Dual RNAseq of Strongwellsea castrans infected cabbage fly (Delia Radicum)

Raw sequence data of Strongwellsea castrans sensu lato obtained from a wild caught cabbage fly (Delia radicum). An infected fly was caught in a cabbage field (farm name: Sørisgård, Latitude: 55.823706, Longitude 12.171149, date: 04/09/2013). The fly contained a clearly visible large hole on the side of the abdomen characteristic of S. castrans infection and was kept alive for a few hours until being snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. The infected fly was ground to a fine powder in liquid nitrogen before extracting total RNA using a Plant RNEasy Kit (QIAGEN #74904) following manufacturer's instructions. Total RNA was sequenced using BGISeq technology by Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI-Europe, Copenhagen, Denmark)
