bacteria_tpc: Example thermal performance curves of bacterial growth

bacteria_tpcR Documentation

Example thermal performance curves of bacterial growth

Description

A dataset containing example data of growth rates of the bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens in the presence and absence of its phage, phi2. Growth rates were measured across a range of assay temperatures to incorporate the entire thermal performance of the bacteria The dataset is the cleaned version so some data points have been omitted. There are multiple independent measurements per temperature for each treatment.

Usage

data("bacteria_tpc")

Format

A data frame with 649 rows and 7 variables:

phage

whether the bacteria was grown with or without phage

temp

the assay temperature at which the growth rate was measured (degrees centigrade)

rate

estimated growth rate per hour
