This dataset contains metadata about the origin of the cold-water coral samples that were RAD sequenced and the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) generated for population genomic analyses. These data were used to examine patterns of genomic structure of Desmophyllum pertusum from throughout US waters along the eastern continental margin and the Gulf of Mexico. The raw sequence data are archived in the GenBank Bioproject PRJNA1027916 at: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/
The yellow lampmussel (YLM; Lampsilis cariosa) occurs in the Saint Lawrence River system and the Atlantic Slope drainages, from Nova Scotia to Georgia. While most mussel species occur only in lotic habitats (rivers and streams), a few occur in lentic habitats (ponds and lakes). The YLM is unusual as it occurs in both lotic and lentic habitats, including large rivers of the Atlantic drainage as well as pools that resemble lentic environments (Haag 2012). The YLM is listed as threatened, endangered, or imperiled in nine states and is considered a species of special concern in Canada. Outside of Canada, there has been no comprehensive assessment of the species’ biological needs, including information on host fishes,...
The files in this data release are the processed DNA consensus sequence alignment files for the chelonid herpesvirus 5 (ChHV-5) genome plus 66 open reading frames representing protien-coding genes. DNA was extracted from tumor biopsies from green sea turtles (Chelonias mydas) with fibropapillomatosis sampled from Florida and Hawaii coastal waters. We used high-throughput short-read sequencing (Illumina MiSeq and Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine) of long-range PCR products amplified from tumor tissue using primers designed from the single available ChHV5 reference genome from a Hawaii green sea turtle. The raw sequence data is available at the NCBI Sequence Read Archive under bioproject number PRJNA360405, including...
Here we provide public access to two mitochondrial DNA sequence alignments, multi-locus microsatellite DNA genotypes, morphometric measurements and details on all specimens utilized in Morrison et al., 2021 (In press).
The FWS considers the Appalachian grizzled skipper (AGS, Pyrgus wyandot) a Species of Concern and is requesting key information on this species for a status review. According to the RFP, FWS has given AGS full species status, however, AGS’s taxonomic status is considered controversial. Some lepidopterists recognize P. wyandot as a full species whereas others consider it a subspecies, P. centaureae wyandot (pers. comm. B. Leppo, PA Natural Heritage Program; in Chazal et al., 2004). Regardless, FWS can still list AGS as threatened or endangered at the species or subspecies level. In this proposal, AGS will be treated as P. c. wyandot for simplicity during genetic analysis (Objective 4). The AGS is a small butterfly...
Cold-water corals create complex structures, but our incomplete knowledge of their niche space limits our ability to understand their distribution and therefore the impact of the ecosystem services they provide in the ocean. The Richardson reef complex consists of over 150 km of linear reef tracts within an area of 75 km2 between 700-900 m depth. This reef experiences rapid shifts in temperature, and currents approaching 1 meter per second. The reef fauna cycle and sequester carbon and regenerate nutrients that help fuel the primary productivity of the region. Newly acquired multibeam sonar mapping data and predictive models indicate that cold-water coral reefs are more widespread than previously understood, necessitating...

The Deep SEARCH Project (Deep sea exploration to advance research on cold corals/canyon/cold seep habitats) included a cruise in April 2019 aboard the NOAA ship Ron Brown to various sites along the Mid-Atlantic North American coast. An ROV was used to collect samples of bottom water at these sites, which were then subjected to eDNA extraction and analyses. This data release describes what samples were collected for eDNA analyses, and how eDNA was extracted, sequenced, and bioinformatically analyzed.
These datasets provide geographic sampling information for Bathymodiolin mussels collected from three cold seep sites off the mid-Atlantic U.S. coast, northwestern Atlantic Ocean. Also included are GenBank accession numbers for mitochondrial gene sequences (COI and ND4) and sequence alignments (File1_mussels) used in phylogenetic analyses for molecular identification of the mussel species. Additionally, GenBank accession numbers for the BioProject containing 16S metabarcoding sequence data used to identify gill symbionts in mussels are provided, along with supporting details for the analyses performed on the 16S metabarcoding data (File2_Symbionts).
