Soil Microbiome Phage-Host Dynamics Under Herbicide Stress

26.2 KB of tabular data from a figshare-hosted study investigating phage-mediated herbicide resistance. The dataset likely contains temporal dynamics from days 0, 15, 30, and 60 under glufosinate and dicamba treatments, as described by author Xiang Tang. It was last updated on 2026-04-18.

Use Cases

• Modeling microbial community recovery based on temporal dynamics mentioned in the description
• Analyzing phage lifestyle shifts (temperate vs. virulent) in response to herbicide stress
• Investigating the role of auxiliary metabolic genes like gdhA in metabolic bypass mechanisms
• Correlating phage recruitment patterns with field-relevant glufosinate exposure across geographic regions

Strengths

• Data covers four distinct time points (days 0, 15, 30, 60) enabling temporal analysis
• Findings are corroborated by metagenomic analyses across 23 regions in China
• Includes in vitro validation of a specific phage-encoded gene (gdhA) function

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the specific study sites
