16S rRNA amplicons from cold-water coral microbiome of Primnoa resedaeformis
The source of this coral microbiome is a sample of Primnoa resedaeformis collected by ROV from Norfolk Canyon in the western Atlantic Ocean in 2013.  The coral tissue was preserved using RNAlater overnight at 4űC before extended storage at -20űC.  DNA was extracted according to the protocol of Sunagawa et al. (2010) and sequenced with primers targeting the V4-V5 variable region of the 16S rRNA gene using 454 pyrosequencing with GS FLX Titanium chemistry.
