ancestry category
type: Class
subclass of: OBI_0000181
IAO_0000115: Population category defined using ancestry informative markers (AIMs) based on genetic/genomic data
has exact synonym: ancestral group

European
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as European, Caucasian, White or one of the sub-populations from this region (e.g Dutch). This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap CEU, FIN, GBR, IBS and TSI populations.
has exact synonym: Caucasian
has exact synonym: white

South Asian
type: Class
subclass of: Asian
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as South Asian or one of the sub-populations from this region (e.g Asian Indian). This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap BEB, GIH, ITU, PJL and STU populations.

South East Asian
type: Class
subclass of: Asian
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as South East Asian or one of the sub-populations from this region (e.g Vietnamese). This category also includes includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes KHV population. We note that East Asian and South East Asian populations are often conflated. However, recent studies indicate a unique genetic background for South East Asian populations.

Asian
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals that either self-report or have been described as Asian but there was not sufficient information to allow classification as East Asian, Central Asian, South Asian or South-East Asian.
has exact synonym: Asian unspecified

East Asian
type: Class
subclass of: Asian
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as East Asian or one of the sub-populations from this region (e.g Chinese). This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap CDX, CHB, CHS and JPT populations.

African
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals that either self-report or have been described as African, but there was not sufficient information to allow classification as African American, AfroCaribbean or Sub-Saharan African.
has exact synonym: African unspecified

Sub-Saharan African
type: Class
subclass of: African
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as SubSaharan African or one of the subpopulations from this region (e.g. Yoruban). This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap ESN, LWK, GWD, MSL, MKK and YRI populations.

Indigenous American
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
subclass of: ethnicity category
IAO_0000115: Includes indigenous individuals of North, Central and South America, descended from the original human migration into the Americas from Siberia. We note that there does not appear to be a suitable reference population for this category and efforts are required to fill this gap.
comment: Class previously labelled as "Native American". Use of this term, alongside other terms such as "First Nations", should be discontinued in favour of the more appropriate "Indigenous American", which includes indigenous communities across the Americas while the former serve as political designations in the USA and Canada, respectively.

Latin or Admixed American
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
subclass of: Restriction
  on property: hasAncestryStatus
  some values from: admixed ancestry
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or are described by authors as Hispanic, Latino, Latin American or one of the sub-populations from this region. This category includes individuals with known admixture of primarily European, African and Native American ancestries, though some may have also a degree of Asian (e.g. Peru). We also note that the levels of admixture vary depending on the country, with Caribbean countries carrying higher levels of African admixture when compared to South American countries, for example. This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap CLM, MXL, PEL and PUR populations

Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern or North African or Persian)
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who self-report or were described by authors as Middle Eastern, North African, Persian or one of the subpopulations from this region (e.g. Saudi Arabian). We note there is heterogeneity in this category with different degrees of admixture as well as levels of genetic isolation. We note that there does not appear to be a suitable reference population for this category and efforts are required to fill this gap.
has exact synonym: Middle Eastern/North African

African American or Afro-Caribbean
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
subclass of: Restriction
  on property: hasAncestryStatus
  some values from: admixed ancestry
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as African American or Afro-Caribbean. This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap ACB or ASW populations. We note that there is likely to be significant admixture with European ancestry populations.

Oceanian
type: Class
subclass of: ancestry category
IAO_0000115: Includes individuals that either self-report or have been described by authors as Oceanian or one of the sub-populations from this region (e.g. Native Hawaiian).
