Fig. 3.

Frequency distribution of pairwise mutational differences obtained by mismatch analysis with mtDNA hypervariable region I sequences. We analyzed each lineage separately, and we also grouped all populations together. The bar chart indicates the observed values, and the red curve is the model fitted to the data. The yellow and green lines represent the 5% and 95% percentile values. The numbers of nucleotide differences are indicated on the x axis, and their frequencies are indicated on the y axis. AC represent the three Algerian lineages, D includes all Moroccan populations, and E groups all populations from both Algeria and Morocco together. Note that one of the mutations between haplotypes of Djurdjura is an insertion.
