Abstract

A genomewide admixture mapping (AM) panel for Hispanic/Latino populations is described. The AM panel has 2,120 ancestry markers and the main criteria for marker selection were both high information content for Native American/European ancestry and small frequency differences between the Mesoamerican and South American samples.
