Human data estimates. Representations of the posterior probability distributions for the six divergence model parameters from the data of Wall et al. [14]. Three pairwise population comparisons are plotted: Africa-Asia (AA), Africa-Europe (AE), and Africa-Oceania (AO). The heavy lines in the box plots are the median, the hinge of the boxes are the 25% and 75% quantiles and the outer whiskers represent the 2.5% and 97.5% quantiles. Numerical values for the median and 95% highest posterior density intervals can be found in Table 3. In the plot of the ratio of the X chromosome to autosomal effective population size (h), the horizontal gray line delineates a ratio of 3/4. As in Figure 2, the posterior probability distributions shown here are taken over all ten replicate runs of the Markov chain.
