Genetic variation of wolf-like canids in the 48K SNP data set. Sample size (N), average observed and expected heterozygosity (HO, HE), percent of loci that are polymorphic (P), and could not be scored (missingness, M) are shown. Except for dog (SE = 0.01), all standard errors for (HO, HE) are <0.001. A modified relationship tree (Lindblad-Toh et al. 2005) and divergence dates are presented (Perini et al. 2009). (Inset) Tree depicts admixture hypotheses with dashed lines among North American canid populations (Supplemental Table S1). Map depicts historic species distributions and admixture zone (data from Nowak 2009; Rutledge et al. 2010b).
