PCA plot showing CNV population structure in our data compared to 1000 Genomes. The PCA distinguishes major continental populations from each other, but is not able to resolve specific populations within the continental populations. Africans in the 1000 Genomes (AFR) are closer to our data (TGN). Conventions for major continental populations are described by the 1000 genomes project [8, 23]. b PCA plot showing population structure for bi-allelic deletion CNV. Phase information is non-ambiguous for bi-allelic deletions. The Africans in the 1000 Genomes overlay the TrypanoGEN African samples, indicating similar CNV in the datasets. c PCA plot showing population structure due to bi-allelic insertion CNV. There was no specific pattern observed as fewer bi-allelic insertions were available in the data
