  1. a continental Indians including Pakistan and Bangladesh (excluding Andaman & Nicobar)
  2. b number of haplotypes
  3. c number of shared haplotypes between group 1 and group 2 (95% credible regions; CR)
  4. d CR of the proportion of those haplotypes in group 1 that occur also in group 2
  5. e CR of the proportion of those haplotypes in group 2 that occur also in group 1
  6. f 41% of the shared haplotypes are shared only between members of the same population
