Metabolic responses of two pioneer wood decay fungi to diurnally cycling temperature

This dataset contains pre-processed untargeted GC-MS metabolomics and direct shotgun proteomics from a microcosm woodblock experiment described in the paper \"Rawlings et al (2021) Metabolic responses of two pioneer wood decay fungi to diurnally cycling temperature. Ecology.\" The experiment investigates the effect of diurnal cycling of temperature on the metabolism of two wood decay species, Mucidula mucida and Exidia glandulosa. We colonised beech woodblocks with the two species (separate microcosms) and exposed them to either a diurnally cycling (mean 15 ± 10°C) or constant (15°C) temperature, in a fully factorial design. After 8 weeks we extracted the full complement of metabolites and proteins in the wood to examine the extent to which the abundances of metabolic products were altered. The main results of the experiment were that products linked to lignin breakdown, the citric acid cycle, pentose phosphate pathway, carbohydrate metabolism, fatty acid metabolism and protein bios...
