Integrated Omics Analysis of Organic Fertilizer Effects on Cassava Starch Synthesis

A 4.3 MB dataset from figshare details an integrated omics study on cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). The research by Jiongyu Chen, last updated in June 2026, compares organic chicken manure fertilizer against chemical fertilizer. Results indicate organic fertilizer increased cassava yield by 13.72%-26.08% and starch content by 9.90%-11.21%.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between organic fertilizer application and crop yield based on reported yield increases
• Analyzing gene expression patterns related to starch synthesis based on the transcriptome analysis mentioned
• Studying the impact of organic amendments on plant stress pathways based on the glutathione metabolism and β-1,3-glucanase gene regulation described
• Correlating physiological traits like leaf xylem cell area and photosynthetic assimilation with final starch content based on the described agronomic and physiological indices

Strengths

• Specific yield increase of 13.72%-26.08% and starch content increase of 9.90%-11.21% are reported
• Integrates multiple data types: agronomic traits, physiological indices, transcriptome, and metabolome analyses
• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0

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 relatively small at 4.3 MB, potentially limiting the scope of the underlying data
