Repair bioleaching graph iron-oxidizer attribution and cross-study causal claims #1507

Closed

Description

@realmarcin

Record: kb/communities/Industrial_Bioreactor_Consortium.yaml.

The early node attributes ferrous-iron oxidation and rusticyanin to A. caldus, contradicting the primary sulfur-oxidizer assignment. The middle-stage evidence truncates a negation, turning the reported S. acidophilus predominance into A. caldus predominance. Late-stage F. thermophilum evidence is assigned to F. acidiphilum/Acidiplasma. Copper-yield evidence quotes inoculation Methods rather than the result. Three causal arrows depend on the wrong organism or combine distinct communities. Cuniculiplasma has a hexose-biosynthesis CURIE labeled as generic heterotrophy; species complementarity and detoxification are not demonstrated.

Primary evidence: 2023 pyrite-arsenopyrite reactors, 2014 chalcopyrite culture, 2019 pH study. The complete 2023 main text/Methods/tables/captions were read from freshly retrieved primary XML. The 2014/2019 studies were reviewed at abstract scope. No images, supplements or raw data inspected.

Repair existing nodes/arrows without inventing replacement taxonomy or implying that the 2023 MAGs belong to the 2014 culture. Preserve measured copper extraction and relative population findings. Broader record identity and a properly grounded regeneration graph require a separate open research task, not an unsupported new edge.

Dedup searched 813 all-state bodies and ignored/hidden artifacts. #1358 is a different copper heap; #1372 is a Cyprus mineral-ingredient issue. Keep this repair open until protected-main merge.
