Procrustes-aligned landmark coordinates - Dog mandibles (Canis lupus familiaris)

This dataset contains the Procrustes-aligned landmark coordinates, principal component (PC) scores, and covariance matrices derived from the geometric morphometric analysis of 168 adult mesocephalic dog mandibles (Canis lupus familiaris). The file includes the full Procrustes coordinate matrix used for shape analyses, the associated centroid size data, the PC scores obtained from the Generalized Procrustes Analysis (GPA), and the covariance structure employed for modularity and integration testing. All data were generated in MorphoJ (v.1.07a) and RStudio (v.4.2.0) using the geomorphpackage. The dataset supports the results presented in the manuscript “Mandibular morphological variation and modularity in adult mesocephalic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) revealed by geometric morphometrics” by R. Contreras and P. Salinas
