Estimated distribution of the MRCA (TMRCA) with constant population
| Gene | T̂MRCA* | T1* | T2* | T̂MRCA** | T1** | T2** |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SMCY | 0.56 | 0.40 | 0.82 | 85,000 | 61,000 | 125,000 |
| DBY | 0.83 | 0.60 | 1.10 | 154,000 | 112,000 | 206,000 |
| DFFRY | 0.96 | 0.55 | 1.21 | 120,000 | 69,000 | 152,000 |
| Three genes | 0.55 | 0.36 | 0.98 | 84,000 | 55,000 | 149,000 |
T̂MRCA* is expected age in units of Ne generations. T1* and T2* are the central 95% probability intervals for the expected age of MRCA. T̂MRCA**, T1**, and T2** are the corresponding values in years.
