We sought to investigate the prevalence of this ciliate in sympatric reservoirs in the coral reef environment by targeted PCR using primers designed around this 18S rRNA sequence. We used swab sampling of corals, macroalgae, and other surfaces, as well as urchin tissues, followed by phylogenetic analyses, to identify the presence and diversity of this ciliate. We found that DaScPc could be found primarily in association with the coral Siderastrea siderea, and that changes in its prevalence could be explained by disease state of urchins, macroalgal density, and proximity to disease sites. This dataset contains the GenBank accession, sequencing, and collection metadata for the study.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nGenbank_Accession (unitless)\nSequence_ID (unitless)\nSample_Location (unitless)\nSample_Type (unitless)\nSample_Month (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\n | BCO-DMO | bcodmo_dataset_985574_v1 |
