Population structure plot (K = 19) of twenty cat breeds and two wildcat populations. faststructure was used to examine the same cat populations as described for the MDS analyses. Cat breeds with the same colors indicate admixture and shared ancestry/cross-breeding. For examples, Peterbalds are derived from Siamese and Oriental lines and several breeds have been developed from Persian lineages, such as Munchkins and Scottish Fold, to obtain brachycephalic head structure.
