  Evaluation Summary:

  Rutz et al. outline LOTUS, a new open-source database that links natural product structures with the organisms they are present in. It contains over 700,000 referenced structure-organism pairs and search tools that make mining the database intuitive and efficient. The LOTUS Initiative comprises an important data harmonization/integration effort over previous databases. The results are distributed to the public through Wikidata, which additionally supports future curation. This new resource is likely to be of great interest to natural product researchers as well as across fields of biology including ecology, evolution, and biochemistry.
