Data Submission

Data Submission Guidelines for the sftpuntwist Cluster

Please adhere to the following guidelines when submitting your data to the sftpuntwist cluster to ensure data consistency and usability.

File Structure and Format:

One File Per Experiment:
- Each file should contain data from a single experiment. For example, if you performed FAMEs analysis, all variables measured during that experiment should be included in one file.
Tab-Separated Values (TSV):
- Files must be tab-separated text files (.tsv).
File Naming Convention:
- Name each file after the experiment it represents. For example, a file containing FAMEs analysis data should be named FAMES.tsv.

File Content and Field Definitions:

Each file should adhere to the following structure, with the first six columns representing metadata:

- datasubmissionformat

Column Name	Description	Example
line	cultivar	UNT18, UNT4
replicate	biological replicate	r1, r2, r3 ...
institute	The institute code who performed the experiment	RRES, INRAE, AIT, UNIBO, CCE
interval	this field is for time series experiment or multi year trials	Year1, Year2
development stage	the developmental stage of the plant at which the data was measured	maturity, seedling, flowering, 4 leaf stage etc,
location	the country of the institute	e. g for RRES it will be United Kingdom
Plant_anatomical_entity	the tissue on which the measurement is made	leaf, whole plant, root, seed, flower
treatment	experimental conditions	control, heat, drought

naming variable columns

The rest of the columns represent the variables/params measured, you can add as many as possible. each variable column's name should be its name and the measurement unit

example variable name = Fresh Weight (g)

For variable names please do not use abbreviations, if you must use please provide and additional acronym's file. Please do not include them in the same file with other data points. Please do not use multiple sheets in one file.

Folder structure on the sftpuntwist

in the sftpuntwist folder you can follow this scheme to deposit your data

e. g if WP3 is the main folder
 
- WP3
    -RRES
        -FAMES.tsv
        - Licor.tsv
        -FAMES_notes.txt
        -FAMES_protocol.txt
 
    -INRAE
        -FAMES.tsv
        - Licor.tsv
    -UNIBO
        -FAMES.tsv
        - Licor.tsv
        -FAMES_notes.txt
        -FAMES_protocol.txt

Additional information

If there is any additional information, this chould also be submitted usinng the same file name with you experiment. e. g. above folder contain files FAMES_notes.txt, FAMES_protocol.txt or FAMES_README.txt in your corresponding folder.
