many mexicans look more amerindian than what truly they are also when it comes to classifying latinos is a joke phenotype can't always match genotype specially since mixing of races has been happening since centuries.

I think there are two main reason when physical trait phenotype and genotype seem to be in discrepancy. 1) We are considering only the overall percentage of matches against a "sample" of that ethnicity but the distribution of those matches by chromosome is different between individuals. Some chromosomes contain more genes related to visible traits than others so we get different percentages from the average on those chromosomes. 2) Companies are analyzing all possible genes that differentiate human beings from other species (through SNPs actually just a maker of those genes) and not necessarily the SNPs related to physical traits. Hopefully in the future with much more information we will get an average as today and and average for physical traits (visible phenotype).

[Duffmannn]

Nope.

I doubt she is 87% caucasoid anyways.

It could be the10% MENA admixture. ¿Jew or lebanese provenience?

[Duffmannn]

Some iberians have also sephardic background without knowing it. Crypto-jews that lost their "identity" like you can see also in Italy.

Well there are even jews that have sephardic identity despite 500 years of persecution, they are not crypto and everyone knows who they are.

For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xueta

Many powerful politicians in Spain nowadays are crypto-jews with hidden identity.

Well dna don't lie . I also have plenty of mexicans from family tree dna despite looking very mestizo are over 75% euro caucasian/mena etc


Her 10% mena admixture is probably Sephardic jew origin

Yes the same in Italy. Rita Levi Montalcini for example. Primo Levi as well.
