Data rescue from the article 'Global patterns and rates of habitat transitions across the eukaryotic tree of life' by Jamy et al., 2022.

This dataset is a data rescue from the article 'Jamy, M., Biwer, C., Vaulot, D. et al. Global patterns and rates of habitat transitions across the eukaryotic tree of life. Nat Ecol Evol 6, 1458–1470 (2022). doi.org/10.1038/s41559-022-01838-4'. Sample metadata were extracted from the original article's supplementary files, raw sequence data was downloaded from the European Nucleotide Archive (project id: PRJEB45931).

Bioinformatics steps applied to the raw sequence data to obtain OTU representative sequences included the use of NextITS pipeline (Mikryukov et al., 2026) and taxonomic identification using SINTAX (Edgar et al., 2016) and SH matching tool (Abarenkov et al., 2022).
