Figure 5. Anti-bacterial host defence related genes.

Figure 5

Sampling distribution of the sample mean pairwise FST between populations. All pairwise comparisons, except COP vs. NOR, have an average FST value of anti-bacterial host defence related genes (♦) that is significantly lower than the mean FST score of the sampling distribution. COP = Copts; NOR = Beja, Ethiopians, Arabs and Nubians; SOU = Darfurians, Nuba and Nilotes; FUL = Fulani. The sampling distribution is drawn from the mean FST value of subsets of randomly selected genic SNPs with a sample size equal to the number of common SNPs between populations in the selected genes (n) and with similar MAF (10,000 permutations).
