a

Obs., observed; hom., homozygous; wt., wild type; freq., frequency; mut., mutation; het., heterozygous; SMT, short mononucleotide tracts.

b

Expected values are derived from the mathematical model on the assumption of the given hypothetical or observed wild-type frequencies.

c

The binomial sum is not reported for expected biallelic mutation frequencies of 0.

d

3% was imputed for calculation of expected frequencies, as described in the text. The binomial sum will be lower with higher imputed values and vice versa.

e

Assumption of biallelic mutations in Co53 and KM12.
