Seasonal Proteome Profiles of the Liverwort Dumortiera hirsuta from Meghalaya, India

Meghalaya, India, is the source for this proteomic dataset of the liverwort Dumortiera hirsuta across four growing seasons. It contains protein expression data identified via two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. The dataset was authored by Sandhya Yadav and last updated on May 1, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing seasonal shifts in protein expression related to photosynthesis and defense mechanisms.
• Identifying putative stress-responsive proteins like Bet_v_1 and germin-like proteins across seasons.
• Studying plant acclimation strategies to environmental stressors like temperature and precipitation changes.
• Comparing proteomic changes between growth, stressful, and reproductive seasons in bryophytes.

Strengths

• Data covers four distinct growing seasons (pre-monsoon, monsoon, post-monsoon, fruiting), enabling temporal analysis.
• Proteins are categorized into functional groups such as cell growth, photosynthesis, and defense mechanisms.
• Specific geographic coordinates (25.5788°N, 91.8933°E) are provided for sample collection.

Limitations

• The dataset is 22.8 MB, which is a small scale for proteomic data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
• The primary data format is PDF, which may require extraction for computational analysis.
