Exiguobacterium Genomic Analysis of 187 Strains for Adaptation and Phage Diversity

Yiping Tian's dataset from 2026 contains genomic analysis results for 187 Exiguobacterium strains. The data was generated using phylogenomic and comparative genomics methods to elucidate the genus's high adaptability to diverse environments. The analysis includes findings on metabolic pathways, stress-response proteins, antibiotic resistance genes, and phage genomic diversity.

Use Cases

• Identifying genes for complex polysaccharide and protein utilization based on the described genomic features.
• Studying horizontal gene transfer of antibiotic and heavy metal resistance based on the mention of genes within genomic islands.
• Analyzing phage diversity and its role in host genomic variability based on the description of auxiliary metabolic genes.
• Investigating genomic traits for osmotic and temperature stress adaptation based on the described shock proteins and compatible solutes.

Strengths

• Analysis is based on 187 Exiguobacterium genomes, providing a broad sample of the genus.
• The description details specific adaptive traits analyzed, including heat/cold-shock proteins, antioxidant enzymes, and resistance genes.
• Data is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, permitting flexible reuse with attribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for specific analytical tasks.
• The dataset is small (1.7 MB), which may indicate it contains summary results rather than raw genomic sequences.
