Who are Kho?
Kho is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Kho 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 Kho.
What is Kho DNA closest to?
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Kho is Pashtun Shinwari. Other nearby references include Pashtun Safi, Pashtun Uthmankhel, Pashtun Tarkalani, and Pashtun Northeast Afghanistan. This gives the Kho profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.
