  1. One hundred datasets were simulated given the point estimates of the 2-kb analysis and model M6 (cf. Table 1). Bootstrap replicates were generated by cutting long (0.5 Mb) contiguous sequences into 2-kb blocks. Confidence intervals were calculated as 2 standard deviations on either side of the maximum composite likelihood estimate
