* Significant by Mann-Whitney U test of no. allele between Ubon Ratchathani and Tak.

^# Significant by Mann-Whitney U test of MOI between Ubon Ratchathani and Kanchanaburi and between Kanchanaburi and Tak. 10 MS and 2 MS indicate MOI as the highest number of observed alleles at any of the 10 loci and at any of the two most diverse loci, respectively.

^a Allelic richness based on a minimum sample size of 32 haploid individual samples.

^b Allelic richness based on a minimum sample size of 120 haploid individual samples.

^ns Not significant among sites by Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis test.

^f Significant difference in the percentage of multiclonal infections among the three sites (p < 0.05, Pearson Chi-Square test).
