Pinctada margaritifera albino and black wild-type phenotypes RNA sequencing, from juvenile to cultured pearl harvest stages.
Whole transcriptome RNA-sequencing analysis comparing albino and black wild-type phenotypes at three stages over the culture cycle of P. margaritifera : whole juvenile, mantle graft and pearl sac. The sample identifiers were: 1) for the Juvenile (J) dataset: AN6 to AN10 (albino) and TB6 to TB10 (black wild-type); 2) for the Mantle (M) dataset: X11 to X15 (albino) and X6 to X9 (black wild-type); and 3) for the Pearl Sac (PS) dataset: B8, B11, B17 and B19 (albino) and N45, N47, N54 and N55 (black wild-type).
