DNAPrint: BioGeographical Ancestry (BGA) Test Results for James Eldon Franklin

(www.roperld.com)

The BGA test determines the probable fractions of one's ancestry that are Indo-European (European, Middle Eastern and South Asian), Native American (South and North American), sub-Saharan African (all African countries but Algeria, Chad, Egypt, Morocco, Sudan and Tunisia) and East Asian (Japanese, Chinese, Korean and South Pacific).

James Eldon Franklin's results:
Ancestry Estimate
Indo-European 90%
East-Asian 0%
Native-American 10%

The first contour (black line) around your BGA result delimits the space outside of which the points are 2 times less likely, and the second contour (blue line) delimits the space outside of which the estimates are 5 times less likely. The third contour (yellow line) delimits the space outside of which the estimates are 10 times less likely than your result.
Jim Franklin's comments about this result: "I am sure supprised to say the least on the 10 % Native American. There has been talk of it in our family but I never found any connection."
A Genotype is the actual building block at one location on your DNA. For instance if, at a certain location, you inherited an 'A' from your mother and a 'C' from your father, your genotype would be 'AC' for that location. (The DNAPrint results do not distinguish paternal-maternal order; i.e., it could be AC or CA.) There are approximately 3,000,000,000 building blocks (base pairs) in the human genome, however only 0.1% of these building blocks are variable from person to person. The BGA test measures the specific genotype at 70 highly informative deep ancestral locations. Genotypes:

Note that Jim has an extra location (#963) compared to my and my wife's results. There is some slight variation from run to run on how well the analysis works. Because of this sometimes a marker is judged failed during the quality control step. Note that location #1139 is marked FL=failed. Omitted and FL markers are not used in the percentage calculation.
