This project provides a list of known projects and studies that contain interaction data, that may or may not have been made openly accessible. The goal of this is to make an inventory of datasets with their species interaction summaries.
To make it easy to find existing interaction datasets without necessarily including all the interaction records, one or more entries per datasets are provided to capture the nature of the interaction records. Each element includes the following elements.
element name | required | example | description |
---|---|---|---|
sourceTaxonName | Y | Animalia | describes a starting point of an interaction |
interactionTypeId | N | RO:0002455 | a identifier for the interaction from Relations Ontology (e.g., see http://www.ontobee.org/ontology/RO?iri=http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/RO_0002556) |
interactionTypeLabel | Y | pollinates | human readable description of the interaction |
targetTaxonName | Y | Plantae | describes an endpoint (target) of the interaction |
referenceCitation | Y | IABIN Pollinators Thematic Network (IABIN PTN) | citation for specific dataset |
referenceUrl | N | http://www.biocomp.org.br/iabinptn | link to dataset |
The example above describes a dataset IABIN Pollinators Thematic Network (IABIN PTN)
at http://www.biocomp.org.br/iabinptn that contains interaction records of animal (Animalia) pollinating plants (Plantae) .
For the existing list, please see interactions.tsv
To add to this list, please do one of the following:
- edit interactions.tsv, add your entries (in tab separated values) and create a pull request
- (if 1. sounds scary) edit spreadsheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OggvR-Mzox2lt78NNzOc0sEYQQF2UUzPRtHA6Pg-m1Y/ , add your entries.
- (if 1., 2. sound scary) open an issue and include description of datasets containing the information elements above.
- (if 1., 2., 3. sound scary) send an email containing the information elements above.
