  1. O 3 + 4 * pools gene arragements O3+4 and O3+4+8 used in the present work. Together with Ost, their combined frequency is ≥ 0.90 in central European populations and drops to approximately 0.50 in south-western Europe, where arrangement O3+4+7 is also frequent. However, from our previous data [34] no difference in Tp is detected between O3+4+7 and O 3 + 4 * , which justifies their pooling and allows estimating average effects assuming two gene arrangements: Ost and the rest. Gene arrangement frequencies where taken from the "new collections" in Solé et al. [52] and Balanyà et al. [54].
