This project was designed to describe fine-scale population genetic differentiation of the stream salamander Gryinophilus porphyriticus among five study streams in the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest. Additionally, the data are paired with intensive capture-recapture data to assess direct fitness effects of individual genetic diversity. Specifically, the data were used to investigate effects of individual multilocus heterozygosity on survival during metamorphosis, a sensitive life stage in aquatic salamanders.
This dataset publishes a manifest of the genomic sequence reads submitted to NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA). These samples are published at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) under the BioProject ID 1090913 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/1090913). The tables here include sample metadata and the NCBI URLs to each sample.
These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
