Each individual is represented by a vertical (100%) stacked column of genetic components proportions shown in colour for K = 8. The Jewish communities are labelled in colour and bold. T and B further specify Sephardi Jews from Turkey and Bulgaria, respectively. Populations introduced for the first time in this study and analysed together with the Human Genome Diversity Panel18 data are marked with an asterisk.
