Nests coded as in Table 1. nDNA: results of the individual assignments of the hatchlings including the probabilities to be associated to the Atlantic nesting beaches and the minimum number of fathers detected. Bold values indicate high probability (>0.8) of individual assignments. mtDNA: haplotypes found and nesting area from where they have been reported (shared refers to both Atlantic and Mediterranean). na: not applicable as no more than two hatchlings were sampled for these nests as needed by GERUD v 2.0. ^aThis includes one sample of the nesting female. ^bMean value of the two samples. ^cGenBank accession numbers for the identified haplotypes (CC-A1.1 = EU179436, CC-A2.1 = EU179445, CC-A3.1 = EU179455, CC-A9.1 = EU179463, CC-A10.4 = JQ340912, CC-A20.1 = EU179452) ^dA 380 bp short version of this haplotype has been found in the Mediterranean nesting beach of Zakynthos (Greece)⁵².
