The IsoGenie database: an interdisciplinary data management solution for ecosystems biology and environmental research
Modern microbial and ecosystem sciences require diverse interdisciplinary teams that are often challenged in “speaking” to one another due to different languages and data product types. Here we introduce the IsoGenie Database (IsoGenieDB; https://isogenie-db.asc.ohio-state.edu/ ), a de novo develope...
