Full diversity statistics for each locus are given in Additional file 8 and statistical differences in genetic diversity are given in Additional file 3. ^aHeadings in bold indicate different catchments; ^bEstradiol equivalents, the predicted average estrogenicity at the sample site, calculated from the predicted concentrations of E₁, E₂ and EE_2;^cTPM = two phase model for microsatellite evolution used for this test; ^dSource of samples; ^eA composite sample of fish caught at BlaEve (51.354119, -0.8584853) and BlaHaw (51.324119, -0.7665606). Effluent concentrations are an average between the two sites for statistical analysis;
^fNM = not modelled. For this site there are no major upstream discharges. For statistical analysis, and average E₂Eq value for sites with no major discharges was used. ^gThe exact locations for these sample sites are unknown. Numbers in bold indicate significance (p ≤ 0.05).
