NCBI accession numbers for RNAseq data from five coral species experimentally exposed to Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) at the University of the Virgin Islands in 2019

Abstract

Raw RNA sequence data were obtained from a disease transmission experiment carried out at the University of the Virgin Islands in which five reef-building coral species, Colpophyllia natans, Orbicella annularis, Pseudodiploria strigosa, Porites astreoides, and Montastraea cavernosa, were exposed to Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) in mesocosms. Sequences were used to compare the differential expression of host and endosymbiont genes between disease states (control, disease-exposed, and disease-infected) and to elucidate a transcriptomic model of the holobiont response to SCTLD. This dataset includes National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) accession numbers and related data for those five coral species examined in the experiment.
