Scenario of the settlement of New Guinea. (A) Best fitting qpGraph model for populations from New Guinean southeast lowlands (New Guinea subgroup 16, following fig. 1C and defined in supplementary table 2, Supplementary Material online), north lowlands (New Guinea subgroup 28), south lowlands (New Guinea subgroup 39), east highlands (New Guinea subgroup 45), west highlands (New Guinea subgroup 55), and Africa (Africa_5) (Z score = 2.759). Solid arrows are labeled with branch lengths in 1,000 times drift units. Dotted arrows indicate gene flows whose proportions are indicated by percentages. (B) Relative cross-coalescence rate curves estimated by MSMC2 between populations from New Guinean lowlands and highlands.
