    <p>Region C1 groups samples from Mozambique (<i>M</i>) and Eastern South Africa (<i>ESA</i>), and Region C3 groups samples from Antongil Bay (<i>AB</i>) and Southern Madagascar (<i>SM</i>). Haplotype (h) and nucleotide (π) diversities, as well as their standard deviations are provided. Numbers of males and females do not always add up to the sample size, given that the dataset contains individuals sex. Duplicate samples were removed from the analysis.</p

    AMOVA results for breeding areas A, B, C and X of Southern Hemisphere humpback whales using molecular distances (Φst) and haplotype frequencies (Fst).

    <p>The AMOVAs (or ‘Global’ value) are shown for the entire dataset (All samples), animals of known sex from molecular sexing (M+F), females and males. The P-value is the probability of a more extreme variance component or F-value than that observed, in comparison to a null distribution of these values on 5,000 random permutations of the data matrix. Significant values (p<0.05) are highlighted in bold.</p

    Estimated number of migrants per generation (Nem) exchanged between neighbouring Southern Hemisphere humpback whale Breeding Regions, as estimated using the program MIGRATE.

    <p>Magnitude and directionality are shown by reading the first row (ie A+) in the first place, and then matching the appropriate cell with regions listed in leftmost column. (*) Comparisons between Breeding Regions A or B vs. X, and A vs. C are omitted, as they are not neighbouring Breeding Stocks. Sub populations in Breeding Regions C1 and C3 were used for the MIGRATE analysis.</p
