Data from: Recommendations for population and individual diagnostic SNP selection in non-model species

Despite substantial reductions in the cost of sequencing over the last
decade, genetic panels remain relevant due to their cost-effectiveness and
flexibility across a variety of sample types. In particular, single
nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels are increasingly favored for
conservation applications. SNP panels are often used because of their
adaptability, effectiveness with low-quality samples, and cost-efficiency
for use in population monitoring and forensics. However, the selection of
diagnostic SNPs for population assignment and individual identification
can be challenging. The consequences of poor SNP selection are
under-powered panels, inaccurate results, and monetary loss. Here, we
develop a novel user-friendly SNP selection pipeline for population
assignment and individual identification, mPCRselect. mPCRselect allows
any researcher, who has sufficient SNP-level data, to design a successful
and cost-effective SNP panel for species of conservation concern.
