Map ref. corresponds to Figure 1 with bold numbers indicating samples from breeding grounds. The numbers of individuals analysed for mtDNA (Nmt) and microsatellites (Nnuc) are given. For mtDNA, the average number of nucleotide differences (K), the number of haplotypes (NH), haplotype diversity (H±s.d.) and nucleotide diversity (π±s.d., in percent) are indicated. For microsatellites, means are given for allelic richness (AR), observed heterozygosity (HO), and expected heterozygosity (HE). Multi-locus inbreeding coefficients (FIS) were calculated for each sample. There were no significant deviations from null-expectations.
