figure 3 Genetic structure and distribution of the Italian otter genotypes in the study area. A) Estimated population structure based on the analysis of 11 microsatellite loci according to STRUCTURE (K = 5). Each bar represents a sample analysed. B) Geographic visualisation of genotypes in the study area performed using QGIS 3.4.1 software with base layers acquired from http://www.pnc.miniambiente. it/. Each circle represents a sample analysed. The colours indicate the percentage of assignment of an individual to each cluster: in blue, K1; in green, K2; in orange, K3; in red, K4; in violet, K5. The bold blue lines highlight the main rivers, while the tiny blue lines show all other waterways.
