Estimated demographic parameters with IMa2

HiPt HPD 95%

We assumed a mutation rate (u) of 0.0005 and a mean generation time (g) of 3.5 years (2 years for surface fish and 5 years for cavefish). HiPt: the highest value in the histogram of the posterior marginal density. HPD 95%: the lower and upper bound of the estimated 95% highest posterior density (HPD) interval. Effective population size (Ne) Pachón = q0 / 4u; Ne surface = q1 / 4u; Ne ancestral = q2 / 4u; t (divergence time in years) = t0 x g / u; mS- > P (migration rate from surface to Pachón) = m0 > 1 x u; mP- > S (migration rate from Pachón to surface) = m1 > 0 x u. m0 > 1 and m1 > 0 are migration rate backward in time, whereas mS- > P and mP- > S are migration rate forward in time
