Genetic Diversity Estimates for Molecular Markers and Concatenated COI-CYTB Dataset

Mateo Vinueza Guarderas provides estimates of heterozygosity, nucleotide diversity, and haplotype diversity for multiple genetic markers. The dataset includes values for each marker and a concatenated COI-CYTB dataset, with total and subpopulation heterozygosity reported specifically for the biallelic nuclear marker ITS2. It is a 5.5 KB Excel file last updated on 2026-05-18.

Use Cases

• Calculate population genetic statistics based on reported heterozygosity and diversity estimates.
• Compare genetic diversity across different molecular markers mentioned in the description.
• Analyze subpopulation structure based on heterozygosity values reported for the ITS2 marker.
• Assess haplotype diversity for mitochondrial genes COI and CYTB, both individually and concatenated.

Strengths

• Data is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
• Focuses on specific, standardized genetic diversity metrics like heterozygosity and nucleotide diversity.
• Includes analysis for a concatenated dataset combining COI and CYTB markers.

Limitations

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