Separate IMS101 enrichment, epibiont isolation and field-community metadata #1886

Finding

CommunityMech:000147: the near-complete Alteromonas bin came from IMS101 enrichment, but A020/A021/A029 isolates came from T. erythraeum K-11#131. Current growth-media prose conflates these. The 2018 natural field-colony transcript study does not identify its host as the exact IMS101 strain or all Alteromonas transcripts as A. macleodii. Revisit record-level identity and related-ingredient dependency/iron-state language without rewriting the established ROS compound/process split (#297). #765 already tracks removed growth-medium evidence; do not restore restricted bodies to repair it.

Three whole canonical records read. Fresh primary abstracts and DOI metadata for nine source identities; complete extracted main bodies for the 2014 climate, HP15 genome and 2020 partitioning papers; full extracted 2011 aggregation, 2017 recognition and 2017 consortium PDFs. Selected figures visually inspected. The 2018 diel main body was read from existing curator text, not independently retrieved full text. Chemotaxis is bounded to the abstract; MEPS full PDF returned HTTP 401 and was not bypassed. No new publication bodies or cache changes.

All-state issue title/body dedup and ignored/hidden-inclusive local searches were recorded. Nine matching existing issues were read; historical PR comments were not exhaustively searched.

Lifecycle

Remain open until the separate research or metadata work is verified. Source-based self-adversarial review is not independent approval.
