Cluster membership classification of <i>Macrobrachium</i> species and the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) plot obtained from the full set SNPs (N = 1,814) using the Adegenet package assuming four (K = 4) and five (K = 5) populations.

Each bar in the admixture plot (left) represents an individual: M.ch–M. chevalieri; M.dx–M. dux; M.so–M. sollaudii; M.fe–M. felicinum; M.sp–M. sp; M.ma–M. macrobrachion; M.vo–M. vollenhovenii.</p

Distribution of minor allele frequency (MAF) for different <i>Macrobrachium</i> species: <i>M</i>. <i>dux</i>, <i>M</i>. <i>macrobrachion</i>, <i>M</i>. <i>sollaudii</i>, <i>M</i>. <i>vollenhovenii</i>, <i>M</i>. <i>chevalieri; M</i>. <i>felicinum</i>, and <i>M</i>. <i>sp</i>.

PCA (left plot) and DAPC (right plot) obtained from using the reduced set of ‘private SNPs’ (N = 72 SNPs, called ‘private SNPs80’ panel; see Methods).
