Overview
This report integrates every plant-associated microbiome study currently curated from the NASA Open Science Data Repository (OSDR) into a single relational database and a set of linked, interactive dashboards. Study, assay, factor and sample metadata are sourced from OSDR; diversity metrics are computed by the pipeline.
Study Registry
Curated, versioned registry of OSDR plant-microbiome accessions. Each links to its OSDR landing page.

Study-Metadata Graph Database
Heterogeneous knowledge graph linking studies to their shared metadata entities (hardware, organism, assay, region, tissue, factor). Studies that cluster together share comparison-relevant attributes; the same graph is exported as GraphML / Cypher for Gephi, Cytoscape or Neo4j.
Guild Inference (ML): Beneficial · Plant Pathogen · Human Pathogen
Multiclass semi-supervised inference of microbial ecological guilds,
fusing a curated prior knowledge base, guild-specific trait features,
co-occurrence guilt-by-association and label spreading. Crucially, the two
very different meanings of pathogen are kept on separate axes:
a plant-pathogen (phytopathogen, e.g. Ralstonia) is a
crop-yield risk, whereas a human/clinical pathogen
(e.g. Staphylococcus) is a food-safety / crew-health risk. They
co-occur in the same hardware but threaten different hosts and demand
different responses. See data/processed/GUILD_METHOD.md.
