Central Asia 7 3 97 φST = 0.027***
Europe 7 4 96 φST = 0.040***
Morocco 3 8 92 φST = 0.084***
North America 4 4 96 φST = 0.041***

All Regions 26 8 4 88 φCT = −0.079***
φSC = −0.040***
φST = −0.115***

Only regions with more than two samples were included in analyses. Statistical significance of φ-statistics was obtained using 1000 random permutations [50].
