Table 2.

Mean uncorrected (p-distance; %) and corrected pairwise genetic distance (Kimura-2-parameter K2P; %) between Sanguina nivaloides field samples from different regions based on the ITS2 rDNA nucleotide sequence below and above the diagonal. Mean uncorrected and corrected pairwise genetic distances are shown in the first column. The presence of n.c. (not calculated) in the results denotes cases in which it was not possible to estimate evolutionary distances (single sequence from the region).
