Project: Developing a model for transmission of an infectious disease of marine sponges (Sponge Disease Model)

Total protein data from study of sponge disease transmission. Temporal changes in biochemical, physiological and microbiological associations in the Aplysina cauliformis holobiont over the course of transmission of Aplysina Red Band Disease (ARBS) were investigated in two experiments, one performed in July and one performed in January.
