  • Positions A65 to A101 of st-3 and st-8 lines, probably originated by some sort of genetic exchange, have been excluded from the estimation of the nucleotide diversity.

  • N, number of sequences considered; m, maximum number of nucleotides sequenced in each region; S, number of segregating sites; π, average number of pairwise differences between sequences per nucleotide.
