Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies: QIN wild pandas

Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies: QXL wild pandas

Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group: Only 1864 wild giant pandas are extant and are distributed in six mountain ranges including the Qinling (QIN), Minshan (MIN), Qionglai (QIO), Daxiangling (DXL), Xiaoxiangling (XXL), and Liangshan (LSH) mountains that can be classified into three genetic populations including the QIN, MIN, and QIO-DXL-XXL-LSH (QXL) populations
