Sensitivity of RFLP and allozyme PGM markers for detecting the equatorial genetic break. The distance θ is plotted against the geographic distance between hydrothermal vent localities. The RFLP dataset shows a clearer departure from the isolation-by-distance model's expectation, indicating that markers to better detect the equatorial genetic break.
