Table 4.

Test for deviations from HWE for each sex and trend tests between sexes and alleles in RtSB03 locus in wild populations. Shown are fixation indices (FIS) and significance levels for heterozygosity excess tests as estimated after 12000 randomisations in FSTAT (F) and after 1000 iterations per patches of the Markov chain algorithm in Genepop program (G). df = degrees of freedom.n = number of individuals
