*Zns, interlocus genetic association; |D'|, linkage disequilibrium (LD) value, where Y is LD value and X is nucleotide distance in kilobases; gp 60, 60-kDa glycoprotein gene.
†By Fisher exact test (after Bonferroni correction).
‡Based on concatenated multilocus gene sequence of all loci (15,717 bp). 
§Based on concatenated multilocus gene sequence of all loci excluding gp60 (14,768 bp).
