The reads originate from Asparagopsis taxiformis and its microbiome Raw sequence reads
The reads originate from Asparagopsis taxiformis tetrasporophytes and the microbiome associated with them. These tetrasporophytes were cultured for seven days at five different stocking densities including 0.18g/L, 0.25g/L, 0.5g/L, 1g/L, and 5g/L in seawater that contained Asparagopsis taxiformis exudates (hereafter 'conditioned' seawater) accumulated following a 7-day culture at 0.5g/L stocking density.
