Fig. 3: Complex history of admixture within the wolves of southwest Asia.
From: Continent-wide view of genomic diversity and divergence in the wolves of Asia
D statistic values plotted against geographic distance away from the A Indian wolf, B African wolf, and C Tibetan wolf distributional ranges, as defined in Fig. S1. A negative D statistic indicates increased derived allele sharing with the A Indian wolf, B African wolf, and C Tibetan wolf (A) as X based on the topology (((Norway wolf, Y), X), Andean fox). D The model with the highest likelihood inferred using fastsimcoal2 corresponds to an introgression event between the Indian lineage and wolves of southwestern Asia. Time is given in years and was obtained by assuming a generation time of 4.4 years. E The topologies representing the introgression scenario (green), historical relationship (purple), and other processes such as ILS (gray) that were used to infer topology weights when using an outgroup (Andean fox, AF), the African wolf (AfrWolf), and gray wolf populations from India (Ind), southwestern Asia (SWAsia), central Asia (CAsia), and Europe (Eur). Average topology weights for each of 105 possible topologies found in low (<0.2 cM/Mb), medium (0.2–2 cM/Mb), and high (>2 cM/Mb) recombination rate regions for all 105 possible topologies across the F autosomes and G X chromosome.
