Data from: Evolution of almond genetic diversity and farmer practices in Lebanon: Impacts of the diffusion of a graft-propagated cultivar in a traditional system based on seed-propagation

We sampled a large range of cultivated individuals from different agro-climatic areas in Lebanon, and analyzed them with a set of 15 SSRs markers selected for their producibility and polymorphism in almond and other Prunus species.The most common and oldest cultivar is known as 'Khachabi', it has been cultivated by seeds. The other cultivar called 'Halwani', probably introduced last century, it has been widely propagated by grafts.
