Common ancestry profiles for two individuals, based on genotype data for 377 short tandem repeat (STR) loci[4]. Distribution of genetic distance estimates for all possible pairs drawn from 1,013 individuals of the CEPH-HGDP STR dataset (overall) and for all pairs including individual Pima1043 or French 516. (a) Pima 1043 vs all other individuals; (b) French 516 vs all other individuals; (c) Pima 1043 vs three sets of individuals: other Pima, other non-Pima Americans and all non-Americans of CEPH-HGDP set; (d) French 516 vs three sets of individuals: other French, non-French Europeans and non-Europeans. Genetic distance for a pair of individuals is defined as the probability with which two alleles, one drawn randomly from each of the two individuals, differ in state, averaged across loci. Forty-three individuals (13 duplicates and 30 close relatives) excluded from original Rosenberg dataset [4].
