Figure 2. Estimated population structure for 33 Moroccan L. infantum strains as inferred by STRUCTURE software on the basis of data for 14 microsatellite markers.

Each of the strains is represented by a single vertical line divided into K colors, where K is the number of populations assumed. Each color represents one population, and the length of the colors segment shows the strain’s estimated proportion of membership in that population.(A) the two main populations derived from the whole dataset which divided strains into MON-1 and non-MON-1 populations. (B) Sub-population analysis of Population 1 (MON-1 group) shows two sub-populations. K represents the true number of populations and sub-populations.
