Influence of Paleolithic Range Contraction, Admixture and Long-Distance Dispersal on Genetic Gradients of Modern Humans in Asia

Each folder is identified according to the scenario, and contains another folder with the input files (files *.txt, *.par, *.sam, *.asc) to simulate it, the corresponding simulated genetic data (files *.arp) and the derived PC maps (files *.png). A file with the locations of the samples is also included (coord.txt).

* Pure Paleolithic expansion * 
The folder “Paleo” contains the input files (INFILES), the genetic data and the corresponding PC maps simulated under the scenario of a pure Paleolithic expansion, ignoring the range contraction induced by the LGM and LDD events.

* Pure Paleolithic expansion considering the range contraction induced by the LGM * 
The folder “Paleo_REC” contains the input files (INFILES), the genetic data and the corresponding PC maps simulated under the scenario of a pure Paleolithic expansion suffering the range contraction induced by the LGM.

 * Pure Paleolithic expansion considering long-distance dispersal (LDD) events * 
The folder “Paleo_LDD” contains the input files (INFILES), the genetic data  and the corresponding PC maps simulated under the scenario of a pure Paleolithic expansion considering LDD events.
