Abstract

This data set describes nuclear microsatellite genotypes derived from seventeen autosomal loci (Fal02, Fal04, Fal08, Fal10, Fal12, Fal14-1, Fal16, Fal19, Gch03, Gch06, Gch07, Gch12, Gch13, Gch14, Gch17, Gch19, and KiRa10) and nucleotide sequence data derived from two mitochondrial DNA loci (control region and NADH dehydrogenase 2). A total of 47 Hawaiian coots and 52 Hawaiian moorhen were examined for this study. Samples were collected on Oahu, Hawaii, United States of America. Samples used in the study originated from blood samples collected in the field from live trapped birds or from tissue taken from museum specimens according to each institution's load policies and procedures. We compared historical (samples collected in the late 1800s and early 1900s) and modern (collected in 2012–2013) populations.
