Data for: Population dynamics of the Lyme disease bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, during rapid range expansion in New York State

Description

Tick collection data, raw ospC typing data, and R code used for data analyses and figure generation for the manuscript "Population dynamics of the Lyme disease bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, during rapid range expansion in New York State" submitted to Molecular Ecology. Tick collection data indicate the sites that were included in the study and shows the number of ticks that were collected, tested for B. burgdorferi, and positive for B. burgdorferi for each site and year that collections took place. OspC typing data show the number of ticks from which ospC was successfully amplified and the number of ticks that were positive for each ospC genotype in each of the 79 site-years included in the study. R code shows the script used for analyses and figure generation in the R environment.
