An investigation of Symbiodiniaceae communities via ITS-2 rDNA amplicon sequencing in Acropora millepora corals from the Great Barrier Reef following exposure to stressors in October 2014

Symbiodiniaceae communities were investigated at three locations on the Great Barrier Reef in October 2014. Acropora millepora samples from Davies Reef lagoon (18°30′3.96′′S, 147°22′48′′E), Rib Reef (18°28′53.4′′S, 146°52′24.96′′E), and Pandora Island (18°48′45′′S, 146°25′59.16′′E), were exposed to various stressors including pCO2, heat, bacteria, all of these, or none of these (control). This dataset lists accessions and collection information for ITS-2 rDNA amplicon data that are available at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) under BioProject PRJNA596498.
