Table 4.

Estimated Nem for An. gambiae spp. chromosomal forms and An. arabiensis

Estimates from RST
X chromosome Chromosome 2 Chromosome 3 All
Bamako vs. Mopti 3.4 10.3
Bamako vs. arabiensis 0.23 1.8  1.5 1.1
Mopti vs. arabiensis 0.19 1.4  1.8 1.2
Estimates from FST

X chromosome Chromosome 2 Chromosome 3 All

Bamako vs. Mopti 3.3 20.3 5.8
Bamako vs. arabiensis 0.97 1.2  1.7 1.2
Mopti vs. arabiensis 0.98 1.7  1.3 1.3

Results are presented for loci grouped by chromosome and averaged over all loci. The values shown for “Bamako vs. Mopti” are the mean of that value over the Selinkenyi and Banambani subpopulations. For gene flow with An. arabiensis only values from the Banambani subpopulation could be calculated. Values of Nem for the X chromosome are predicated on the assumption that Ne of the X chromosome is two-thirds that for the autosomes.
