    <p>Frogs facing left represent the <i>Ivory Coast</i> strain and those facing right are <i>Nigerian</i> strains. Frogs colored black indicate strains used in this study. The arrows and figures next to frogs indicate transportation of animals and the years when those were held (if there is a record).</p

    Basic genotypic data of 60 SSLP markers in eleven <i>X</i>. <i>tropicalis</i> colonies.

    <p>Abbreviations: <i>P</i>, proportion of polymofic loci; <i>N</i><sub>A</sub>, number of alleles; <i>H</i><sub>E</sub>, expected heterozygosity; <i>F</i>, fixation index (i.e., inbreeding coefficient).</p

    <p>(A) Neighbor joining trees of the strains based on genetic distances (<i>D</i><sub>A</sub>) of SSLP data (left) and p-distance of mitochondrial haplotypes (2,328 nucleotide sites) (right). Numbers on branches indicate percent bootstrap probability (>50%). The values for SSLP tree are given in order for <i>D</i><sub>A</sub>/<i>D</i><sub>PS</sub>. (B) Comparison of the control region structures of mitochondrial genomes. Structures of the control region and alignments of identified putative origin of H-strand replication (O<sub>H</sub>), conserved sequence blocks (CSB-1-3), and repeat motifs are shown. (C) Neighbor joining tree of the strains and wild individuals based on p-distance of mitochondrial haplotypes (1,109 nucleotide sites).</p

    <p>The curved dotted strain indicates theoretical reduction of heterozygosity via single brother-sister matings for every generation, calculated from the following equation: </p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p><mi>H</mi>E</p><mo>=</mo><p><mi>H</mi><mn>0</mn></p><p></p><p></p><p><mo>(</mo></p><p><mn>1</mn><mo>−</mo></p><p><mn>1</mn></p><p></p><p></p><p><mn>2</mn><mi>N</mi></p>e<p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><mo>)</mo><p></p><p></p><mi>t</mi><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>, where <i>H</i><sub>0</sub> is the heterozygosity of the founder colony, and <i>N</i>e is effective population size (i.e., number of individuals that contribute to breeding). <i>H</i><sub>E</sub> of F0 of <i>N</i> (Gurdon Inst.) (0.509) and 2 are used for <i>H</i><sub>0</sub> and <i>N</i>e, respectively. Open rectangles indicate mean <i>H</i><sub>E</sub> estimated from individual based simulation using VORTEX version 10 [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0133963#pone.0133963.ref043" target="_blank">43</a>]. During simulation, allele frequencies of <i>N</i> (Gurdon Inst.) were used as initial allele frequency, and single brother-sister mating was conducted in every generation. The simulation was repeated one hundred times. Bar indicates standard deviation.<p></p
