GENOME SCALE POPULATION STRUCTURE OF HIGH LATITUDE KELP REVEALS MULTIPLE GLACIAL REFUGIAL ORIGINS, ANCIENT MIXING, AND POTENTIAL SELECTIVE SWEEPS

Presented here are files related the genome assembly of the kelp Alaria esculenta using long and short read data, and population genomic analysis of North Atlantic populations. The specific files are:

Alaria esculenta draft genome:

alaria_v3.fasta: Final assembly contigs

alaria_v3.gff3: Final assembly annotations

Population genomic analyses:

A_esculenta_coverage_exon-gene_annotations_30vi22.xlsx: presents exon coverage values for each population. Note, coverage is standardized within each sample for expected coverage of single copy orthologues; 0=missing, 1=expected coverage, >1=greater coverage relative to single copy orthologues (where 2=2x, 3=3x, ect).
