StressMicrobesInfo: Database of Microorganisms Responsive to Stress Conditions.
Microorganisms are continuously exposed to numerous stress conditions and had evolved with numerous evolutionary adaptations and physiological acclimation mechanisms against stress effects. Any information related to the microbes responsive to stress conditions will help scientists working in the area of stress biology. Currently, there is lack of information resource on this aspect and for getting information about microbes susceptible or tolerant to different environmental changes, literature searching is the only option. Here, we present a database StressMicrobesInfo that was developed with a mandate to provide information about microbes responding to various biotic and abiotic stress conditions. This database currently contains information about 183 microbes along with a brief detail for each. StressMicrobesInfo will facilitate researchers working on stress-related microbes as a starting point and will facilitate them with the microbes which are susceptible or resistant towards particular stress conditions.
