The region Switzerland includes Swiss samples north and west of the Alps. The region Italy/France includes samples from the Swiss canton Ticino, situated south of the Alps and part of the Italian Po Basin. The gene stol-11 was monomorphic in tuf-a stolbur and not included. Genotype frequencies are shown in Appendix S3.
