TABLE 6.
Genetic diversity of Aspergillus flavus S-morphotype isolates recovered from soil and maize samples across the US from 2002 to 2017.
| Region | N | NS | NH | NPH | NA (range) | HA |
| Arizona | 145 | 145 | 84 | 74 | 5.118 (2-10) | 0.505 |
| Southeastern USa | 54 | 38 | 25 | 14 | 5.412 (1-13) | 0.577 |
| Texas | 245 | 206 | 112 | 98 | 8.588 (3-17) | 0.612 |
N, Total number of A. flavus S-morphotype isolates; NS, Number of isolates after sample correction; NH, Number of haplotypes; NPH, Number of private haplotypes (Haplotypes detected only in a single region); NA, Average number of alleles across 17 polymorphic SSR loci; HA, Haploid gene diversity calculated using GenAlex 6.51b2 (Smouse et al., 2017). aSoutheastern US includes Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi.
