Primary fecundity was assessed for Acropora cervicornis corals with known disease susceptibility. This dataset presents information on oocyte sizes from dissections of coral polyps from five adult colonies containing 12 genets held in Mote Marine Lab’s spawning nurseries.
This dataset is part of a larger study of Acropora cervicornis (staghorn) corals studied at Mote Marine Lab’s Elizabeth Moore International Center for Coral Reef Research and Restoration. We present dissection information on the sizes of oocytes measured from five randomly chosen oocytes for each of five replicate polpys from three fragments of five colonies containing 12 different genets of Acropora cervicornis held in Mote Marine Laboratory's Sand Key spawing nursery.
