  1. Genetic data was obtained from the entire sample of 255 individuals. Plsib is the probability of the identity among siblings; Ho is the observed heterozygosity; HE is the expected heterozygosity; FIS is the inbreeding coefficient. No. alleles denotes the number of alleles observed at a given locus. FIS values are all nonsignificant (α = 0.05,10,000 permutations) after the Bonferroni correction factor is applied.
