Metagenomes of tropical soil-derived anaerobic switchgrass-adapted consortia with and without iron

Table 1. Classification and general features of the four metagenome data sets according to the Minimum Information about Genomes and Metagenomes (MIMS) standards [13].

MIMS ID	Property	Term	Evidence code^a
	Current classification	Metagenome ecological metagenome terrestrial metagenome	TAS [5]
	Carbon source	Switchgrass	IDA
	Energy source	Switchgrass	IDA
	Terminal electron receptor	Iron reduction or fermentation	TAS [8]
MIGS-6	Habitat	Consortia (mixed community) derived from wet tropical forest soils	TAS [8]
MIGS-14	Pathogenicity	none	NAS
MIGS-4	Geographic location	Wet tropical forest, Puerto Rico, USA
MIGS-5	Sample collection time	April, 2009
MIGS-4.1	Latitude	18°18□N
MIGS-4.2	Longitude	65°50□W

^a Evidence codes - IDA: Inferred from Direct Assay; TAS: Traceable Author Statement (i.e., a direct report exists in the literature); NAS: Non-traceable Author Statement (i.e., not directly observed for the living, isolated sample, but based on a generally accepted property for the species, or anecdotal evidence). These evidence codes are from the Gene Ontology project [14].
