    <p>F<sub>ST</sub> values were averaged over six SNPs and 95% confidence intervals were computed using 10000 bootstrap resamplings. The mainland population is grouped across all subpopulations in the mainland, <i>i.e.</i>, Kanto-Koshinetsu, Tokai-Hokuriku, Kinki, Chugoku-Shikoku, and Kyushu. Genotype data of the Okinawa Islanders were obtained from the Pan-Asian SNP (PASNP) consortium database.</p

    Variance components for the J-MICC and the PASNP data.

    <p>The total genetic variation is partitioned into variations between two subpopulations (“Among subpopulations”), among individuals within each subpopulation (“Among individuals within subpopulations”) and within individuals. The relative proportions (%) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for variance components are also shown.</p

    Geographic locations of the populations studied in Japan.

    <p>Kanto-Koshinetsu: the eastern-central region of the main island. Tokai-Hokuriku: the central region of the main island. Kinki: the southern-central region of the main island. Chugoku-Shikoku: the westernmost part of the main island and the fourth largest island. Kyushu: the third largest island, located southwest of the main island. The Amami Islands: a part of the Southwest Islands, located southwest of Kyushu. The black circles represent the approximate geographic positions of the enrollment institutions, and the red-colored islands in the enlarged view of Japan's Southwest Islands (right) represent those used for sampling in the J-MICC study (Tokunoshima and Okinoerabu Islands) and in the survey by the PASNP consortium (the Okinawa Islands).</p
