Figure 5. Detection of positive selection on the basis of levels of population differentiation. Population pairwise FST values are plotted against expected heterozygosity for all the SNPs identified in our study for Africans versus Europeans (A), Africans versus Asians (B), and Europeans versus Asians (C). The dashed lines represent the 99th and 95th percentiles of the HGDP-CEPH genotyping dataset for the same individuals (represented by the density area in blue; Li et al., 2008). Black dots correspond to silent polymorphisms and red dots correspond to nonsynonymous polymorphisms.
