DNA diversity statistics and neutrality tests were conducted in the programs: ProSeq (Filatov 2002) and DnaSP (Rozas et al. 2003).

a

For the trnL gene encoding tRNA for leucine, all positions in exons are counted as non-silent.

b

Silent sites: synonymous and noncoding.

c

Sample size.

d

Number of polymorphic sites.

e

Average heterozygosity per 100 sites (Nei 1987, equation 10.5).

f

Watterson's estimator of scaled mutation rate (2Neμ) per 100 sites (Watterson 1975).

g

Tajima's D (Tajima 1989), significance or rejection of neutrality is indicated as follows: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.

h

Comparison of the amount of polymorphism in the chloroplast genes and the autosomal Slop gene by the HKA test of neutrality (Hudson et al. 1987).
