All pairwise tests were significant below the 0.0005 level. Above the diagonal are values of the chi-squared test statistic; numbers of degrees of freedom for the tests ranged from 75 to 85. Below the diagonal lie the number of loci that produced pairwise population differentiation test statistics significant at the 0.01 level. For each population, the last column reports the average of the ratios of its chi-squared statistics to their numbers of degrees of freedom (df).
