  1. n, number of pairwise comparisons (for relatedness estimates) or individuals (for inbreeding estimates) analysed for the first population (1) or the second population (2).
  2. aStatistically significant differences between populations or between the sexes, for which the difference between the two mean values tested fell outside the 95% confidence intervals generated during bootstrap simulations.
