  1. Note: All the values are statistically significant difference (p > 0.05). Fst value ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 means no genetic difference (i.e. similar) and 1 means high difference (isolated populations). Values close to zero indicate the populations are sharing their genetic structure and has minimal difference between them. The five clusters are: Cluster 1: Chile, Georgia, Hungary Turkey, Italy and the USA; Cluster 2: Romania; Cluster3: Austria, Serbia and Slovenia; Cluster 4: China and Cluster 5: Japan
