In the Discussion section, the level of nucleotide polymorphism (pi = 0.00006) is for the non-coding region of OsAMT1;1 in O. sativa. Please note it is better to use the level of nucleotide polymorphism (pi = 0.00004) in the entire gene sequence for the comparison with that of the 111 chosen gene fragments, although both the levels lead to the same conclusion.
