Figure 2 Map of parviglumis Populations and Hopscotch allele frequency. Map showing the frequency
of the Hopscotch allele in populations of parviglumis where we sampled more than 6 individuals. Size of
circles reflects number of individuals sampled. The Balsas River is shown, as the Balsas River Basin is
believed to be the center of domestication of maize.

RESULTS
Genotyping for the Hopscotch insertion
The genotype at the Hopscotch insertion was confirmed with two PCRs for 837 individuals
of the 1,100 screened (Table S1 and Table S2). Among the 247 maize landrace accessions
genotyped, all but eight were homozygous for the presence of the insertion Within
our parviglumis and mexicana samples we found the Hopscotch insertion segregating
in 37 (n = 86) and four (n = 17) populations, respectively, and at highest frequency
within populations in the states of Jalisco, Colima, and Michoac´an in central-western
Mexico (Fig. 2). Using our Hopscotch genotyping, we calculated diVerentiation between
populations (FST) and subspecies (FCT) for populations in which we sampled sixteen
or more chromosomes. We found that FCT = 0, and levels of FST among populations
within each subspecies (0.22) and among all populations (0.23) (Table 1) are similar to
genome-wide estimates from previous studies Pyh¨aj¨arvi, HuVord & Ross-Ibarra, 2013.
Although we found large variation in Hopscotch allele frequency among our populations,
BayEnv analysis did not indicate a correlation between the Hopscotch insertion and
environmental variables (all Bayes Factors < 1).
