BUSCADOR RECOLECTA

The dataset consists of three comma-delimited plain text files corresponding to (i) Epigenotypic data of maternal modules, (ii) phenotypic data of maternal modules, and (iii) phenotypic data of the subprogenies obtained in the greenhouse, for different modules from adult, wild-grown, field-sampled plants of the shrub Lavandula latifolia (Lamiaceae). Five modules, each consisting of a terminal branchlet bearing one inflorescence and its subtending leaves, were collected from each of 15 wild-growing L. latifolia plants from a large population growing near Arroyo Aguaderillos in the Sierra de Cazorla (Jaén province, southeastern Spain; geographical coordinates 37.96157 N, 2.88389 W). Each module was characterized epigenotypically by the methylation state of methylation-sensitive amplified fragment length polymorphism markers (MS-AFLP), and phenotypically by fecundity-related traits (inflorescence length, and size, number and mass of seeds produced). Seeds from the different modules were sown in the greenhouse and resulting ‘subprogenies’ characterized phenotypically (germination probability and time to emergence, seedling size, susceptibility to fungal disease). For MS-AFLP data, each column refer to a specific (although anonymous) marker, identified by primer combination and size (base pairs)., This dataset includes three files containing (i) Epigenotypic data of maternal modules, (ii) phenotypic data of maternal modules, and (iii) phenotypic data of greenhouse subprogenies for different modules of 15 adult, wild-grown, field-sampled plants of the shrub Lavandula latifolia., Partial support for this study was provided by grants PID2019-104365GB-I00 (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, Spanish Government) and P18-FR-4413 (Consejería de Transformación Económica, Industria, Conocimiento y Universidades, Andalusian Government)., Five modules, each consisting of a terminal branchlet bearing one inflorescence and its subtending leaves, were collected from each of 15 wild-growing L. latifolia plants from a large population growing near Arroyo Aguaderillos in the Sierra de Cazorla (Jaén province, southeastern Spain; geographical coordinates 37.96157 N, 2.88389 W).
