  1. Results of AMOVA (concatenated data, Tamura and Nei; gamma = 0.2487) testing for differences between Montagu's harrier populations and geographic areas. The analysis partitions out total molecular variance into different components, and statistical significance is obtained by randomization after 5000 permutations. Significant differences between groups are shown in bold.
