τ is the moment estimator of the age of the expansion; θ0 and θ1 are the mutation parameters before and after the expansion respectively; SSD is the test of the validity of a stepwise expansion model based on the sum of square deviations between the observed and the expected mismatch, and the significance of the test is estimated with a parametric bootstrap approach, and the same method is used to test the significance of the Raggedness index (probability values: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001, ns = non-significant).
