Fig. 2

Heterozygosity rate of scaffolds mapped to autosomes and the Z-chromosome in white tailed eagle. Heterozygosity rate as number of heterozygous positions divided by length. A filtered heterozygosity rate of the female. The dashed and dotted lines represent the mean filtered heterozygosity rate for autosomal and Z scaffolds, respectively. The full line is for all scaffolds. B unfiltered heterozygosity rate for the female plotted against the male. C filtered heterozygosity rate for the female plotted against the male. D filtered versus unfiltered heterozygosity rate in the female. E filtered versus unfiltered heterozygosity rate in the male. In all plots shape and color reflect scaffold type; grey dot is autosomal; black star Z-chromosomal; triangle, diamond, square and black dot are scaffolds NW_011950951.1, NW_011950990.1, NW_011951047.1, NW_011951051.1, respectively, which all show high heterozygosity in the female and have a relative depth as being autosomal. In B through E, dashed lines represent the identity line (slope = 1)
