Entomopathogenic Fungal Families from Uluguru Mountain Soil HTS

Normalized read counts and relative abundance percentages for entomopathogenic fungal families identified from high-throughput sequencing of Uluguru Mountain soils. The dataset was created by Abel Jonathan Mussa and last updated on May 11, 2026. Values indicate proportional representation within the total ITS dataset.

Use Cases

• Compare fungal family abundance across sites based on normalized read counts.
• Profile soil microbial communities based on ITS sequencing data.
• Study the distribution of entomopathogenic fungi in a mountain ecosystem.

Strengths

• Data includes normalized read counts and relative abundance percentages, providing two complementary measures.
• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
• Focus on a specific geographic region, the Uluguru Mountains.

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 5.5 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
