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

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.本研究的原始RNA序列数据源自美属维尔京群岛大学开展的一项珊瑚疾病传播实验。实验中，5种造礁珊瑚——盾形陀螺珊瑚（Colpophyllia natans）、环纹扁脑珊瑚（Orbicella annularis）、条纹假双脑珊瑚（Pseudodiploria strigosa）、星状微孔珊瑚（Porites astreoides）以及巨形脑珊瑚（Montastraea cavernosa）——在中型实验生态系统（mesocosms）中暴露于石珊瑚组织脱落病（Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease, SCTLD）。所获序列被用于比较不同疾病状态（对照组、病害暴露组、病害感染组）下宿主与内共生体基因的差异表达情况，并阐明共生功能体（holobiont）应对SCTLD的转录组学模型。本数据集包含本次实验所检测的上述5种珊瑚的美国国家生物技术信息中心（National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI）登录号及相关数据。
