The data file consists of microsatellite allele lengths for 11 high informative microsatellites loci described in the paper

A data set based on 11 high informative microsatellites loci genotypes from nine populations was used to estimate the population genetic parameters. The first column is the data file of each individuals organized in rows, whereas the abbreviation name of the goat populations in the second column. The subsequent columns correspond to microsatellite data (two columns per locus). The markers in color were excluded from further analysis. Missing data are coded by zero. Abbreviations for the names of the goat populations as follows: Jabal Akhdar (JKH), Batinah (BTN), Dhofar (DHR), Ash Sharqiyah (SHR), Musandam (MSN), Somalia (SOM), Iran (IRN), Pakistan (PAK) and India (IND).
