  • a Combining the 10 loci surveyed here and 106 loci surveyed in Glinka et al. (2003).

  • b Average π per locus across loci, the average number of sites surveyed is 477 base pairs.

  • c Mean of the observed values. Var(D): the variance of D; Var(H): the variance of H; #IL: the number of invariant loci out of 115 surveyed.

  • d Mean simulated values are given for π, HKA χ2 and #IL; the mean of mean simulated values are given for Tajima's D, Var(D), and Fay and Wu's H, and Var(H). P-values of the observed means under the model simulated are given in parentheses. See Methods for descriptions of the models. SNM: the standard neutral model, mean Θ = 5.43. BN1: a bottleneck started 0.12Ne generations ago (duration = 0.106Ne generations, between ∼4000 and 30,000 years ago; f = 0.05; mean Θ = 5.43); BN2: a bottleneck started 0.192Ne generations ago (duration = 0.112Ne generations, between ∼20,000 and 50,000 years ago; f = 0.05; mean Θ = 5.43); BN3: a bottleneck started 0.06Ne generations ago (duration = 0.000021Ne generations, about 16,000 years ago; f = 0.00001; mean Θ = 5.43); HH: recurrent hitchhiking (Ne = 2.5 million; s = 0.005; λ = 0.000052; mean Θ = 5.43). P-values are based on 1000 replicates for models HH and 10,000 replicates for the models SNM, BN1, BN2, and BN3. p/Θ = 7 for all models. (n.d.): the HKA test was not performed for the hitchhiking model.

  • e P = 0.060 under a finite-sites model (see Supplemental Results).
