Qatari subpopulation structure and exome major alleles. A. Plot showing the results of a STRUCTURE analysis used for the selection of the 100 Qatari in the study (Pritchard et al., 2000). Each individual was genotyped for 48 SNPs by TaqMan where this panel was designed to quantify the proportion of Bedouin (Q1), Persian-South Asian (Q2), and African (Q3) ancestry in a Qatari individual. Each pair of columns represents the proportion of Red = Q1, Green = Q2, Blue = Q3 ancestry for an individual. All individuals in the study had >70% ancestry in one of Q1, Q2 or Q3 population clusters. B. A Venn diagram showing the overlap between three sets of Bedouin (Q1), Persian-South Asian (Q2), and African (Q3) subpopulation major allele alternate variants (total 14,192 variants). For each subpopulation, the number of sites where the alternate allele is the major allele was counted, and the list of major alternate allele sites was compared between subpopulations.
