(a) The correlation between Ne and β observed for SNVs belonging to eleven allele frequency categories with DAF: < 0.025, 0.025–0.1, 0.1–0.2, 0.2–0.3, 0.3–0.4, 0.4–0.5, 0.5–0.6, 0.6–0.7, 0.7–0.8, 0.8–0.9 and > 0.9. Nucleotide substitutions (SNVs with DAF =1) were excluded. Only the upper values of the range are shown in X-axis. The correlations observed for SNVs with DAF < 0.2 were not statistically significant (P > 0.10) and remaining relationships were highly significant (at least P < 10− 2). (b) Scatter plot showing the magnitude of the relationship shown in Fig. 2a for difference allele frequency categories. X-axis shows the mid-values of the derived allele frequency categories and the slopes of the regression lines of Fig. 2a are shown on the Y-axis. The slopes of the lines for SNVs with DAF ≤ 0.2 are not included as those relationships were not statistically significant
