Figure 2. Probability That a Hotspot is Shared between Human and Chimpanzee.

Figure 2

Contour lines show the probability of sharing a hotspot between human and chimpanzee, as a function of the scaled drive 8N e r H(1/2 − p) against the hotspot, and the number of sites capable of disrupting the hotspot, assuming effective population size N e = 10,000.

Each line refers to a different probability of sharing. The vertical lines correspond to our estimates of likely drive parameters for four known human hotspots, DNA1–3 and NID1. See text for further details.
