Table 6 Bottleneck analysis for six populations of A. venetum. P-values are shown for Wilcoxon’s sign-rank test under both the stepwise mutation model (SMM) and the two-phase mutation model (TPM), along with the shape of the allelic distribution inferred from the mode-shift test

  1. a Note that an L-shaped distribution of alleles is expected in the absence of a bottleneck, whereas a distribution with a shifted mode is expected in a population that has gone through a bottleneck
