124,106	“Yoruba SNPs”: All SNPs in “Panel 5” of the Affymetrix Human Origins array (discovered as heterozygous in a Yoruba male: HGDP00927)12 that passed the probe design criteria specified in ref. 11.
146,135	“San SNPs”: All SNPs in “Panel 4” of the Affymetrix Human Origins array (discovered as heterozygous in a San male: HGDP01029)12 that passed probe design criteria11. The full Affymetrix Human Origins array Panel 4 contains several tens of thousands of additional SNPs overlapping those from Panel 5, but we did not wish to redundantly capture Panel 5 SNPs.
98,166	“Compatibility SNPs”: SNPs that overlap between the Affymetrix Human Origins the Affymetrix 6.0, and the Illumina 610 Quad arrays, which are not already included in the “Yoruba SNPs” or “San SNPs” lists12 and that also passed the probe design design criteria11.
26,170	“Miscellaneous SNPs”: SNPs that did not overlap the Human Origins array. The subset analyzed in this study were 2,258 Y chromosome SNPs (http://isogg.org/tree/ISOGG_YDNA_SNP_Index.html) that we used for Y haplogroup determination.
