Fig. 3

Plots representing the uppermost hierarchical level of structure were constructed using the cluster assignments inferred from the Delta k results (K = 7, and K = 19) shown in Supplementary Fig. S746. Plots are color-coded according to their K value (i.e., K = 7 matches B, and K = 19 matches C). A Mixture partition for K7 and K19. Each vertical line represents a single individual and is colored according to the highest proportion of genetic variation assigned to each BAPS group. The order of populations is set according to the geographic orientation from north to south via Taiwan. B, C Network of gene flow (p = 0.01) for K7 and K19 and n > 20. Colors in (B) and (C) are associated with the mixture plot of the same K value in (A). Arrows indicate the average fraction of sequence variation obtained from the source cluster to the target cluster. Feedback arrows beside clusters indicate the fraction of gene sources arising within the BAPS group. Groups/clusters with less than 20 individuals (i.e., Heping, Miaoli, Pingtung, and Xiaoliuqiu) are not shown in the network of gene flow. Note: A complete heatmap of gene flow for all groups (K = 30) is shown in Supplementary Fig. S3.
