Polar Bear Microsatellite Data Southern Beaufort Sea 2010-2023 Polar Bear Microsatellite Data Southern Beaufort Sea 2010-2023
This data set provides polar bear microsatellite genotypes derived from twenty loci (CPH9, CXX20, CXX110, CXX173, G1A, G10B, G10C, G1D, G10H, G10J, G10L, G10M, G10P, G10U, G10X, MU50, MU51, MU59, MSUT2, 145P07). Blood, buccal swab, skin, and hair samples for microsatellite genetic analysis were collected from polar bears from the Southern Beaufort Sea between 1981 and 2023. Blood, buccal...
Genomic Data from Gray-headed Chickadee and Boreal Chickadee Genomic Data from Gray-headed Chickadee and Boreal Chickadee
This dataset provides sample data and NCBI accession information for genomic sequencing of Gray-headed Chickadee and Boreal Chickadee from North America and Russia.
Genotype Data for Population Genetic Study of Emperor Geese (Anser canagicus) in Alaska Genotype Data for Population Genetic Study of Emperor Geese (Anser canagicus) in Alaska
This data release includes genotype data for 210 Emperor Geese collected on their breeding grounds in Alaska, specifically the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta and the Seward Peninsula, from 2007-2022. The samples were sequenced with restriction site-associated sequencing (RAD-seq), and genotyped at 44,648 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
Genetic Data for Evaluating Morphology Use to Identify Hunter-Harvested Geese Genetic Data for Evaluating Morphology Use to Identify Hunter-Harvested Geese
This data release contains one table of genetic data (mitochondrial haplotypes and nuclear microsatellite genotypes) used to evaluate utility of two morphological measures (culmen length and plumage color) to correctly identify groups of hunter-harvested dusky (Branta canadensis occidentalis) and dusky-like Canada geese on wintering grounds within the Pacific Flyway of North America...
Data for Assessing the Utility of eDNA Approaches for Determining the Impacts of Metal Mobilization from Thawing Permafrost on Fish Communities in Arctic Streams Data for Assessing the Utility of eDNA Approaches for Determining the Impacts of Metal Mobilization from Thawing Permafrost on Fish Communities in Arctic Streams
This data set describes results for laboratory experiments to determine the efficacy of environmental DNA quantitative PCR assays for four fish species when applied to filtered water samples containing metals mobilized from thawing permafrost.
Macoma Clam Prey Identified by DNA Metabarcoding, 2018 and 2019, Alaska Macoma Clam Prey Identified by DNA Metabarcoding, 2018 and 2019, Alaska
This dataset describes sequence data derived from 18S ribosomal and ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcL) DNA. Stomach contents from 190 Macoma calcarea clams were examined for this study. Clams were collected from the Bering Sea and Chukchi Sea, Alaska in 2018 and 2019 using benthic van Veen grabs.
Data for Characterization of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Surface Waters in Two National Parks in Alaska Data for Characterization of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Surface Waters in Two National Parks in Alaska
This data set describes the assessment of surface waters in Denali National Park and Preserve and Wrangell St. Elias National Park and Preserve for antimicrobial resistance genes during four summer months (May - August).
Data for Investigation of Egg Mortality in a Louisiana Population of Endangered Whooping Cranes Data for Investigation of Egg Mortality in a Louisiana Population of Endangered Whooping Cranes
This data set describes the genomic bacterial analysis of swabs and tissues collected from whooping cranes in Louisiana. The data includes targeted analysis from quantitative PCR for bacterial pathogens.
Validation and Application of a Standardized Quantitative PCR Assay for the Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes Validation and Application of a Standardized Quantitative PCR Assay for the Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes
This data set describes results for two laboratory experiments to validate a quantitative PCR assay for the assessment of antimicrobial resistance genes in surface waters. Data are also provided for the application of the assay surface water samples collected from three national parks in Alaska.
Genetic Data Used to Develop a Genotyping-in-Thousands by Sequencing (GT-seq) Panel for Identifying Individuals and Estimating Relatedness in Alaska Black Bears (Ursus americanus) Genetic Data Used to Develop a Genotyping-in-Thousands by Sequencing (GT-seq) Panel for Identifying Individuals and Estimating Relatedness in Alaska Black Bears (Ursus americanus)
This data package includes genotype data for two independent sets of American black bear (Ursus americanus) samples. The first set of samples was collected from 85 adult bears harvested by permitted hunters in southcentral Alaska from 1994-2019; we hereafter refer to these as "hunter-harvested" samples. These hunter-harvested samples were genotyped with restriction site-associated...
Data for Genomic Characterization of Highly Pathogenic H5 Avian Influenza Viruses from Alaska in 2022 Data for Genomic Characterization of Highly Pathogenic H5 Avian Influenza Viruses from Alaska in 2022
This data set describes genomic sequence information from 2022 used to infer spatiotemporal trends pertaining to the introductions of highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza viruses into Alaska and spread among wild birds, backyard poultry, and mammals.
