N, number of chromosomes analysed.
Haplotypes are in the order of: intron 3–codon 72–intron 6.
1 at an individual locus indicates the absence of a 16 bp duplication at intron 3, a proline at Bst UI, and the absence of Nci I at intron 6.
2 at individual locus indicates the presence of a 16 bp duplication at intron 3, an arginine at Bst UI, and the presence of Nci I at intron 6.
