Fig. 3

a Boxplot of Fst values calculated from pairwise comparisons of five groups of tea plant accessions (identified in Fig. 1a). Fst was calculated on 100 kb sliding windows with a step size of 10 kb along all scaffolds in the tea reference genome. (n = 180,916, 181,969, 182,127, 182,256, 181,842, 181,136, 181,436, 181,989, 182,235, 181,300 sliding windows for plots ordered from left to right). Boxes = interquartile ranges, middles = medians, whiskers = 1.5 × the interquartile range. b–e Plot of selective sweep (b, c) and nucleotide diversity values (d, e) along scaffold859 and scaffold1492 that contain selective sweep regions. The dotted line in b, c indicates a threshold value of 18.40 and the dotted line in d, e indicates a threshold value of 1.054. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
