Whole-Genome Sequencing Data for 64 Mango Accessions from Jazan, Saudi Arabia

5,079,569 high-quality SNPs reveal the genomic diversity of 64 mango accessions from Saudi Arabia's primary production region. The dataset, authored by Naser B. Almarri and updated in May 2026, includes a compact 150-SNP fingerprinting panel designed for cultivar identification. Population structure analysis resolved three genetically differentiated ancestry groups, reflecting a complex introduction history.

Use Cases

• Conducting population genetics analysis based on genome-wide SNP data
• Designing marker-assisted breeding programs based on identified genetic diversity
• Authenticating mango cultivars and detecting redundancy using the 150-SNP fingerprinting panel
• Prioritizing germplasm for conservation based on genetic structure and diversity metrics

Strengths

• Contains 5,079,569 high-quality SNPs after stringent quality control
• Includes a validated 150-SNP panel with a probability of identity of 5.25 × 10^-91 for distinguishing all 64 accessions
• Population structure analysis resolved three distinct genetic clusters with pairwise FST values from 0.048 to 0.089

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for specific analyses
