Molecular analysis of variance (AMOVA) of the nine subpopulations of BMSA, BEMB and TLG based on distance method structure
| Source of variation | df | Sum of squares | Variance components | Percent variation | Fixation index (P-value) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Among groups | 2 | 171.864 | 0.89603 (Va) | 13.4 | FCT = 0.14 (P = 0.003) |
| Among subpopulations within groups | 6 | 44.265 | 0.05553 (Vb) | 0.83 | FSC = 0.01 (P = 0.046) |
| Among individuals within populations | 254 | 1461.985 | 5.75585 (Vc) | 85.8 | FST = 0.14 (P < 0.0001) |
| Total | 262 | 1678.114 | 6.70741 | 100 |
Abbreviations: df, degrees of freedom; Va, variance of a; Vb, variance of b; Vc, variance of c; FCT, tested under random permutations of whole populations across regions; FSC, tested under random permutation of individuals across populations but within the same region; FST, tested under random permutation of individuals across populations regardless of either their original populations or regions
