Image: European genetic structure (based on SNPs) PC analysis

Description: The European genetic structure (based on 273,464 SNPs). Three levels of structure as revealed by PC analysis are shown: A) inter-continental; B) intra-continental; and C) inside a single country (Estonia), where median values of the PC1&2 are shown. D) European map illustrating the origin of sample and population size. CEU - Utah residents with ancestry from Northern and Western Europe, CHB – Han Chinese from Beijing, JPT - Japanese from Tokyo, and YRI - Yoruba from Ibadan, Nigeria.
