Parsimoniously reconstructed genealogies of sample WS ( M. edulis , North Sea) and sample LU ( M. edulis , Bay of Biscay). Mutations are indicated with dots. The single sequence belonging to the B clade sampled in an individual from LU as a result of introgression was used to root genealogies but was not represented and was excluded from the analyses. Interpretations of sample genealogies under the hypothesis of a selective sweep are presented in terms of descendants of the swept allele versus ancestral lineages that survived to the sweep through recombination. The results of the likelihood ratio test [16] and estimations of the age, T, and the strength, S, of the sweep are given below genealogies.
