Explanation of column headers:

• Year is the year the allele was first described in the literature.
• CWD indicates that the allele is considered Common and Well Documented by Cano et. al. (2007) [DOI] [PubMed].
• Freq is the overall average frequency, across all population samples included in Solberg et. al. (2008). [DOI] [PubMed]
• Regions is the number of world regions the allele appears in.
• The Map link provides a geographical interpolation of allele frequency, using only non-migrant populations (maps are not available for a few alleles because of this).
  N.B.: The maps should be considered crude approximations of regional patterns.
