| Appendix B. Representative polar plot maps of genotypic diversity within populations of Acropora palmata. Each colored symbol represents a sampled ramet. For each plot, ramets of the same genet indicated by common symbol and color. In cases where two plots were sampled on the same reef (B and C, D and E) the same symbol and color code was used to enable identification of genets that were present in both plots per reef. Radial axis: distance in (m), angular axis: angle in degrees. (A) Bock Cay, Bahamas, N = 23, Ng = 8; (B) Awa Blanca I, Curaçao, N = 21, Ng = 16; (C) Awa Blanca II, Curaçao, N = 22, Ng = 12; (D) Hawksnest Bay I, US Virgin Islands, N = 22, Ng = 8; (E) Hawksnest Bay II, US Virgin Islands, N = 24, Ng = 9; (F) Sand Island, Florida, N = 39, Ng = 12. N = number of colonies sampled, Ng = number of multilocus genotypes (genets). |
