A focused population profile of Assiniboine European-mixed references, their Northern Plains Indigenous and European-admixed background, closest modern genetic matches, ancestry model, and World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Assiniboine European-mixed is a World Genetics reference for Assiniboine/Nakoda-related ancestry combined with European-related ancestry. It should be read as a mixed-profile genetic reference, not as a separate ethnicity from Assiniboine people.
Nakoda/Assiniboine is the traditional language, while English is widely used today. European admixture can make different Indigenous North American mixed profiles overlap more closely in G25 space.
As a genetic reference, Assiniboine European-mixed is useful for comparison with Cree European-mixed, Ottawa European-mixed, Ojibwe European-mixed, Algonquin European-mixed, Seminole European-mixed, Creek European-mixed, Crow European-mixed, Paiute-Shoshone European-mixed, Tsimshian European-mixed, and Yellowknife European-mixed.
In the World Genetics modern G25 table, Assiniboine with a European-mixed profile is closest to Cree European-mixed, Ottawa European-mixed, Ojibwe European-mixed, Algonquin European-mixed, Seminole European-mixed, Creek European-mixed, Crow European-mixed, Paiute-Shoshone European-mixed, Tsimshian European-mixed, and Yellowknife European-mixed. The result reflects Native American and European-related mixed-profile similarity.

The ancestry breakdown gives deeper component proportions, while closest matches show modern similarity. Assiniboine European-mixed is best interpreted as an Indigenous North American plus European-related profile, close to other First Nations and Native American European-mixed references.
The heatmap should emphasize the Northern Plains, Canada, the Great Lakes, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, Subarctic regions, and Indigenous European-mixed comparison zones.
No. This reference includes both Assiniboine/Indigenous North American-related ancestry and European-related ancestry.
Different Indigenous North American European-mixed references can overlap when Native American and European-related ancestry proportions are similar.
Yes. The unmixed and European-mixed pages help separate Indigenous-specific similarity from mixed-profile similarity.
