plant-data

Project goal and description

The purpose of this repository is to document the collection of a dataset that organized information about plant genes, phenotypes, and annotations from a variety of data sources, and contains notebooks and scripts for preprocessing and combining this information. The intended use of the dataset is for looking into how well natural language processing (NLP) approaches work for recovering or predicting biological information from text descriptions of phenotypes, compared to using ontology-based annotations to make equivalent predictions.

Dataset

Here is the dataset link: https://zenodo.org/record/7947342

What's here?

  1. All the files that were used for this dataset are listed in file_descriptions.tsv, which includes links to the original data source where applicable. These come from databases, papers, and other bioinformatics resources. Note that the files listed are not actually present in this repository, because some are only available through database subscriptions or requests.

  2. The pipeline.sh scripts runs each script (see preprocessing and scripts directories) for preprocessing and merging the information present in each of those files. This pipeline generates all the files in the reshaped_data directory, and the first few lines of each of those intermediate data files are available in the reshaped_samples directory. This is done to take the information from a variety of sources, and represent it with a standard set of columns so that it can be merged into a single dataset. Files that map genes to groups of any kind (e.g., pathways) use columns species, group_ids, and gene_identifiers. Files that specify mappings between those groups and full group names use columns group_id and group_name. Files that map genes to phenotype descriptions or annotations are use columns species, unique_gene_identifiers, other_gene_identifiers, gene_models, descriptions, annotations, and sources.

  3. The primary dataset of interest that combines all this information is genes_text_annots, as csv, tsv, and json.

  4. A subset of this primary dataset with fewer genes and truncated fields (small enough to view on GitHub) is genes_texts_annots_sample, as tsv or json.

Variable Names

Variable names share meaning across files and are listed and described here.

  • id: A unique integer identifier used internally to reference one particular gene.
  • species: A string referring to a species, three-letter organism codes are used here.
  • unique_gene_identifiers: A list of strings uniquely mapped to one particular gene.
  • other_gene_identifiers: A list of strings that do not necessary (but might) uniquely refer to one gene.
  • gene_models: A list of strings referencing gene models, a subset of unique_gene_identifiers.
  • descriptions: A string containing phenotype descriptions associated to a gene.
  • annotations: A list of strings that are ontology term IDs associated to a gene.
  • sources: A list of strings that refer to the resource in which this information was found.
  • group_id: A string uniquely referring to some kind of group (e.g., a biochemical pathway).
  • group_name: A string referring to a longer name for some kind of group.

What does the data look like?

The primary dataset is a list of genes and accompanying fields that include information about the gene, descriptions of phenotypes associated with the gene, and ontology term anotations mapped to the gene.

A sample of the json dataset with truncated fields is shown here.
