More specific information is provided in 'ReadMe_EnvironmentData' and 'ReadMe_GenotypeData' regarding data files related to environmental data and genetic data, respectively. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Contents of data package (by subject): 1. Environmental data: Includes files 'MEC-12-0646_SampleData', 'MEC-12-0646_EnvironmentData', and 'MEC-12-0646_MyceliaSpatial' Description: These files provide environmental and spatial data associated with 10x10x10 cm soil blocks, and samples collected therein, that are summarized in the manuscript. For example, the depth (from forest floor surface) of each sample collected, depth range of visible Rhizopogon sp.-like mycelia, median depth of combined F, H layers of forest floor (organic horizon), and occurrence of forest floor substrates and vascular plant and bryophyte species are provided on a per-soil block basis. In addition, 'MyceliaSpatial' includes the mycelia density class of Rhizopogon vesiculosus/R. vinicolor mycelia in each soil block and soil layer with corresponding three-dimensional spatial coordinates. For more information regarding data presented in these files see: 'ReadMe_EnvironmentData' 2. Genetic data: Includes files 'MEC-12-0646_GenotypeData' and 'MEC-12-0646_PopData' Description: Rhizopogon spp. fungi and Douglas-fir tree microsatellite locus data, and genotype data formatted for population genetic analysis using GenAlEx version 4.61 or GENEPOP version 4.1.3.
