Abatus Microsatellites data set

The present data set corresponds to the genotypes for seven microsatellite markers for three Antarctic sea urchin species of the genus Abatus. Sea urchin individuals were collected in five sites separated by up to 5 km in the near-shore area surrounding Davis Station in the Vestfold Hills Region, East Antarctica. For each microsatellite loci, the size of each allele was scored (in base pairs) using the CEQ 8000 Genetic Analysis System software v.8.0. Fragments were separated on an automated sequencer (CEQ 8000, Beckman Coulter) in the Central Science Laboratory at University of Tasmania.

本数据集对应南极Abatus属3种海胆的7个微卫星标记（microsatellite marker）的基因型数据。实验所用海胆个体采集于南极东部福尔德丘陵地区戴维斯站周边近岸区域的5个采样点，各采样点间最大间距为5千米。针对每个微卫星位点，研究人员使用CEQ 8000遗传分析系统v8.0版本软件，以碱基对为单位对每个等位基因的长度完成了分型计分。扩增得到的DNA片段于塔斯马尼亚大学中央科学实验室，通过自动化测序仪（CEQ 8000，贝克曼库尔特）完成分离。
