Description

A re-sampling of historical population genetic surveys of Zostera marina from Bodega (BB), Tomales (TB), and San Francisco Bays (SFB) USA. Plant (Zostera marina) samples were collected from Bodega Bay, Tomales Bay, and San Francisco Bay in 2013. DNA was extracted and amplified in the Stachowicz and Grosberg labs at UCDavis, and fragments were analyzed at the UCDavis core facility during 2014-2015. Data are presented as number of base pairs.

Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Both sampling and analyses are described in the manuscript in press in the journal Heredity, titled "Temporal stability in patterns of genetic diversity and structure of a marine foundation species (Zostera marina)".

Briefly, we re-sampled Z. marina populations previously described genetically in the literature. Because the goal of sampling these populations was to compare changes over time within each region, we designed the re-sampling to match the previously published studies as closely as possible. Consequently, sampling schemes (haphazard collection (SFB) vs. quadrat sampling (TB and BB)) differed between regions. DNA from all samples was analyzed at 12 microsatellite loci.

Data Processing Description

Dataset Processing Description

We amplified 12 previously characterized microsatellite loci (CT12, CT19 (Reusch 2000), CT3, GA2, GA3 (Reusch et al. 1999), CL32 Contig 2, ZMC 12075, ZMC 13053, ZMC 19017, (Oetjen & Reusch 2007), CL 559 Contig 1, CL172 Contig 1, ZMC 19062 (Oetjen et al. 2010)). We analyzed fragments on an ABI 3010XL at the UC Davis DNA sequencing facility, and visualized the fragments using STRand software (Toonen & Hughes 2001).

BCO-DMO Processing:
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions; appended "a1" (allele 1) or "a2" (allele 2).
- added columns containing the full name/meaning for region, meadow, and tidal height codes.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Automated DNA Sequencer

Acronym: Automated Sequencer

Generic Description:

General term for a laboratory instrument used for deciphering the order of bases in a strand of DNA. Sanger sequencers detect fluorescence from different dyes that are used to identify the A, C, G, and T extension reactions. Contemporary or Pyrosequencer methods are based on detecting the activity of DNA polymerase (a DNA synthesizing enzyme) with another chemoluminescent enzyme. Essentially, the method allows sequencing of a single strand of DNA by synthesizing the complementary strand along it, one base pair at a time, and detecting which base was actually added at each step.
