Table 3. Estimates of genetic diversity of kea microsatellite data within contemporary and historical (1877–1934) samples with the sample size for each region/population (n), observed heterozygosity (HO), expected heterozygosity (HE), allelic richness (RS), mean allele numbers (A) and P-values for HE and RS.
Sample | n | HO | HE * | RS | A * |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Historical (1877–1934) | 15 | 0.548 | 0.365 | 1.470 | 3.667 |
Contemporary (2010–2011) | 410 | 0.449 | 0.439 | 1.482 | 4.529 |
