Offspring, dam, sire pedigree assignments in a managed population of Brown Treesnakes on Guam

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2021-10-25T00:00:00Z
In this dataset offspring are assigned to a dam and sire using information from single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from previously published pedigree reassignments of Brown Treesnakes within the U.S. Geological Survey's Brown Treesnake study enclosure on Northwest Field of Andersen Air Force Base, Guam (Levine and Yackel Adams 2021 and Nafus 2021) to update the overall pedigree dataset for snakes (2009-2018). Genomic pedigree reconstruction can assign offspring to parents in invasive species for which mating, and reproduction are difficult to study.
