Rhine-Main region of Germany organic tomato farms provided soil for a study of healthy and Phytophthora infestans-challenged plants. The dataset contains results from 594 bacterial isolates, identifying 84 that inhibited P. infestans, with functional screening and amplicon-based microbiome analysis. It was authored by Philemon Orwa and last updated on 2026-05-01.
Use Cases
- Identify bacterial antagonists of Phytophthora infestans based on in vitro inhibition assays.
- Analyze links between microbiome community structure and functional antagonism based on 16S rRNA sequencing.
- Study the influence of soil origin and plant compartment on antagonist distribution based on amplicon sequence variant mapping.
- Screen for bacterial isolates with broad-spectrum antagonistic potential based on lytic enzyme and siderophore activity profiling.
Strengths
- Includes data from 594 bacterial isolates with functional screening results.
- Links culture-dependent isolation with amplicon-based microbiome analysis from two organic farms.
- Identifies 28 isolates with broad-spectrum antagonistic potential.
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- The dataset is small at 16.0 KB, indicating limited scope.
