(a) Genetic distance between the Alta (▴) and Dordogne ([cirf ]) populations. Axis 1 and axis 2 explain, respectively, 37.6% and 17.2% of the distribution. (b) Comparison of the genetic diversity observed in the Alta and Dordogne populations, along with other Norwegian populations from Lærdalselva ( × ), Årøyelva (Δ), Suldalslågen (□) and Batnfjordelva (○) (see Johnsen et al.15 for location). Axis 1 and axis 2 explain 31.1% and 17.2% of the distribution, respectively. One symbol is one individual, N=52.
