Conservation genetics of a rare Gerbil species: a comparison of the population genetic structures and demographic histories of the locally rare Pygmy Gerbil and the common Anderson's Gerbil

Table 3 AMOVA results for G. henleyi and G. a. allenbyi based on analyses of the CR and CO2 sequences

Species	Sequence	Source of variation	df	Percentage of variation	PhiPT
G. henleyi	CR	Within populations	58	100	0 (P = 0.435)
		Among populations	4	0
	CO2	Within populations	56	100	0 (P = 0.463)
		Among populations	4	0
	CR+CO2	Within populations	55	100	0 (P = 0.450)
		Among populations	4	0
G. a. allenbyi	CO2	Within populations	61	87	0.133 (P = 0.001)
		Among populations	7	13

All G. henleyi variation was explained by differences within populations, while 13% of the variation in G. a. allenbyi's CO2 region was explained by differences among populations. G. a. allenbyi's CR was not analyzed since there was no variance in these sequences.
