Table 2 Pairwise comparisons based on parameters in the three B. schroederi populations

Population 1	Population 2	Nm	Fst	Dxy	Da
Minshan	Qinling	9.68 ^a	0.02519 ^a	0.00182	0.00005
Minshan	Qionglai	12.83 ^a	0.01911 ^a	0.00189	0.00004
Qionglai	Qinling	8.45 ^a	0.02875 ^a	0.00221	0.00006

Nm, pairwise comparisons based on gene flow; Fst, genetic variance contained in a subpopulation relative to the total genetic variance; Dxy, nucleotide divergence; Da, net genetic distance for the three populations of B. schroederi collected from giant pandas inhabiting different mountain ranges; a, no significance.
