Pairwise genetic distances between and within eight “Lingyangjiao” species based on 644-bp barcodes

Species	[1]	[2]	[3]	[4]	[5]	[6]	[7]	[8]
[1] Procapra picticaudata	0.1
[2] Procapra przewalskii	2.9	0.1
[3] Procapra gutturosa	2.8	0.5	0.6
[4] Saiga tatarica	15.1	16.4	15.9	0.3
[5] Gazella subgutturosa	16.5	17.3	17.0	13.4	0.2
[6] Pantholops hodgsonii	16.8	18.2	17.9	14.6	16.2	0.1
[7] Ovis aries	19.9	20.5	20.4	16.0	15.9	11.6	0.1
[8] Capra hircus	18.7	19.2	19.4	14.5	16.1	13.9	11.2	0.4

The distances were estimated based on Kimura 2-parameter model and showed as percentage. Bold numbers on the diagonal were intraspecific distances, and numbers below the diagram were interspecific distances.
