n, number of pairwise comparisons (for relatedness estimates) or individuals (for inbreeding estimates) analysed for the first population (1) or the second population (2).

a

Statistically significant differences between populations or between the sexes, for which the difference between the two mean values tested fell outside the 95% confidence intervals generated during bootstrap simulations.
