Table 3 Statistical associations between allele frequencies and a set of three explanatory variables (TEMP, temperature; LAT, latitude; LON, longitude) assessed using generalized linear models (GLM) and BAYENV based on the full data set with 8 locations (78 loci) and a reduced data set with 7 locations (80 loci)

From: Do North Atlantic eels show parallel patterns of spatially varying selection?
