Figure 4
Average kinship coefficient plotted against logarithmic distance between Saimaa ringed seal individual pairs. The plots are based on (A) 17 microsatellite loci, and (B) mtDNA haplotypes (Loiselle) and genetic distance between haplotypes (Nij). Distance classes differing significantly from the mean kinship of the population are marked with asterisks: ***P < 0.001; *P < 0.05.
