15 bacteriophage genomes infecting Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni were isolated from North Carolina orchards over four decades. Katherine M. D'Amico-Willman's comparative genomic analysis defined a new genus and species, Duraznoxanthovirus arenicola, and proposed a taxonomic restructuring within the Anamaviridae family. This 60.5 KB Excel file likely contains genomic and phylogenetic data supporting these findings.
Use Cases
- Analyzing genomic stability and divergence patterns based on comparative genomics of 15 phage isolates.
- Studying phage-host interactions in plant-associated ecosystems based on the described host bacterium.
- Developing taxonomic frameworks for phages based on the proposed new subfamily and genera.
- Investigating temporal evolutionary trends based on phages isolated over a 40-year period.
Strengths
- Data spans four decades of phage isolation, providing a long-term evolutionary perspective.
- Analysis includes 15 phage genomes, enabling comparative genomic studies.
- The work defines a new genus and species, offering a concrete taxonomic contribution.
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 (60.5 KB), indicating limited scope or summary-level data.
