  1. (a) DYS19, DYS389I, DYS389II, DYS390, DYS391 and DYS392.
  2. (b) Divergence time according to [28, 29].
  3. (c) Expansion time was estimated only in the populations involved in the J1-Page08 expansion as revealed by the network illustrated in figure 6, through the BATWING procedure [30], assuming an initial constant population size followed by expansion at time β with a growth rate of α. Alfa and beta parameters are as in [31].
  4. For both methods the effective mutation rate and a generation time of 25 years [28] were used.
