Data for: Population dynamics of the Lyme disease bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, during rapid range expansion in New York State

Tick collection data, raw ospC typing data, and R code used for data analyses and figure generation for the manuscript "Population dynamics of the Lyme disease bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, during rapid range expansion in New York State" submitted to Molecular Ecology. Tick collection data indicate the sites that were included in the study and shows the number of ticks that were collected, tested for B. burgdorferi, and positive for B. burgdorferi for each site and year that collections took place. OspC typing data show the number of ticks from which ospC was successfully amplified and the number of ticks that were positive for each ospC genotype in each of the 79 site-years included in the study. R code shows the script used for analyses and figure generation in the R environment.

本数据集包含蜱虫采集数据、原始ospC分型数据，以及用于投稿至《分子生态学》(Molecular Ecology)的论文《纽约州快速范围扩张期间莱姆病致病菌伯氏疏螺旋体（Borrelia burgdorferi）种群动态》的数据分析与图像生成所用的R代码。蜱虫采集数据则记录了本研究纳入的所有采样位点，并展示了各采样年份下每个位点的采集蜱虫总数、经伯氏疏螺旋体检测的蜱虫数量，以及伯氏疏螺旋体检测呈阳性的蜱虫数量。ospC分型数据则展示了本研究纳入的79个采样年份-位点组合中，成功扩增出ospC基因的蜱虫数量，以及每种ospC基因型呈阳性的蜱虫数量。R代码包含R环境下用于数据分析与图像生成的脚本。
