Figure 2

Summary of common ancestry profiles for 52 human populations. Mean genetic distance ( d ^ x y ) among individuals within each of 52 human populations of the CEPH-HGDP panel, with range indicated by the 5th to 95th percentiles. Genetic distance of individuals x and y reflects the probability that two short tandem repeat alleles drawn, one from x and one from y at a particular locus, differ in state. The horizontal dotted line indicates average genetic distance (0.74) for all within-population comparisons.
