Genotypes of bears from Slovenia

The dataset contains genotypes of 510 brown bears genotyped on 22 microsatellite loci. They were obtained by genotyping tissue samples of legally killed bears between 2003 and 2008. Genotype on locus G10H is unrealiable (genotyping problems), and locus Mu26 has null alleles. Both were excluded from...

Description
Summary:The dataset contains genotypes of 510 brown bears genotyped on 22 microsatellite loci. They were obtained by genotyping tissue samples of legally killed bears between 2003 and 2008. Genotype on locus G10H is unrealiable (genotyping problems), and locus Mu26 has null alleles. Both were excluded from analysis, and have some missing data. All genotypes are complete on all other loci. Additional information is the age data (determined by tooth cross-section), sex and the date of mortality. Columns in the table: sample - laboratory name of the sample; sex - sex of the animal (recorded by the field crew and rechecked by genotyping the SRY marker); date_killed - the date on which the animal was killed; born - year of birth, estimated using the age data; age_months - age of the animal in months, calculated from the age determined by tooth cross-section, Feb 1 as the birthday and the recorded date of death. Genotypes: alleles at each locus are recorded in two columns, e.g. Cxx20_1, Cxx20_2. Missing data at loci G10H and Mu26 are recorded as "NA".
