Genetic diversity measures estimated using 14 microsatellite loci in each of 20 Paeonia rockii populations.

Note: n, sample size; A, number of alleles per locus; AR[10], mean within-population allelic richness for a standardized sample size of ten gene copies; HO, observed heterozygosity; HE, unbiased expected heterozygosity; FIS, fixation index. Sequential Bonferroni correction was used to determine significance levels in multiple tests.aDeviations of FIS from 0 in each population were evaluated by permutation tests.bProbabilities associated with Wilcoxon's signed-rank tests (one-tailed) for HE>HEQ, where HEQ is the heterozygosity expected at mutation-drift equilibrium under the infinite-allele model (IAM) and the stepwise-mutation model (SMM) (Cornuet and Luikart 1996; Piry et al. 1999).*P**P***P
