  1. Values in parentheses denote standard errors. N = sample size; GL = percentage of mean proportion of successfully genotyped loci; PL = proportion of polymorphic loci; ML = proportion of monomorphic loci; AO = number of observed alleles; AE = number of expected alleles; AR = allelic richness; NP = number of private alleles; PIC = polymorphic information content; HO = observed heterozygosity; uHE = unbiased expected heterozygosity; FIS = estimates of departure from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium; P = probability of obtaining, by chance, FIS values higher than those observed after 10,000 random permutations (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001); PID = probability of identity; PIDsibs = probability of identity among full sibs.
