NB = total number of bands; CB = Common bands (number of different bands with a frequency >0.05); RB = Rare bands (number of different bands with a frequency <0.05); NWS = Not widely shared bands, (common bands found in 25% or fewer populations); PB = number of private bands; %P = percent polymorphic loci at the 5% level, expressed as a percentage.
