Model specifications and prior distributions for demographic parameters and locus-specific mutation model parameters.

UN: Uniform distribution, with two parameters – minimum and maximum values; GA: Gamma distribution with three parameters – minimum and maximum values and shape parameter value; LU: Log-Uniform distribution with two parameters – minimum and maximum values. See Figure 2 for the demographic parameters of each model tested. The mutation model parameters for the microsatellite loci were the mutation rate (μmic), the parameter determining the shape of the gamma distribution of individual loci mutation rate (P), and the Single Insertion Nucleotide rate (SNI).
