A focused population profile of Sardinian, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Sardinian is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Sardinian 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 Sardinian.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Sardinian is Sardinian North. Other nearby references include Sardinian Benetutti, Sardinian Sulcis-Iglesiente, Corsican, and Corsican Corse-du-Sud. This gives the Sardinian profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Sardinian 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 Sardinian profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Sardinian average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Sardinian North. Other nearby references include Sardinian Benetutti, Sardinian Sulcis-Iglesiente, Corsican, and Corsican Corse-du-Sud.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Sardinian North is the closest listed match to the Sardinian average after removing Sardinian itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Sardinian G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
