Explanation of Statistics

Statistic Samples Allele Conditions Pattern
D 1 sample each from p1,p2,p3, O p1!=p2,p3=B,O=A ABBA or BABA
dcfs 1 sample each from p1,p3,O p1=A, p2=B, p3=B, O=A ABBA
n samples from p2
SFS 1 sample each from p3,O O=A, f(p2=B)>0 -BBA
n samples from p2
LD 1 sample each from p3,O p3=B,O=A, f(p2||3=B)0.1 -BBA or B-BA
n samples each from p1orp2

SFS is the unconditional spectrum. p1,p2 are the two present day populations, p3 is the archaic population, O is denoted the outgroup. Alleles “A” and “B” are the ancestral (state at O) and derived alleles, respectively.
