Figure 2 Computer-based comparison of the first AFLP fingerprint with the subsequent five reproducibility experiments (see Figure 1). Percentages of similarity were calculated as Pearson correlation (black bars), Dice coefficients including all bands (hatched bars), and Dice coefficients ignoring uncertain bands (empty bars).
