Data

Here you can find the datasets generated in our studies. They are accessible via their bioproject numbers in the European Nucleotide archive (ENA) or directly through an interactive map where you can choose single isolates with more metadata. We are happy when these datasets are used for comparative studies or similar. Please think about citing the respective publication when using this data.
