Fig. 2. Scatter plots and ordinary least square regression of genetic differentiation (F_ST/1 - F_ST) against (A) natural logarithm (ln) of the shortest geographic distance between sites; (B) downcurrent distance between sites. Analyses included three NAFO Subareas (0, 1, 4). Full circles refer to within-year pairwise comparisons. Dotted lines indicate the linear fit for all data points; continuous lines indicate the linear fit for full circles only. Mantel’s correlation test for (A) all data points, r = -0.078, p = 0.51; within-year pairwise comparisons, r = -0.182, p = 0.50; and (B) all data points, r = -0.126, p = 0.28; within-year pairwise comparisons, r = -0.396, p = 0.13.
