Publication date: Available online 21 July 2016 Source:Genomics Data Author(s): Tarek A.A. Moussa, Hassan S. AlZahrani, Omar A. Almaghrabi, Nevien M. Sabry, Michael P. Fuller The data presented contains the sequences of fungal Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) and 18S rRNA gene from a metagenome of Mecca region, Saudi Arabia. Sequences were amplified using fungal specific primers, which amplified the amplicon lined between the 18S and 28S rRNA genes. A total of 460 fungal species belonging to 133 genera, 58 families, 33 orders, 13 classes and 4 phyla was identified in the four sites. The raw sequencing data used to perform this analysis along with FASTQ file are located in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) under accession numbers: SRR3150823, SRR3144873, SRR3150825 and SRR3150846.
