According to y-chromosomal studies, Turks of Turkey, Azeris and Iraqi Turkmens are mostly descendants western Asian populations. This was also the case as for samples from more rural communities in central Anatolia described by Gokcumen et al. 2011.

"at K= 4 the genetic ancestry of the Turks was 38% European (95% CI, 35–42), 35% Middle Eastern (95% CI, 33–38), 18% South Asian (95% CI, 16–19) and 9% Central Asian (95% CI, 7–11)"
