Abstract
This dataset contains results from genus-specific qPCR assays to quantify the abundance of Symbiodinium, Breviolum, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium symbionts relative to coral cells in Orbicella faveolata from Abaco, The Bahamas in January 2019. Bulk genomic DNA was extracted from tissue scrapings collected by SCUBA divers, and used as a template for qPCR assays. Resulting CT values were used to calculate symbiont to host cell ratios for each symbiont genus within each coral. The publication based on these data can be found here: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00338-020-01948-0. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'.
