Evaluating the possibility of detecting evidence of positive selection across Asia with sparse genotype data from the HUGO Pan-Asian SNP Consortium

Table 2 Empirical comparison of consistency in positive selection signals in HapMap2 panels using haploPS, iHS and XP-EHH on the original 2.6 million SNPs and on a reduced panel of around 55,000 SNPs

Method	Number of positively selected region identified
	Original density	Reduced density (overlapped with original¹)
haploPS	310	3 (2)
iHS	188	57 (6)
XP-EHH	35	9 (0)
Fst	159	123 (28)

¹Number of signals that have been identified by both the original-density dataset and the reduced-density dataset.
