title: WGS of Rhopilema esculentum: ectoderm tissue
design: Genomic DNA was extracted from the ectoderm tissue using TIANamp Marine Animal DNA Kits (Tiangen, Beijing, China) and used for sequencing. Genomic DNA was sheared using a sonication device for short-insert paired-end (PE) library construction. The short-insert libraries with a size of 500 bp were constructed according to the instruction described in the Illumina library preparation kit. All libraries were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq2500 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) with paired-ends and 150 bp.
