  1. Fixation indices were calculated from haplotype frequencies (G XX ) and pairwise differences (Φ XX ) respectively. Values for null allele corrected microsatellite data (STR) in brackets. V A /Φ CT /F CT : among regions relative to the total population, V B /Φ SC /F SC : among local populations within regions, V C /Φ ST / F ST : among local populations relative to the total population, significance levels: * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, asterisks outside brackets refer to both values per fixation index.
