The clustering results based on microsatellites. A Plot of ΔK; the peak represents the most likely number of clusters (K = 5); B Bayesian clustering results inferred by STRUCTURE with the most likely model (K = 5). Each vertical bar represents an individual. The height of each bar indicates the probability of assignment to each of K optimal clusters; C PCoA plot showing genetic similarities among populations of M. himalayana; D NJ tree based on the genetic distance of all populations; E UPGMA dendrogram based on Nei’s standard genetic distance, showing the relationships between sampled cities. Blue, red, green, yellow and purple indicate Clusters 1–5, respectively
