Matrilineal Fertility Inheritance Detected in Hunter–Gatherer Populations Using the Imbalance of Gene Genealogies
Figure 1
The Effect of Fertility Inheritance on the Balance Measure Mean I′
For each value of the fertility inheritance parameter α, 100 coalescent trees with 100 individuals were simulated. The extremities of the boxes correspond to the first and the third quartiles. The horizontal line in each box represents the median, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points. The horizontal line indicates 0.5, the expected value of mean I′ under the neutral coalescent.
