Analysis of molecular variance of LcDHN-like gene of Liriodendron populations

Source of variation	Degrees of freedom	Sum of squares	Variance components	Percentage variation	Fixation Indices	P-Value
Among species	1	3862.12	26.87	61.82	FSC = 0.17	< 0.001*
Within species among populations	25	1130.85	2.78	6.40	FST = 0.68	< 0.001*
Within populations	284	3921.82	13.81	31.78	FCT = 0.62	< 0.001*

^*indicates that Fixation Indices showed significant difference when significance tests (1023 permutations) were at P < 0.001 level
