  1. The first row refers to the percentage of reads that were randomly sampled from the original data set (LBK/Stuttgart) from Lazaridis et al. [19] (coverage ≈19×) using SAMtools. The expected mean coverage was derived by multiplication of the original coverage with the sampling value. The achieved mean coverage was calculated using QualiMap after mapping. Cov % of genome ≥1 read is the percentage of the genome that was covered by at least one read. This was also calculated using QualiMap. Cov % of genome by ANGSD is the percentage of the genome that was reconstructed from the genotypes as derived with ANGSD. % of correctly called bases is the percentage of bases that ANGSD called correctly not regarding the base “N”
