Description

This PR addresses issue #482 by adding mangal.io to the kg-registry.

Resource Details

mangal.io is a collaborative platform and database for ecological network data, providing:

Key Features

  • Network Database: Collection of published food webs, pollination networks, plant-herbivore networks, and other species interaction networks from scientific literature
  • Web Portal: Interactive interface for browsing, querying, and visualizing ecological networks
  • RESTful API: Programmatic access to network data and metadata (https://api.mangal.io/)
  • Visualization Tools: Built-in tools for exploring network structures and properties
  • Analysis Platform: Tools for analyzing network metrics and properties

Data Coverage

  • Food webs and trophic networks
  • Pollination networks
  • Plant-herbivore interaction networks
  • Parasite-host networks
  • Mutualistic networks
  • Other biotic interaction networks

Metadata

  • Category: DataSource
  • Domains: Ecology, Biodiversity, Environmental Science
  • License: CC BY 4.0
  • Taxon Coverage: Metazoa (Animals), Green Plants
  • Collection: BER (Biodiversity/Ecology/Environmental Resources)

Implementation

  • Created new resource entry at resource/mangal/mangal.md
  • Includes portal access, API endpoint, and documentation
  • Added appropriate taxon annotations for discoverability

Testing

The resource entry follows the standard kg-registry format and will be:

  • Indexed in the main registry on build
  • Discoverable via taxon filtering (Metazoa, Green Plants)
  • Accessible through the web interface with full metadata
