Pairwise genetic distances between and within eight “Lingyangjiao” species based on 349-bp mini-barcodes

Species	[1]	[2]	[3]	[4]	[5]	[6]	[7]	[8]
[1] Procapra picticaudata	0.1
[2] Procapra przewalskii	3.1	0.2
[3] Procapra gutturosa	3.1	0.5	0.5
[4] Saiga tatarica	15.3	17.2	16.8	0.1
[5] Gazella subgutturosa	16.0	17.0	16.7	13.9	0.1
[6] Pantholops hodgsonii	18.3	20.5	20.4	15.2	16.4	0.0
[7] Ovis aries	20.1	22.5	22.5	15.4	16.2	10.2	0.1
[8] Capra hircus	18.5	19.9	20.2	14.0	16.1	13.5	11.1	0.5

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