Contrasting levels of divergence and diversification between the Y chromosomes and the PAR. All analyses are plotted in intervals of 100 kb and a sliding window of 25 kb. (A) Nucleotide diversity (π) within the wild male (MSY) and cultivated hermaphrodite (HSY) groups. (B) Tajima's D-values within the males and hermaphrodites. Values near zero are consistent with a population at equilibrium under neutral evolution (i.e., without a recent bottleneck or expansion, and without strong selection).
