Molecular evolution and population genetics of a Gram-negative binding protein gene in the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae (sensu lato)

Table 3 Partition of genetic variation based on conventional F-statistic from haplotype frequencies (AMOVA) for Anopheles gambiae (s.s.) and A. coluzzii over six African countries

Tested groups	Source of variation	Degrees of freedom	% of variation	P-value
Two species [An. coluzzii & An. gambiae (s.s.)]	Among groups	1	0.14	ns*
	Among populations within groups	7	1.75	0.006
	Within populations	61	98.11	0.001
Two geographical regions (W & E)	Among groups	1	2.26	0.030
	Among populations within groups	7	0.86	ns
	Within populations	61	96.89	0.002
Three geographical regions (W & E & Angola)	Among groups	2	2.75	0.004
