Reference genome of Corallium japonicum (Coralliidae)

To reveal larval dispersal range of <i>Corallium japonicum</i> that is suffering from poaching and over-harvesting, we estimated spatial genetic structure using genome-wide SNPs obtained by high-throughput technology. We examined the power of detecting significant spatial structure by changing the number of loci and the proportion of missing data using both using both in <i>de novo</i> and mapping method. This assembled sequencing data was created from <i>C. japonicum</i> (Label: アカサンゴ1, Sample number: 91) collected in Shiraho, Okinawa, Japan on 24th October 2011 and used as a reference genome.<br>
