Figure 5. Lowest admixture f3-statistics of the form f3 (X, Y; Yamnaya).

Figure 5

These statistics represent the Yamnaya as a mix of two populations with a more negative result signifying the more likely admixture event. (a). All negative statistics found for the test f3(X, Y; Yamnaya) with the most negative result f3(CHG, EHG; Yamnaya) highlighted in purple. Lines bisecting the points show the standard error. (b). The most significantly negative statistics which are highlighted by the yellow box in a. Greatest support is found for Yamnaya being a mix of Caucasus hunter-gatherers (CHG) and Russian hunter-gatherers who belong to an eastern extension of the WHG clade (EHG).
