Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (ρ) between estimates of B and π_sil (P<1×10⁻¹² for all cases). Also shown, ρ between local crossover rates (c; cM/Mb) and π_sil (P<1×10⁻¹²). Results shown based on the analysis of non-overlapping 100-kb autosomal regions.

^aValues in parenthesis indicate the highest ρ between B and π_sil along a single chromosome arm.
