  1. *MCMC Markov Chain Monte Carlo
  2. α The ad hoc ∆K method (Evanno et al. 2005); a Accessions unassigned to any population or country; b Accessions assigned to their countries of origin
  3. β The median (MedMedK and MaxMedK) or mean (MedMeaK and MaxMeaK) estimators used to determine which subpopulations belonged to a cluster (K) (Puechmaille et al. 2016)
