Why do coastal seeds fail? Evidence of local adaptation of northern red oak ( Quercus rubra ) in Minnesota coastal forests - Genomics and Geospatial Data

Genomic and Geospatial data for 30 northern red oak (Quercus rubra) used in a study to identify population structure and investigate poor performance of coastal seeds. We used restriction site associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) of 358 northern red oak (Quercus rubra) leaf tissue samples from trees across the state of Minnesota and 45 northern pin oak (Quercus ellipsoidalis) leaf tissue samples used as outgroups. We used the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources releve data, to identify populations across the state of Minnesota that had presence of Q. rubra trees.
