Barramundi Scale Drop Disease Virus Outbreak Data with Genomic and Phenotypic Records

Vu Nguyen's dataset on figshare provides genomic and phenotypic data from a scale drop disease virus outbreak in sea farms. It includes phenotypic data for over 4000 barramundi fish and genotyping data for nearly 5000 filtered SNPs. The dataset was last updated on April 23, 2026.

Use Cases

• Identify genetic markers for disease resistance based on the nearly 5000 SNP genotypes.
• Analyze phenotypic outcomes of scale drop disease infection across a population of over 4000 fish.
• Conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) linking genomic data to health status.
• Model disease outbreak patterns in aquaculture settings using combined genomic and health records.

Strengths

• Includes phenotypic data for a large cohort of over 4000 barramundi fish.
• Provides genotyping data for nearly 5000 filtered SNPs, offering substantial genetic coverage.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for broad reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for specific modeling tasks.
• The description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
