# Title of Dataset: Data set for sperm storage of squid, *Todarodes pacificus* README --- Female body size and paternity analysis data are summarized in Sheet 1 (Body size) and in Sheets 2(TP1), 3(TP2), and 4(TP3). ## Description of the Data and file structure Sheet 1 shows the female body size and characters about sperm storage. Sheets 2, 3, and 4 shows that the genotyping data of hatchings fertilized artificially by sperm squeezed from each seminal receptacle. TP14, 21, 34, and 36 are name of loci. Variable List and Units of measurement: 1. Sheet1 (Body size) Column A: Animal ID Column B: Seasonal group Column C: Dorsal Mantle Length (mm) Column D: Body weight (g) Column E: The number of Seminal receptacles (SR) Column F: The number of attached spermatangia (Spt) 2. Sheet2(TP1), 3(TP2), and 4(TP3) Column A: Genotyping ID (F: a mother used for artificial fertilization. Sperm: attached spermatangium, SR: seminal receptacle storing sperm used for artificial fertilization.) Column B: 1st allele of Tp14 Column C: 2nd allele of Tp14 Column D: 1st allele of Tp21 Column E: 2nd allele of Tp21 Column F: 1st allele of Tp34 Column G: 2nd allele of Tp34 Column H: 1st allele of Tp36 Column F: 2nd allele of Tp36 ## Sharing/access Information Links to other publicly accessible locations of the data: There are no links Was data derived from another source?
