table 2 Estimate of genetic indices for genotypes of both the meta-population and the sub-populations inferred according to their geographical positions on the six river basins. Population size (n); observed heterozygosity (Ho); expected heterozygosity (He); total number of alleles in the population (Ntot); average number of alleles per locus (mN); inbreeding coefficient (F IS); P (F IS) probability value of the inbreeding coefficient; ld, number of loci involved in significant linkage disequilibrium; N.S., not significant, P (hwe), probability of deviation from Hardy Weinberg equilibrium through heterozygote deficit for the meta-population and each population
