Table 3.

Correlation tests with Pearson's product-moment correlation. The P -values are given below the diagonal, with values significant after Bonferroni correction in bold. Above the diagonal are the r -values. Microsatellite- (MS) and SNP-expected heterozygosity (HE) are reported as well as allelic richness (AR), polymorphic loci in percentage (Poly), mean average percentage difference among individuals (APD), Pi (mean number of pairwise differences between all pairs of alleles in the population), theta k (index of allelic richness), mean number of MHC alleles per individual (MHC /ind), and total number of different MHC alleles in pop/sample size (MHC/pop)
