  • Dataset Abstract
    Fragment sizes for 17 microsatellite markers obtained from samples of Cichlasoma urophthalmus collected from fin clippings of fish caught by angling and/or cast netting within the Florida Everglades and Central America. DNA was extracted, amplified and sizes of microsatellite fragments were rounded to nearest unit. Data were used to determine population genetic structure using GenAlex, Structure and DIYABC programs.

  • Methods
    Sampling Description
    Samples were collected from fin clippings of fish caught by angling and/or cast netting. DNA was extracted, amplified and sizes of microsatellite fragments were rounded to nearest unit. Data were used to determine population genetic structure using GenAlex, Structure and DIYABC programs
