14 phenotypic traits, 5 quantitative genomic traits, and 4 environmental characteristics
Global
Bacteria and Archaea
A synthesis of phenotypic and quantitative genomic traits is provided for bacteria and archaea, in the form of a scripted, reproducible workflow that standardizes and merges 26 sources. The resulting unified dataset covers 14 phenotypic traits, 5 quantitative genomic traits, and 4 environmental characteristics for approximately 170,000 strain-level and 15,000 species-aggregated records. It spans all habitats including soils, marine and fresh waters and sediments, host-associated and thermal. Trait data can find use in clarifying major dimensions of ecological strategy variation across species. They can also be used in conjunction with species and abundance sampling to characterize trait mixtures in communities and responses of traits along environmental gradients.
Approximately 170,000 strains and 15,000 species
Mostly measurements on cultured cells
Standardization of traits according to https://github.com/bacteria-archaea-traits/bacteria-archaea-traits; standardization of taxonomy mainly based on https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy and https://gtdb.ecogenomic.org
