Table 1. The relative bias, coverage, and calibration of estimating N_e, r, M by the SCAR model.

Parameter	Relative error	Coverage	Calibration
N e	+1.23%	92 in 100 times	0.98
r	+1.87%	97 in 100 times	0.98
M	+22.36%	95 in 100 times	0.85

Except for the parameter being systematically varied, all parameters were fixed at constant values: effective population sizes Ne = 1.0, sample sizes k = 100, genome length L = 10000, recombination rate r = 0.0, migration rate M = 0. For models with migration, migration rates are assumed to be symmetric between two subpopulations
