Two mutation models were used the stepwise mutation model (SMM) and the two-phase mutation model (TPM; using 90% SMM). Wilcoxon signed ranked tests for heterozygous excess (one tailed Hx) and heterozygous deficiency (one tailed Hd), a sign test and the Mode-shift test for bottleneck detection. Significant p-values are in bold and have been adjusted using the Bonferroni correction (p-value = 0.003).
