Genome-wide linkage disequilibrium and genetic diversity in five populations of Australian domestic sheep

Table 1 Genetic diversity within the five sheep populations studied

	F _ST				% of polymorphic SNPs	H _e	H _o
	PD	MER	BxM	BxMxP	% of polymorphic SNPs	H _e	H _o
BL	0.053	0.062	0.019	0.033	99.21	0.30	0.30
PD		0.053	0.036	0.016	98.74	0.34	0.34
MER			0.045	0.043	99.86	0.38	0.38
BxM				0.013	99.89	0.37	0.403
BxMxP					99.96	0.38	0.404

H _e expected heterozygosity
H _o observed heterozygosity
For each SNP and for each breed, H _e, Ho, and F _ST were estimated and averaged
