This dataset contains population genomic dataset Gafftopsail Catfish obtained aboard several vessels including the R/V Weatherbird II (WB1603) in the Gulf of Mexico from 2015-09-21 to 2017-09-03. The dataset consists of the metadata describing location, size, date of capture and other pertinent information associated with sequenced individuals. The dataset also includes genepop files which will have the multilocus genotype of every individuals sampled. Every individual has a unique identifier present in the metadata and the genpop file allowing users to cross reference information. The dataset contains the date, latitudes and longitudes of the sampling location.
