Table 4.
Generalized comparison of the levels of genetic diversity obtained with AFLPs and SSRs from species that have originated via anagenesis and cladogenesis on the two islands of the Juan Fernández Archipelago. See Table 1 for the actual data. RC, Robinson Crusoe Island; AS, Alejandro Selkirk Island.
