Additionally, chromosome 12 is representative of an overall trend in our data, which is that of PTCs that are present in caves at a high frequency (allele frequency ≥ 0.8) approximately half are putative de novo mutations (not present in any surface populations) and half are likely sourced from standing genetic variation (present in at least one surface populations) ( supplementary table S7 , Supplementary material online).
