Figure 4

Probability density function of the length of IBD segments. A model of a bottleneck that occurred 20 generations ago with N=1000 founding diploid individuals, mimicking the Ashkenazy Jewish bottleneck (Gusev et al., 2012). The model assumes a constant size with N=1000 diploid individuals followed by a strong expansion 20 generations ago that prevented coalescence events. The two other models correspond to constant-size populations with 500 or 1000 individuals.
