B4a1a1 and B4a1a1a are defined by the “pre-motif” and the Polynesian motif, respectively. Estimates with associated 95% confidence limits are shown for Indonesia, the Bismarck Archipelago, and the overall data set via maximum likelihood (complete genomes) and ρ for three different molecular clocks, two of them with independent sources of variation (control region and synonymous clocks).
