  1. *The row total is lower than sum of the individual column totals because a proportion of these SNPs were from multiple categories (e.g. discovered in both the RR and RAD experiments); see Additional file 1: Table S1.
  2. **‘Quality’ refers to the cluster properties of the SNP when genotyped on the Axiom array. Low quality SNPs are those with cluster properties that fall below a threshold value (e.g. < 97% call rate).
