| Pvs25 | 10 | 12 | 12 | 9 | 0.00431 (0.00077) | -1.903 (ns) |
| CDC-2 | 7 | 17 | 17 | 8 | 0.00845 (0.0011) | 0.433 (ns) |
n, number of sequences employed; S, number of segregating sites; η, total number of mutations; π, estimate of nucleotide diversity with Jukes and Cantor correction and its SD F*, Fu and Li test (30); ns, not significant for α = 0.10.
