Analysis was based on the MISA script, which identified di- to hexa-nucleotide repeat motifs (perfect and compound microsatellites) that are at least 12 bases in length.
a Perfect microsatellites consist of a single repeat motif and are not interrupted anywhere by a base that does not fit the repeat structure
b Compound microsatellites consist of two or more adjacent microsatellites with different repeat types
