Population structure of sand lances based on seven microsatellite loci.

<p>(A) Estimation of population clustering level from seven microsatellite genotypes following Evanno et al. (2005) criteria obtained from STRUCTURE HARVESTER. (B) Population structure inferred by Bayesian clustering method using the STRUCTURE program. The different colors represent two different clusters (K = 2). Vertical lines separate each lineage of 5 locations. (C) Scatterplots of the discriminant analysis of principal components of the microsatellite data for 5 locations. Individual genotypes appear as dots. Each population is indicated by abbreviation; Baengnyeongdo (BA), Tongyeong (TO), Gijang (GI), Jumunjin (JU) and Japan (JP), respectively.
