Genomic structures of 26 populations in five continents were explored using principal component analysis, hierarchical clustering analysis, and homozygosity disequilibrium analysis. Within each of the six study ancestry groups (whole-continents, AFR, AMR, EAS, EUR, and SAS), AIMs were identified based on each of four genetic variation categories using two-sided Fisher exact tests. Ancestry-informative PGx were identified and an enrichment of AIMs in PGx loci was evaluated using one-sided Fisher exact tests. Finally, a genetic ancestry PGx database was constructed.
