Viruses were collected from whole Porites compressa tissue extracts (originally collected at 21.434025, -157.787822 between February 23-25, 2006) taken from an aquarium control experiment that consisted of 5 liters of ambient seawater that was changed every 24 hours. Metagenome consisted of 36 amplified coral viral DNA samples that were collected at 1 (n=9), 4 (n=9), 16 (n=9), and 64 (n=9) hours during the experiment. DNA samples were pooled in equal amounts for sequencing at 454 Life Sciences. 454 sequence data is available from the Short Read Archive (SRA): <a href="ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/TraceDB/ShortRead/SRA000447 ">SRA000447</a>.
