Nine-day old Acropora millepora coral larvae were exposed to ten concentrations of 1-methylnaphthalene for 48 hours. The data collection includes larval settlement and Tag-based RNA-Seq gene expression results. Raw sequencing data is archived under NCBI BioProject PRJNA1470448.
Use Cases
- Analyze differential gene expression in coral larvae based on exposure to 1-methylnaphthalene concentrations.
- Model the relationship between pollutant concentration and larval settlement success.
- Identify biomarker genes for hydrocarbon toxicity in early coral life stages.
Strengths
- Data is linked to a specific NCBI BioProject (PRJNA1470448) for raw sequencing access.
- Experiment tested ten nominal concentrations (0–4000 µg L⁻¹) of 1-methylnaphthalene.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
