Figure 1. Relationships between minor parent ancestry and recombination rates.

Figure 1

(A) In the presence of hybrid incompatibilities, minor parent ancestry is more likely to persist in regions of high recombination. (B) Shown is one, randomly-chosen replicate of simulations under plausible parameters for swordtail species (21). (C) Relationship between minor parent ancestry and recombination rate in swordtails and (D) in humans (see Fig. S8). Data are summarized in 50 kb windows in swordtail analyses and 250 kb in humans, so that the number of windows is similar. (E) Spearman’s correlations between average minor parent ancestry and recombination rate at several scales; see Table S2 for complete results and 25 for details of the Denisovan analysis. In B–D, red points and whiskers indicate the mean with two standard errors of the mean determined by bootstrapping; gray points show raw data. Quantile binning is for visualization; statistical tests were performed on the unbinned data.
