a
All, the California population containing 81 isolates. Group α isolates were collected from cucurbit plants in 1999 at the Kearney Agricultural Center, and group β isolates were collected from various host species and different areas during 1985 to 1994 (see Lin et al. [22]).
b
Average nucleotide substitutions per site for pairs of random haplotypes within populations. Numbers in parentheses are the standard errors.
