Yam Tuber Morphogenesis Under Planting Density Stress

Peng Wang's dataset analyzes morphological, physiological, and molecular responses of Chinese yam tuber growth under different planting densities. The data likely contains transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles, physiological measurements, and morphological observations from the 'W48' cultivar. It was last updated on 2026-05-19.

Use Cases

• Identify key genes regulating tuber thickening based on transcriptomic analysis.
• Analyze hormone signaling pathways involved in plant density stress response.
• Correlate photosynthetic capacity and starch content with tuber morphology.
• Model the relationship between planting density and tuber cell enlargement.
• Validate core regulatory factors like ARF11 and ERF genes for crop improvement.

Strengths

• Dataset integrates multiple data types: morphological, physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic.
• Analysis identifies a critical period for tuber thickness differences at 110 days after planting.
• License is CC-BY-4.0, allowing for open reuse and redistribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data is stored in a DOC file format, which may require conversion for analysis.
