Genealogical Estimation of Variant Age (GEVA)

Inference of the ancestral origin of a genetic variant at a single locus

rs161259

Alleles:

reference

derived

alternate

ancestral

Age estimated for the alternate allele, assuming that it was derived from the reference allele as the ancestral state.

! Estimation of allele age was conducted under the assumption that the alternate allele is the derived allele.
However, there is evidence indicating that the alternate allele is not the derived one.
It is therefore suggested that the results shown on this page may not be valid.

This feature is experimental! It is only provided to illustrate plausible variations in time scales. Note that pairwise TMRCA and allele age were estimated on the basis of shared haplotype segments that were previously inferred using a hidden Markov model (HMM), for which the default parameters were used. Any changes made here will only affect the scaling of TMRCA, but not allele age, which is displayed without change.

TMRCA	Time to the most recent common ancestor; inferred from genetic information observed locally (around the focal genomic position) at the haplotype segment shared between a pair of genomes.
Allele age	Time of the mutation event that gave rise to the focal allele; estimated from the distributions of pairwise TMRCA inferred for concordant and discordant pairs.
Concordant pair	A pair of haplotypes (i.e. genomes) which both carry the focal allele. Concordant pairs are expected to share a most recent common ancestor more recently than the time of the focal mutation event.
Discordant pair	A pair of haplotypes (i.e. genomes) where one carries the focal allele and the other does not. Discordant pairs are expected to share a most recent common ancestor further back in time than the time of the focal mutation event.
