RAST Annotations for 20 Pinus Radiata Soil Bacteria

RAST annotations for secondary metabolite clusters predicted for 20 soil bacteria isolated from Pinus radiata associated soils. The dataset was authored by Lottie Armstrong and last updated on 2026-04-13. It is provided as a 781.9 KB Excel spreadsheet.

Use Cases

• Identifying biosynthetic gene clusters based on RAST-predicted genes.
• Comparative genomics of soil bacteria based on annotated secondary metabolite pathways.
• Screening for potential novel natural products from environmental isolates.

Strengths

• Dataset is small (781.9 KB), facilitating quick download and local analysis.
• Annotations are derived from the established RASTtk annotation pipeline, as cited.
• Data is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
• The dataset's scope is limited to 20 bacterial isolates from a specific soil type.
