  <!-- Key scope #1 -->
  <topicgroup keyscope="scope-1">
    <keydef keys="key-1" href="topic-1.dita"/>
    <topicref keyref="key-1"/>
    <topicref keyref="scope-1.key-1"/>
    <topicref keyref="scope-2.key-1"/>
  </topicgroup>

For this example, the effective key definitions are listed in the following tables.
Table 2. Effective key definitions for scope-1
Key reference  | Resource  | 
|---|
key-1  | topic-1.dita  | 
scope-1.key-1  | topic-1.dita  | 
scope-2.key-1  | topic-2.dita  | 
Table 3. Effective key definitions for scope-2
Key reference  | Resource  | 
|---|
key-1  | topic-2.dita  | 
scope-1.key-1  | topic-1.dita  | 
scope-2.key-1  | topic-2.dita  | 
Table 4. Effective key definitions for the key scope associated with the root map
Key reference  | Resource  |
