Table 2.
Genetic variation in the studied female lynx population from southern Finland (N = 132) during the years from 2007 to 2015. Expected (H E) and observed (H O) heterozygosity, number of different alleles (N A), and inbreeding values (F IS) calculated for the 23 short‐tandem repeats. Loci deviating significantly from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium are highlighted by bold F IS values
