  1. Abbreviations: MLG, multi-locus genotype; NMLG, number of unique MLG; NS, non-significant; TSP, Tropical Southwestern Pacific; WIO, Western Indian Ocean.
  2. For each population are given: total sample size (N), NMLG, clonal richness R=[(NMLG−1)/(N−1)], observed (HO) and expected (HE) heterozygosities, inbreeding coefficient (FIS), allelic richness Ar(26)±s.e. and private allelic richness Ap(26)±s.e. GPS coordinates of sampling sites are in decimal degrees. HO, HE and FIS were calculated keeping one representative per MLG per population. With the FIS, is indicated the test significance for deviation to Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium: *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001.
