A focused population profile of Burusho, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Burusho is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Burusho with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Burusho.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Burusho is Kohistani. Other nearby references include Khas Brahmin Nepal, Kashmiri Muslim Srinagar, Kashmiri Muslim, and Kashmiri Pandit. This gives the Burusho profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Burusho average. It should be read as a model of deep ancestry components, while the closest-match table is the better guide to which modern populations are most similar in G25 space.
The heatmap gives the Burusho profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Burusho average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Kohistani. Other nearby references include Khas Brahmin Nepal, Kashmiri Muslim Srinagar, Kashmiri Muslim, and Kashmiri Pandit.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Kohistani is the closest listed match to the Burusho average after removing Burusho itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Burusho G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
