Abstract

Adult shoots and seedings of the ribbon weed (Posidonia australis Hook.f.), a widespread temperate seagrass, were sampled from four meadows around Rottnest Island, Western Australia. The data set contains multilocus genotypes for adult shoots from four meadows and seedlings from three meadows over two consecutive years. The metadata file contains: Pop number (1 – 10), Sample site, Latitude (S), Longitude (E), individual sample code, year of sampling, life stage (adult shoot or seedling), genotypes (2 columns per locus). The seven polymorphic microsatellite loci are: PaA1, PaA105, PaA120, PaB6, PaB8, PaB112, PaD113. Most genotypes are diploid, however, 3N genotypes are included.
