<p>METHODOLOGY</p>

<p> </p>

<p>DESCRIBE THE PROCESS OF COLLECTING AND GENERATING
YOUR DATA</p>

<p> </p>

<p> After
collection of samples, DNA was extracted from the samples at University of
South-eastern Norway. Followed by SNP genotyping using qPCR to collect SNP
database for all the available beaver samples. </p>

<p> </p>

<p> We
used Applied Bioscience’s StepOne qPCR machine for SNP genotyping. For data
visualization and analysis software programs such as, GenAlEx, Cervus,
Co-ancestry, ML-relate etc. were used. </p>

<p> </p>

<p> The
current data uploaded is the raw SNP database, used for parentage analysis. The
data can be visualized using Microsoft Excel. </p>
