Veríssimo et al_Molecular barcoding reveals patterns of egg predation in small pelagic fish
Description
The supplementary files made available here refer to nucleotide sequences generated with three distinct mitochondrial gene markers from fish egg samples obtained from the stomachs of two different predator species, the European sardine Sardina pilchardus and the Atlantic chub mackerel Scomber colias. Supplemental File 1 – Nucleotide sequences of the barcode COI (cytochrome oxidase subunit I) generated from single egg samples extracted from sardine and chub mackerel stomachs. Supplemental File 2 – Nucleotide sequences of the barcode cytb (cytochrome oxidase subunit I) generated from single egg samples extracted from sardine and chub mackerel stomachs. Supplemental File 3 – Nucleotide sequences of the barcode 12S (12S ribosomal RNA) generated from single egg samples extracted from sardine and chub mackerel stomachs. Supplemental File 4 – Amplicon sequence variants of the barcode 12S generated using the MiFish-U primers from bulk egg samples extracted from whole stomach contents of sardine and chub mackerel.
