Abstract

Two different insertion/deletion (indel) multiplexes have been used to analyse a subset of the CEPH Human Genome Diversity Panel as well as several additional populations collected locally in order to compare the effectiveness of the marker sets in differentiating the populations on a continental level. We show that both marker sets by themselves are able to achieve full continental population differentiation and combining all 67 markers leads to considerably higher accuracy of classification. While differentiation of the European and Middle Eastern population groups remains impossible, surprisingly high accuracy is achieved in assigning Central South Asian samples.
