[i] SNPs found among all of the polymorphisms identified in the overlap.

[ii] SNPs analyzed by determining their frequencies in the population pools, after discarding from consideration polymorphisms found in repetitive regions. The number of STSs and base pairs scanned in the process of analyzing the SNPs are also listed.

[iii] Number of SNPs (and the proportion among the SNPs analyzed) with allele frequencies of >20% for the minor allele are categorized according to the individual populations studied and the number of populations in which these informative SNPs are found.
