Abstract Text:

Lipids play a crucial role in soil ecology. They are influential for the formation of soil organic matter and serve as indicators of responses to environmental changes. In spite of this, the field of lipidomics is still in its nascent stages. There is a pressing need to compile lipid profiles from microbial isolates that can reflect the functional groups, thereby enhancing biological understanding of soil lipid data. To address this gap, we created the Soil Lipid Atlas, a comprehensive database for soil lipids. This resource enables researchers to explore lipids and their relationship with specific microbial taxa and functional groups. Within the atlas, users may select studies and compare different treatments and stressors. This enables the observation of differences in the presence and absence of lipids under different treatment conditions and across different strains. Furthermore, users can perform statistical analyses on the log2 fold changes of lipids both on a lipid-by-lipid basis and a strain-by-strain basis. The vision of this atlas is to provide a platform for researchers to contribute lipidomics data, fostering the growth of the database as a community-driven resource.
