A dataset comparing bacterial and fungal community compositions in the roots and rhizosphere of four pecan clonal rootstocks (NMU03, NMU04, NMU05, NMU155). The data, authored by Paul Oladimeji Gabriel and last updated in May 2026, includes samples from greenhouse cultivation and subsequent transplantation to the field, analyzed via 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing.
Use Cases
- Compare microbial diversity shifts based on environment (greenhouse vs. field) mentioned in the description
- Identify core microbiome members retained across environmental transitions mentioned in the description
- Analyze genotype-specific structuring of bacterial and fungal assemblages mentioned in the description
- Investigate potential mutualistic associations with mycorrhizal fungi like Elaphomycetaceae mentioned in the description
Strengths
- Includes data from four distinct pecan rootstock genotypes (NMU03, NMU04, NMU05, NMU155)
- Compares microbial communities across two distinct environments (greenhouse and field)
- Analyzes both bacterial (16S rRNA) and fungal (ITS) communities
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- The dataset is very small (9.0 KB), indicating limited scope
