a is the observed number of alleles; H T [28] is the gene diversity in the total material (n = 922); F ST [30] estimates the level of genetic differentiation among the twelve samples, with statistical support indicated by exact test for allele frequency heterogeneity (GENEPOP v. 4.0.6: [31]: *** P<0.001).
