Mismatch distributions of pairwise nucleotide differences for each of the red deer main genetic groups (K=3 in the SAMOVA analyses) found in the study area. Observed distribution of pairwise nucleotide differences (thin line). Distribution of pairwise nucleotide differences expected under a model of population expansion (thick line). Upper and lower bound of the 95% confidence intervals for the observed values (dashed lines).
