Numbers of loci simulated under balancing selection, neutrality, and directional selection that were classified in each category by the reparameterized Bayesian regression analysis including variable selection are shown. A locus was classified as subject to selection if Pi = 1 | data) ≥ 0.17 and otherwise was classified as neutral. For nonneutral loci the corresponding Fst-value was used to decide whether the locus is subject to directional or balancing selection.
