Number of chromosomes sampled after predicted recombinants were omitted (see the “Subjects and Methods” section).

b

ML estimate of nucleotide variability per locus from the GENETREE analysis.

c

Effective population size derived from θML and μ=9×10-5/locus/generation (see the “Results” section).
