Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition
Abstract Understanding and quantifying the microbial contribution to particulate organic matter (POM) flux and carbon cycling in the ocean relies largely on the collection of sinking POM. A critical aspect of evaluating microbial communities on sediment trap‐collected POM is their preservation until recovery and sample processing.

SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing on Illumina MiSeq Using ARTIC Protocol: Part 2 - Illumina DNA Flex Protocol v1
This protocol is an adaption of several circulating protocols on SARS-CoV-2 sequencing using the ARTIC protocol and the Illumina Nexterra DNA Flex library prep kit. Its purpose is to simplify things for the average state public health laboratory, using equipment and expertise they currently posess, most likely from their funded PulseNet activities ...

A case of yogurt central line‐associated bloodstream infection in a child with intestinal failure
Abstract Central line‐associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) are a significant cause of morbidity in children with intestinal failure (IF). Probiotic therapy is discouraged in patients with IF because of the increased risk of bacteremia with the probiotic organism.

Seasonality in temperate ecosystems shapes species phenology, influencing interactions and food web structure. Variations in species richness and biomass affect trophic interaction strength, a crucial factor for community stability, which can be assessed through energy fluxes – an essential indicator of ecosystem function.

Presumed TP53 mosaicism: variants detected using a NGS hereditary cancer multigene panel [PDF]
Aims/Context: NGS multigene panels are routinely used to identify germline pathogenic variants in cancer susceptibility genes. In addition, NGS allows the identification of low-level mosaicism events that may not be detectable by conventional Sanger ...

Understanding and mitigating some limitations of Illumina© MiSeq for environmental sequencing of Fungi [PDF]
AbstractITS-amplicon metabarcode studies using the illumina MiSeq sequencing platform are the current standard tool for fungal ecology studies. Here we report on some of the particular challenges experienced while creating and using a ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) amplicon library for an ecological study.

Aromatic plants, nest bacterial diversity, and nestling condition in Corsican blue tits
According to the ‘nest protection hypothesis', some passerines incorporate fresh aromatic plants into their nests which reduce pathogens that can negatively affect nestlings. We experimentally evaluated the effect of five aromatic plant species on the nest bacterial microbiota of Corsican blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus.
