Note: For each computationally phased genome in each population, we estimated the probability of Neandertal ancestry at each SNP and the fraction of autosomal and X-chromosome SNPs that are confidently Neandertal in each individual (marginal probability > 90%). The table reports the average and standard deviation of this measure across individuals within each population.
