Philemon Orwa published a dataset on 2026-05-01 containing results from a study linking tomato microbiome structure to functional analysis. The data likely includes results from 594 bacterial isolates, 84 of which inhibited Phytophthora infestans, and amplicon-based microbiome analyses from tomato plants cultivated in soils from organic farms in Germany's Rhine-Main region.
Use Cases
- Identify bacterial antagonists of Phytophthora infestans based on functional screening for lytic enzymes and siderophores.
- Analyze shifts in tomato microbiome composition based on plant compartment and soil origin.
- Map cultured bacterial isolates to amplicon sequence variants to understand antagonist abundance and distribution.
Strengths
- Data is derived from 594 bacterial isolates with functional profiling.
- Includes results from in planta assays identifying effective antagonists like Pseudarthrobacter sp._Pb177.
- License is CC-BY-4.0, permitting broad reuse.
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 small at 10.2 KB, indicating limited scope.
