Right populations to use for qpadm
#1
Does anyone have a list of good right populations to use for north west Africans, also I need samples that can differentiate Arab and Levantine ancestry thanks

What time period are you looking at for sources/left pops?

A mixture of moderns, Iron Age and medieval thanks

First in the list, your 'base' population, SouthAfrica_2000BP - I9028.SG, bab001.SG, I9133.SG, baa001.SG
Then...
Barcin_N.SG
Iran_Wezmeh_N.SG
CHG.SG
OUB002
SKH001
The copper age .SG samples from ElPortalon
The .SG versions of Afanasievo samples from site KarasukIII
Italy_GrottaContinenza_HG.SG
Whatever sort of .SG EHG samples you'd like to put together
Botai.SG
Andaman_100BP.SG
DevilsCave_N
Peru_RioUncallane_1600/1800BP

Generally it's bad practice to mix and match 1240k and. SG in BOTH the left and right, but there are no .SG Levant or Mesopotamian samples at the moment, so you may need to add some 1240k ones

Thanks this worked great I just put my base as mbuti.dg because I’m using admixtools1 results look a lot better I used natufian to represent the levant

Why are those necessary?

I'm new using qpAdm, so it's a genuine question xd

Kind of covering your basics.
Oceanian / Southern-ENA / whatever you want to call it is a major phylogenic branch: Andaman, Papuan, Australian, Onge, etc. works good to represent that.
East Asian branch = DevilsCave is probably our best high quality .SG option.
Native Americans and Botai sort of team up to flesh out ANE. MA1 is decent quality, but for stability you want the best quality you can get.

They might not always be necessary, but in more experimental models (especially involving Africa like the OP intends) it's good to have them just to help constrain deeper ancestry.

So if I want to make a model for Iberians in an Iron Age/Late Antiquity model, which right/outgroup populations would be the best?

The Left are any Iberian (Target) Iberian IA, Italy Imperial/Italy_LA (No outliers) and CanaryIslands Guanche.

Same setup would be fine, maybe throw in Chan_meso/LaBrana(.SG) if you felt like it.
