Text

Yorgov et al. [2013] used global ancestry proportions for chromosome 3 to evaluate local ancestry estimates produced over the set of all genotype individuals in GAW18. Proportional Native American, European, and African ancestries were reported to have means of 45%, 49%, and 6%, respectively, for chromosome 3, comparable to the global estimates from the supervised analysis using all odd autosomes given above.
