Scots pine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes for Axiom array validation
The dataset contains genotypes for samples used to validate a 50K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, DNA mutation) Axiom array for Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and closely related members of the Pinus mugo complex. Full details about this dataset can be found at

- Statement
- Samples & Validation of the array was carried out using a subset of 87 samples, which included four species of pine (Pinus sylvestris: SY; P. mugo: MU; P. uncinata: UN; P. uliginosa: UL). DNA was extracted from needles using a Qiagen DNeasy 96 kit following the manufacturer’s instructions. Needles were dried on silica gel prior to extraction and DNA was quantified using a Qubit spectrophotometer to ensure a minimum standardized concentration of 35ng/µl. The quality of genomic DNA was also checked visually for fragmentation on 1% agarose gel. Genotyping was done at Edinburgh Genomics following DNA amplification, fragmentation, chip hybridisation, single-base extension through DNA ligation and signal amplification performed according to the Affymetrix Axiom® Assay protocol. Genotyping was performed in 384-well format on a GeneTitan according to the manufacturer’s procedure. Genotype calls were performed using Axiom Analysis Suite software as recommended by the manufacturer (ThermoFisher). Samples were assigned to an analysis group based on their call rate (CR) and dish QC (DQC: a metric provided by ThermoFisher which is generated by measuring signals at multiple sites in the genome known not to vary among individuals), using the following thresholds: DQC 'high' ≥ 0.82; DQC 'low' < 0.82; CR 'high' ≥ 96; CR 'low' < 96. Analyses: 1) DQC high + CR high; 2) DQC high + CR low; 3) DQC low + CR low. High quality samples (N=529), with high CR and DQC, were used to set thresholds for allele calls. Posteriors for allele calls were subsequently used as priors for analyses 2 (N = 753) and 3 (N = 251).
