Table 1 Genetic diversity across 15 microsatellite loci within all adults (n = 155) and offspring (n = 1105). Number of observed alleles(N_a), number of effective alleles(N_e), Shannon’s information index (I), and, observed (H_o) and expected (H_e) heterozygosity, inbreeding coefficient (F_is), and Pr (Ex2), paternity exclusion probability of the first [Pr (Ex1)] and second [Pr (Ex2)] parent. Highly significant departure from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) are indicated with asterisks (^***p < 0.001, ^** p < 0.01, ^* p < 0.05)
