Population category defined using ancestry informative markers (AIMs) based on genetic/genomic data
ancestral group
ancestry category
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.
Caucasian
white
European
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 Asian
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.
South East Asian
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.
Asian unspecified
Asian
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.
East Asian
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.
African unspecified
African
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.
Sub-Saharan African
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.
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.
Indigenous American
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

Latin or Admixed American
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.
Middle Eastern/North African
Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern or North African or Persian)
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.
African American or Afro-Caribbean
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). We note that there does not appear to be a suitable reference population for this category and efforts are required to fill this gap.

General characterisation of the ancestry of a population or individual
ancestry status
Ancestry that is the result of cultural or geographic isolation. Generally characterised by increased genetic homogeneity and reduced genetic variation

A population made of individuals from whom samples were collected as part of a project such as the 1000 Genomes Project or the Human Genome Diversity Project (HDGP) in order to establish a comprehensive overview of human genetic diversity. Sample sizes for these reference populations vary from 1-3 to 100s of individuals but all individuals in a population will have been sampled in the same location. Each population is allocated to a continental or sub-continental superpopulation such as European or African. Subsets of samples from a reference population may have been used in multiple different analyses.

Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as Indigenous Siberan. This covers any indigenous groups from the northern part of the Asian contient that is commonly referred to as Siberia and which reaches from the Ural Mountains in the west to the Pacific Ocean in the east, and from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the northern borders of Kazakhstan, Mongolia and China in the south. We note that there does not appear to be a suitable reference population for this population and efforts are required to fill this gap, although smaller reference populations were defined by the SGDP. Principal-component analysis of samples from this population suggest a close genetic relatedness with some Indigenous North American populations, such as the Chipewyan.
