Tr80437 Gene Data: Furfural Tolerance and Cellulase Activity in Trichoderma reesei

A 23.9 KB dataset from figshare, last updated March 2026, details genetic analysis of the fungus Trichoderma reesei. It was created by Yuhang Luo to identify the Tr80437 gene as a key factor for resistance to the inhibitor furfural and for enhanced cellulase production. The data likely contains results from bulked segregant analysis and cross-species screening with Neurospora crassa.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate genes for furfural tolerance based on comparative analysis with Neurospora crassa.
• Screen for genetic targets to enhance cellulase activity under industrial stress conditions.
• Validate quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with inhibitor resistance in fungi.

Strengths

• Data is associated with a specific, peer-reviewed research finding identifying the Tr80437 gene.
• The dataset is small (23.9 KB), facilitating quick download and initial inspection.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset's scale is very limited (23.9 KB), indicating a narrow experimental scope.
