I realized that the CODIS & DNA Tribes stuff might not belong in Articles & Interesting Links. I did receive a response from my 2nd email to DNA Tribes about Gram's results. They believe that it's a combination of the admixture and not having matching samples in their database at this time. It really pays to ask questions as they have offered me 2 free upgrades as their database grows

Tribes Results
Hi Greg,
If you check in the DNA & Genealogy Forum there are a few of us who are "playing" with putting markers into a few programs, Omnipop & the RCMP Database to see if we can learn anymore (a debatable, but fun process). By looking at the values of the alleles for Gram's results I think I figured out which was from each parent based on how she described her parents. The values of the markers on the one allele is really unusual (her mom). The other has a greater alignment toward African, mix them together and Gram's marker values come out with the East Indian results

Allele Frequencies
Greg,
If you can download the Omnipop, the first sheet is the main page & you can put the alleles in individually. The second sheet is the data page & it shows frequencies of the alleles among the 179 populations the program has in its database. You still end up with outrageous numbers, but I guess that's what makes the CODIS markers so unique & useful for forensic work.

Hi Sonia,
I have downloaded Omnipop from the following:
The results from DNAtrobes seem to be better. However, Omnipop is more flexible. I can look at the data that I want to with Omnipop. The only way that I can get new results from DNAtribes is to order an update for about $30. I am going to look at Omnipop in detail when I have time. Examining the maps given by DNAtribes. I find good agreement with my surname research. I live in Northeastern United States. They put me in the northern part of that region while I live in the southern part. This maybe due to the ancient Native American markers which are often put in Canada or Mexico depending on which markers are left out. My Old World tribal affiliation on my father's side and surname has always suggested a connection between Silesia and Perth. Historically, this is associated with the Volkerwanderwung.
By the 3rd century AD various German tribal confederations, all of whom will leave a lasting mark on European history, are ranged along the natural borders of the Roman empire. They have settled in the territories east of the Rhine and north of the Danube and Black Sea. From here, in the great upheavals of the 4th and 5th century (known as the Völkerwanderung, 'migration of the peoples'), they will move throughout [Western] Europe.

I snipped off part of your post. Tribes changed the way they report results a little bit since my August results. You have 2 values listed next to each area, what do they signify? Gram's results only showed one value, but I haven't noticed that they added any additional data for their African and Near Eastern Region so I'm holding off on an upgrade. Gram's ABD2.5 was 82% Sub-Saharan African & 18% European. While her DNA Tribes scores for World Region listed Sub-Saharan Africa first, the value was less than 0.45.
It's great you have the genealogical and historical paper trails to compare to your results!

I work with Omnipop, and it is clear that there is some racial profiling done. There results are more like ABDNA 2.5. Also, my most likely groups were different than DNA tribes.

There are many programs you can use for your mtDNA and Y-DNA. To use Omnipop, you use your CODIS markers.
You get your CODIS markers from your DNATribes results. First put in all of your markers and record the top 30 populations. They are the lowest non-zero numbers. Then test each allele for each Locus. Each allele comes from either your mother or your father. For each locus, one will come from your mother and one will come from your father. The US data was basically for police work. And race is separated into several groups. For example, they do not look at Afro-American or Asian American as an admixture. All Afro-Americans are not from a recent African Diaspora. Each allele will give a result. If both alleles for a locus are the same, then the results you get for the pair will be the same as the results for the single allele. Remember that you are obtaining population data when you do this. It is not your data. Some allele values are constant for a population while others represent a migration from point A to Point B or a wandering. While others might be random . . . As you might have read in the paper, the CODIS was carefully chosen to represent population data which could be used to identify individuals just like AMEL will tell if the person is a male, XY or a female, XX. The total CODIS profile is typical of a population also.
example. Father AB Mother CD
Child AC or AD or BC or BD
Just think why there is a 50% of boy or girl
XY XX
XX
XX
YX
YX
There are 13 CODIS autosomes and different populations mix just like boy and girl

Pretty darn good explanation, Greg!

Deep Clade E Test
Dear Dra. Ana and Greg,
I received an email indicating there is a Deep Clade E test now available which I ordered this weekend. IHopefully, a sub-clade will be discovered. I will let you know when the results are available. Hope all is well with everyone in the group. We out here in California survived last year's fires and we replaced our avocado grove with a vineyard. Our vines are growing very rapidly. Our fingers are crossed for a successful crop.

That is interesting Denise . . . not only has some interesting research been done with hg E, there has been some exciting results for mt hg A. So, I ordered my father's full mtDNA to be done. It is mt hg A so far without the 16111 mutatation for the HVR-I region. One match so far is A2a. His family is from Virgina. I cannot wait to find out the results. I am still a little puzzled about my mt-DNA full scan I did two years ago. We now know all the mutations happen in some other mt DNA. Neverthelesss, no exact matches yet. I did my deep Y-DNA test, and it came back, R-U106. Well, My grandfather's name was Egbert Adolph Haynes which matches his DNA. There is still a lot more work which needs to be done, and another sub-clade to be founded.
I hope the crops come out ok for you.
