DArTSeq data on within accessions diversity of sorghum germplasm

This data set contains DArTSeq data of sorghum landraces (31) and wild (5) accessions, and 15 individuals within each accession were genotyped. The main objectives of this experiment were (i) to investigate the extent of diversity within and among accessions using DArTSeq derived SNPs, and (ii) to assess the minimum sample (population) size required to capture 95% of the alleles with an expected probability of 95%, from the least frequent allele or the frequency of the rarest allele for each accession. Data is in the DArT format as provided by Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT), Australia. The scope of this study aims to benefit genebank curators in understanding the dynamics of the population within and among accessions and devising proper sampling strategies (sample size) while regeneration, for effective genebank management and their utilization in crop improvement.
