The Persistence Control of Engineered Functions in Complex Soil Microbiomes (PerCon SFA) Project at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), is a Biosystems Design Research Science Focus Area project sponsored by the Genomic Sciences Program (GSP). The PerCon SFA is exploring how environmental niches can be sculpted using the mechanisms of genome reduction and metabolic addiction to drive secure rhizosphere community design for robust biomass cropping in challenging environments.

PerCon SFA developer community contributions compliment publication-relevant digital data assets hosted at the PNNL DataHub repository, enabling exploration and download of integrated experimental dataset DOI catalogs made publicly available to the global scientific community.

Data Management & Sharing

The Genomic Science Program (GSP) is sponsored by the Biological Systems Science Division (BSSD) of the U.S. Department of Energy's Biological and Environmental Research (BER) Program. The BER program require that all publishable digital data and software resulting from project research funded by GSP must be made publicly available and conform to community-recognized standard formats.  For additional information on the Genomic Science Program data-sharing policy, visit genomicscience.energy.gov/datasharing/. 

Data Reuse Policy

This data reuse policy applies to the all project content provided herein and is based on the guiding principles summarized by the Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Science (SC) and the Office of Biological and Environmental Research program (BER), in efforts to promote a more efficient and effective use of government funding and scientific data resources (including all elements of the digital data generation lifecycle design, capture, and analysis intended for sustainable sharing and preservation). Digital research data best practice resources provided serve as a central effort in protecting research data integrity and facilitating the validation of scientific results for advancing science. All cases of data reuse and citation should adhere to guidance provided by the Office of Science of the U.S. Department of Energy.
