[QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [QB] Ignoring the entertainment above, brother doesn’t realize he agrees with me, anyways, and while we wait on Beyoku to get back to us. Let me continue.… From Kivilsld [[[In a recent study, Behar and colleagues explored the genome-wide diversity of the Jewish Diaspora with regard to that of their host populations, as well as the Middle East [45]. In their supplemental figure four, results of analyses undertaken with the software ADMIXTURE are shown, and [b]specifically at K=10,[/b] an [b]ancestry component depicted in deep purple colour appears[/b]. Interestingly, its proportion is particularly [b]high amongst Mozabite Berbers, [/b]who have very high frequencies of M1 and U6 [12]. This deep purple colour is also present at a fairly high frequency amongst Moroccans, and to a lesser extent amongst Ethiopians, both Jewish and non-Jewish, and Egyptians.[b] Its proportion in the Near Eastern populations is by far smaller than in the African ones[/b]]]] From Behar, cited by Kivilsld(supplemtal fig 4 is what was posted. [[[light green component among the latter, while dominant in the Middle Eastern and Indus Valley population It is noteworthy that [b]this component is virtually absent among the two West European genetic outlier populations - in the French Basque and Sardinians[/b]. On the other hand, Moroccan Jews differ from their host population (Moroccan Berbers and Arabs) not only because of the presence of the dominant sub-Saharan African component in the latter, [b]but also because the host populations (e.g., Mozabites) lack the light green component.[/b] Moreover, when at K=10 the Moroccans [b]acquire a substantial share of the novel dark violet component,[/b] then in the Moroccan Jewish]]] From Henn [[[[On the Levant. It is interesting to note that this ancestry is not represented in European individuals. Jewish ancestry appears to be less than 2% or absent in most populations, with the exception of one Swiss Italian. At k=6, a component corresponding largely to North Africa appears, except for the[b] Tunisians who are ~100% assigned to their own component, [/b]likely due to strong endogamy (5). The differentiation of Tunisians reduces the genetic similarity between Near Easterners and North Africans when comparing their ancestry assignments at k=5 and k=6. The Basques have the lowest proportion, only 4% is assigned North African ancestry]]]] [IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/k1p17a.jpg[/IMG] To those who can follow. The color code may be confusing eg in Behar study Europeans are Dark Blue. Henn uses a different color code. You need to read the study and/or supplementals to know what the color represents. Notice in Henn’s Europeans are not Dark Blue. Beyoku am I on the wrong path? Both Henn and Behar observed “unique/novel” markers in their independent studies. Maybe Tunisians and Mazabs are the same. Someone can help me out here? I am just going by the charts. [/QB][/QUOTE]
