PopSize: population size according to the most recent estimate in Riggio et al. (2012) for the African populations, except for Zambia: Paula White (personal communication); estimate for the Indian population from [56]

N msat: number of sampled individuals for microsatellite analysis

N mtDNA: number of sampled individuals for mtDNA analysis.

* mtDNA and microsatellite data are not from the same samples.
