Figure 2

Estimated population structure for L. (L.) major from Pakistan as inferred by STRUCTURE software based on the data for 10 microsatellite markers obtained for the 66 L. (L.) major DNA samples studied herein. Each strain is represented by a single vertical line divided into K colours, where K is the number of populations assumed. Each colour represents one population, and the length of the colours segment shows the strain’s estimated proportion of membership in that population. The derived graph for ΔK shows at K = 2, indicating the existence of two populations in the investigated strain set.
