a, A statistical summary of genetic data from 1,387 Europeans based on principal component axis one (PC1) and axis two (PC2). Small coloured labels represent individuals and large coloured points represent median PC1 and PC2 values for each country. The inset map provides a key to the labels. The PC axes are rotated to emphasize the similarity to the geographic map of Europe.
