Genetic diversity of the Finnish brown bear population.

Expected, (HE) and observed (HO) heterozygosities, number of different alleles (A) and inbreeding values (FIS) calculated for the 12 short tandem repeats in the Finnish brown bear population of 286 individuals, sampled from 2006 to 2010. Significant FIS values are marked with *. Loci deviating significantly from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium after Bonferroni correction are highlighted by bold FIS values.
