Multilocus microsatellite genotypes of Acropora palmata from the Caribbean and North-West Atlantic from 2015-2016 (Coral Hybridization project)

Abstract

Genotypes for the coral, Acropora palmata collected throughout the Caribbean from five microsatellite loci . A. palmata is a diploid species, however, somatic mutations in the form of third and fourth alleles per locus are occasionally detected. Data are in columns of region, database_id, genet_id, mutant_id, locus, allele, and size_bp. These data were deposited in DRYAD: http://dx.doi.org/10.5061/dryad.f6600 and published in the paper Devlin-Durante et al, Mol Ecol. (2016).

For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/666350
