Data from: Inversions dominate evolution in the European Sardine (Sardina pilchardus) amid strong gene flow

Abstract

This dataset contains genomic resources associated with a study of chromosomal inversions and population structure in the European sardine (Sardina pilchardus). It includes whole-genome resequencing data, variant call files (VCFs), inferred genotypes for structural variants, and associated metadata across multiple populations spanning the species’ range. These data were used to identify large chromosomal inversions and assess their role in maintaining genetic differentiation amid high gene flow. The resources support future analyses of structural variation, local adaptation, and demographic history in marine fishes.
