The number of polymorphic sites and π are obtained from the sequence alignment that exclude gaps and a chromosome sample of up to 10 sequences (see text). Synonymous sites of the csd coding sequence were used for calculations at Ex2/3, Ex4/5, and Ex6/7 and distances are calculated from the 3′-end of csd. Recombination rates for loci linked to SDL are based on mapping data (see Figure 1). For loci unlinked to SDL, recombination rates were estimated in 125-kb windows by a genomewide analysis of the honeybee sequence assembly 2.1. Putatively neutral loci were chosen on the basis of the region corresponding to those windows in the annotated genome.
