Historical coarse mapping has indicated extensive beds of Posidonia, Amphibolis, Heterozostera, and Zostera species, potentially comprising some of the largest and deepest seagrass extents found in temperate Australian waters. However, limited data on the distribution and ecological value of these seagrass habitats represents a significant knowledge gap in understanding Australia's wetland natural assets.This project mapped the extent, ecological composition, population structure, and blue carbon value of seagrass beds around Tayaritja, in partnership with the Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre. This record specifically describes the seagrass population genetics component of the project.Leaf tissue samples were collected from four seagrass species: Amphibolis antarctica, Heterozostera nigricaulis, Posidonia australis and Zostera muelleri. Samples were collected from multiple sites around Tayaritja Sea Country and processed for genome-wide SNP genotyping using the DArTseq platform. The dataset includes population-level genetic summary statistics, associated DArT metadata and reports, and raw sequence data used to support assessment of genetic diversity, clonality, population structure and connectivity among sampled seagrass populations.See the Lineage section of this record for full methodology.***EMBARGO NOTE*** Data is currently embargoed until 31/12/2026.

Sampling targeted four seagrass species: Amphibolis antarctica, Heterozostera nigricaulis, Posidonia australis and Zostera muelleri. Samples were collected from eight different sites, with 15-25 replicate leaf samples collected within each sampled population. Sampling was undertaken across an approximately 20 m x 20 m area at each site, with a minimum distance of 2 m between samples to reduce the likelihood of repeatedly sampling the same ramet. A subset of samples was selected for DNA extraction and SNP genotyping by Diversity Arrays Technologies Pty Ltd using the DArTseq platform. The resulting SNP data were filtered and analysed in R to assess genetic diversity, clonality and population structure. Multilocus genotypes were identified for each sampled population, and clonal richness was calculated to indicate the proportion of sampled individuals represented by unique genotypes. Population-level summary statistics were derived for each species and sampled population, including numbers of sampled individuals, multilocus genotypes, clonal richness, loci, polymorphic loci, percentage polymorphic loci, observed and expected heterozygosity, inbreeding coefficient and levels of genetic differentiation among populations for each species (global FST). This record provides access to the population-level genetics summary data, DArT metadata and report outputs, and raw sequence data. Further details on laboratory processing, SNP filtering and population genetic analyses are provided in the final project report.&rft.creator=Sherman, Craig &rft.creator=Lucieer, Vanessa

Full description

Seagrass beds are a dominant marine ecosystem of Tayaritja (the Furneaux Group of Islands) in the north-eastern waters off Tasmania. Historical coarse mapping has indicated extensive beds of Posidonia, Amphibolis, Heterozostera, and Zostera species, potentially comprising some of the largest and deepest seagrass extents found in temperate Australian waters. However, limited data on the distribution and ecological value of these seagrass habitats represents a significant knowledge gap in understanding Australia's wetland natural assets.

This project mapped the extent, ecological composition, population structure, and blue carbon value of seagrass beds around Tayaritja, in partnership with the Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre. This record specifically describes the seagrass population genetics component of the project.

Leaf tissue samples were collected from four seagrass species: Amphibolis antarctica, Heterozostera nigricaulis, Posidonia australis and Zostera muelleri. Samples were collected from multiple sites around Tayaritja Sea Country and processed for genome-wide SNP genotyping using the DArTseq platform. The dataset includes population-level genetic summary statistics, associated DArT metadata and reports, and raw sequence data used to support assessment of genetic diversity, clonality, population structure and connectivity among sampled seagrass populations.

See the "Lineage" section of this record for full methodology.

Statement: Leaf tissue samples were collected for genetic analysis from seagrass beds in Tayaritja Sea Country, Flinders Island. Sampling targeted four seagrass species: Amphibolis antarctica, Heterozostera nigricaulis, Posidonia australis and Zostera muelleri. Samples were collected from eight different sites, with 15-25 replicate leaf samples collected within each sampled population. Sampling was undertaken across an approximately 20 m x 20 m area at each site, with a minimum distance of 2 m between samples to reduce the likelihood of repeatedly sampling the same ramet. A subset of samples was selected for DNA extraction and SNP genotyping by Diversity Arrays Technologies Pty Ltd using the DArTseq platform. The resulting SNP data were filtered and analysed in R to assess genetic diversity, clonality and population structure. Multilocus genotypes were identified for each sampled population, and clonal richness was calculated to indicate the proportion of sampled individuals represented by unique genotypes. Population-level summary statistics were derived for each species and sampled population, including numbers of sampled individuals, multilocus genotypes, clonal richness, loci, polymorphic loci, percentage polymorphic loci, observed and expected heterozygosity, inbreeding coefficient and levels of genetic differentiation among populations for each species (global FST). This record provides access to the population-level genetics summary data, DArT metadata and report outputs, and raw sequence data. Further details on laboratory processing, SNP filtering and population genetic analyses are provided in the final project report.
