Microbial taxa (amplicon sequence variant or ASV) statistical analyses for two seagrass genotypes from wasting disease mesocosm experiments at Bodega Marine Laboratory in July-Sept of 2015

Abstract

This dataset includes outputs from statistical analyses of differences in microbial taxa (amplicon sequence variant or ASV) abundance among two groups of seagrass, Zostera marina, genotypes: those that showed reduced Labyrinthula zosterae parasites when warmed vs those that showed increased L. zosterae parasites when warmed; and two seawater temperature treatments: ambient or elevated +3.2oC. Data were collected as part of a mesocosm study at the Bodega Marine Laboratory examining the independent and interactive effects of warming, host genotypic identity, and host genotypic diversity on the prevalence and intensity of infections of seagrass by the wasting disease parasite L. zosterae.

These data were published in Schenck et al (2022). Related sequence data from this experiment is accessible from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) BioProject PRJNA716355.
