Data of de novo transcriptome assembly of the myxozoan parasite <i>Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae</i>.

ABSTRACT: Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, a myxozoan endoparasite, causes proliferative kidney disease in salmonids. The life cycle of T. bryosalmonae occurs between invertebrate bryozoan and vertebrate fish hosts. T. bryosalmonae develops in the body cavity of colonial bryozoan and spores are released from mature spore sacs into the water likely through the vestibular pore and infect fish by attaching to their gills. However, very little is known about the transcriptome of this important parasite, which hampers studies into the molecular mechanisms of host-parasite interactions and understanding the parasite biology. In order to circumvent this limitation, we performed de novo transcriptome assembly on the sacs of T. bryosalmonae, collected from infected bryozoan <
