Simulations showing the expected pattern of LD under various scenarios. The upper panel was generated using parameters (θ and ρ) estimated from the data. The second panel used the same parameters, but assumed an exponentially growing population. The third panel used parameters estimated from the data, but added population subdivision. The fourth panel used the same value of θ, but decreased the recombination rate by a factor of ten. The figure should be compared with Figures 5, 6, 7.
