Na, number of alleles; Ne, number of effective alleles; I, Shannon’s information index; Ho, observed heterozygosity; He, expected heterozygosity; uHe, Unbiased Expected Heterozygosity = [2N/(2N − 1)] * He; F, inbreeding coefficient = (He − Ho)/He = 1 − (Ho/He). *P ≤ 0.05 or **P ≤ 0.01 for difference between a core subset and the total population of Sapindus in simple t-tests.
