MAF, minor allele frequency; #, number; SNPs, single nucleotide polymorphisms; Ho, level of genetic variability in terms of observed heterozygosity; He, level of genetic variability in terms of expected heterozygosity.

^aValues represent the within-population average.

^bValues were obtained by the analysis of the combined dataset, not the average of the individual populations.
