Gene expression data sets explored in the present study for the inference of ancestry. (A) The map shows the geographic location of the 25 RNA-seq data sets that were initially recruited from GEO; the correspondence between these ID codes and the GEO accession numbers, and the characteristics of the data sets are provided in Supplemental Table S1. (B) Only eight out of these 25 data sets passed all the quality filters, and these were used for the subsequent studies. The histogram shows the number of shared SNPs (the final set after applying all the filters) between data sets (see Supplemental Table S1 for more information). (C) Distribution of SNPs in chromosomes for the eight data sets used to infer the ancestry of donors (their GEO ID code is indicated; Supplemental Table S1).
