A catalog of metagenomes and metagenome-assembled genomes from culture-enrichment microcosms containing polyethylene as carbon source

We present a data set detailing enrichment microbial consortia degrading polyethylene (PE) plastic. Derived from 180-day microcosm incubations using landfill soil, seawater, and cow dung, the data set includes three metagenomes and 23 metagenome-assembled genomes that capture microbial community int...

Description
Summary:We present a data set detailing enrichment microbial consortia degrading polyethylene (PE) plastic. Derived from 180-day microcosm incubations using landfill soil, seawater, and cow dung, the data set includes three metagenomes and 23 metagenome-assembled genomes that capture microbial community interactions, structures, and functions relevant to PE biodegradation.
