  1. N: number of individuals. m: number of alleles. π (±SD): population nucleotide diversity and standard deviation. AAdist (±SE): mean amino acid divergence within individual and standard error of the mean. AAdistSelect (±SE): mean amino acid divergence within individual for sites under positive selection according to Gillingham et al. [21] and standard error of the mean. APD (±SE): average per cent difference and standard error of the mean
