The 268 samples yielded an average of 7.0 million paired reads per
individual (range: 0.03 – 23.5). Twenty-nine individuals were removed
due to a significant amount of missing data (≥ 60%) or low coverage (≤
9.5×). After filtering, the final dataset contained 229 individuals from
29 populations and included 102,144 SNPs on 58,372 polymorphic loci,
with an average coverage of 27× and 32% missing data.
