MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq data of mycelium and spore of Ascosphaera apis , a widespread bee fungal pathogen

is widespread fungal pathogen of honeybee larvae, causing chalkbrood, a chronic disease that weakens bee health and colony productivity. In this article, mecylia and spores of were respectively purified followed by RNA isolation, cDNA library construction, MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq. A total of 62,551,172, 41,773,158, 49,535,092 and 61,569,610 raw reads were produced from Aam_IP, Aas_IP, Aam_input and Aas_input groups, respectively. After quality control, 58,484,368, 37,381,432, 44,655,434 and 58,739,742 clean reads were obtained. Furthermore, 47,706,205, 31,356,690, 35,259,810 and 44,319,061 clean reads were mapped to the reference genome of , including 39,337,036, 26,731,957, 31,987,396 and 40,017,855 unique mapped reads, and 8,369,169, 4,624,733, 3,272,414 and 4,301,206 multiple mapped reads. Among them, 96.31%, 96.51%, 96.82% and 97.11% of clean reads were mapped to exons; 2.09%, 2.31%,1.83% and 1.81% to introns; 1.60%, 1.18%, 1.35% and 1.08% to intergenic regions.
