Table 1.

Spearman’s rank correlation matrix comparing levels of genetic variation and marker traits. The upper right side of table contains correlation coefficients (r_s) while the bottom left side of the table includes P values with the number of markers included in each pairwise comparison in parentheses. Significant (P < 0.05) correlation coefficients are in bold.
