Papilio Butterfly Hybrid Incompatibility Mapping Data for Polygenic Mechanisms

Source data and scripts supporting figures in a study on polygenic hybrid incompatibility mechanisms in Papilio and Heliconius butterflies. The dataset includes genomic mapping data, confocal microscopy images, and analysis scripts from Harvard University researcher Tianzhu Xiong. The data is associated with a GitHub repository and a published paper.

Use Cases

• Mapping hybrid incompatibility loci based on genomic data referenced for figures 1, 3, and 4.
• Analyzing confocal microscopy images of butterfly tissues based on the raw and edited image data for figure 2.
• Reproducing statistical analyses of ovary dysgenesis QTL data from Heliconius butterflies mentioned for figure 4.
• Benchmarking genomic mapping pipelines using the provided JupyterLab notebooks.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to specific figures in a research publication, supporting reproducibility.
• Includes both raw and edited versions of confocal microscopy images.
• Associated analysis code is provided in JupyterLab notebooks.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Row count, column names, and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data organization is tied to specific figure panels, which may complicate holistic analysis.
