We think this is the “correct” graph. Shows Z. diploperennis (DIP
), Z. mays mexicana (MEX
), Z. mays parviglumis from the Balsas (‘PARV’), ancient Paredones Peruvian sample (N16
), and modern landrace diversity panel (L340
).
This model should also hold for other individual populations. Replace L340
with S. American lowlands (SAM
), Mexican lowlands (MEXL
), Mexican highlands (’MEXH), ancient S. American sample (
Z6), modern maize diversity panel (
507), and ancient Tehuacan sample (
TH162`).
This graph has no admixture and should be wrong.
This model only has admixture from MEX
without subsequent admixutre from PARV
postulated by Kistler 2020.
This model only postulates admixture with PARV
and ancient maize, without MEX
.
I think Kistler 2020 suggests Andean maize (ANDES
) should have no secondary PARV
gene flow?
Subsequent admixture with MEX
in MEXH
compared to MEXL
.
Admixture not due to PARV
-MEX
admixture.
And additional PARV
admixture with modern maize doesn’t solve this:
