Results of SaSii analyses for SSR (top) and SNP (bottom) simulated data.
Only the smallest subsample sizes are shown. A, E: Amount of individuals with more than 95% of alleles detected; B, F: mean difference of allele frequencies between the sampled populations and the original dataset; C, G: mean pairwise FST between the original and the simulated datasets; D, H: mean of expected heterozygosity of populations within a same class (same population and sample size).

Characteristics of the datasets used to estimate minimum sample size.

Results of SaSii analyses for Bertholletia excelsa and Casearia sylvestris datasets.
A,E: proportion of common alleles detected in each subsample; B,F: mean difference of allele frequency between the sampled populations and the empirical dataset; C,G: mean pairwise FST between subsample and complete dataset; D,H: mean difference in HE estimates between subsamples and the complete dataset.
