More than 150 mammalian species were analyzed in phylogenomic and comparative genomic research. The dataset presents statistical associations between the complete loss of the PYHIN immune gene family and ecological traits in bats. The analysis was conducted by Chanasei Ziemann and last updated on 2026-05-28.
Use Cases
- Conducting phylogenetically controlled logistic regression based on trait data for powered flight and inverted roosting.
- Analyzing genomic cassette dynamics based on the Anchored Gene Cluster Pulsation mechanism described.
- Investigating correlations between genomic distance and gene copy number across mammals as mentioned in the description.
- Studying targeted gene loss patterns based on the retention of olfactory receptor genes within the same chromosomal region.
Strengths
- Integrates data from more than 150 mammalian species.
- Focuses on a specific immune gene family (PYHIN) with a clear evolutionary mechanism described.
- Provides statistically tested associations for specific ecological traits.
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 (16.6 KB), indicating limited scope.
