Cluster analysis
(
Fig. 2
).
Constructed dendrogram by hierarchical cluster analysis divides the sampling localities into two main clusters, which further split into sub-clusters. The first sub-cluster includes
Ardebil, West Azerbaijan, East Azerbaijan and Isfahan
. The second one is separated into two branches, including (1)
Mazandaran, Guilan, Golestan, Tehran
and Boyer-Ahmad and (2)
Khorasan and Khuzestan
on another branch.
Fars Province
is not included in either of the two major clusters (

).
