Gridded 20-Year Parameterization of a Stochastic Weather Generator (CLIGEN) to Fill Gaps in Coverage South of the 40th Parallel

    CLImate GENerator (CLIGEN) is a stochastic weather generator that produces daily and sub-daily timeseries of weather variables. This gridded CLIGEN parameterization complements existing coverage for South America and Africa by adding new coverage for Central America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and various islands.

    Data from: Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of the USDA Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) Germplasm Collections Using GBSpoly

      Population structure and genetic diversity of 417 USDA sweetpotato (*Ipomoea batatas*) accessions originating from 8 broad geographical regions (Africa, Australia, Caribbean, Central America, Far East, North America, Pacific Islands, and South America) were determined using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified with a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) protocol, GBSpoly, optimized for highly heterozygous and polyploid species.
