From top line, the values in Table indicate the K_ST and F_ST, Hedrick's G'_ST and Jost's D statistics. Bold italic shows values which are statistically significant for both of K_ST and F_ST, with positive values of G'_ST and D. Underline represents statistical significant K_ST and F_ST with more than 0.05 of G'_ST and D. Bold characters indicate conservation and management units which have more than 10 samples. Chokai Sanchi, Southern Ouu, Southern Alps and Kii Hanto units are excluded due to small number of samples. ^*: P < 0.05; ^**: P < 0.01 (permutation test, 1,000 replicates).
