(a) Population mean principal component 1 (PC1) versus PC2 of 197 146 loci from 1387 individuals across Europe from Novembre et al. [20] including only those overlapping populations used in Chiao & Blizinsky [1]. Genetic structure clearly mirrors geography. (b) Association of 5-HTTLPR allele frequency with individualism–collectivism in the European subgroup from Chiao and Blizinsky (r(14) = 0.32). If Turkey is dropped from the analysis, the relationship switches direction (r(13) = −0.18). (c) PC1 (from figure 1a) has a strong association with 5-HTTLPR allele frequency (r(14) = −0.81). The relationship remains strong without Turkey (r(13) = −0.76).
