  1. # G: number of genets analysed with AFLP markers. # loc: number of AFLP loci. PPL: percentage polymorphic loci at the 5% level corrected for sample size. Br: band richness corrected for sample size. Hj (SE): expected heterozygosity or Nei's gene diversity and its standard error. FIS: average inbreeding coefficient.
