Antarctic soil microbiomes encode structurally conserved and phylogenetically diverse beta‐lactamases

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
An integrative metagenomic framework combining sequence, structural, and functional inference reveals a phylogenetically diverse and structurally conserved repertoire of putative beta‐lactamases across Antarctic soil microbiomes, with predominance of class A and subclass B3 enzymes and limited but detectable associations with mobile genetic elements ...

Effects of heat-assisted sample desiccation on microbiome surveys

Environmental Microbiome
Sample preservation remains a challenge in microbiome surveys, particularly in remote areas. Drying samples eliminates the need for cold chains and preservatives, but sophisticated desiccation tools such as lyophilization are impractical in the field ...

Diverse and unconventional methanogens, methanotrophs, and methylotrophs in metagenome-assembled genomes from subsurface sediments of the Slate River floodplain, Crested Butte, CO, USA

mSystems
We use metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) to understand single-carbon (C1) compound-cycling—particularly methane-cycling—microorganisms in montane riparian floodplain sediments.

Warm‐wet transition restructures arid lake microbiomes and functional potential

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
This study summarizes how a long‐term warm‐dry to warm‐wet transition restructures microbiomes and functional potential in Lake Bosten, an arid lake in northwestern China. Warm‐wet hydroclimatic change increased water level and hydrological connectivity, while decreasing salinity and total nitrogen.

Viruses in the sediments around the trenches harbor diverse survival mechanisms

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
Deep‐sea trenches are the deepest and most isolated environments in the global ocean but the diversity and adaptation of the viral communities remain poorly characterized. In this study, 5563 viral operational taxonomic units (vOTUs) were identified from sediments of the Yap Trench and Western Caroline Basin.

Why and how to use the SeqCode

mLife
The SeqCode, formally called the Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes Described from Sequence Data, is a new code of nomenclature in which genome sequences are the nomenclatural types for the names of prokaryotic species.

Evidence tiers for strain‐resolved long‐read metagenomics

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
Long‐read metagenomics links variants, repeats, and mobile elements across individual molecules and can reveal lineage turnover that is obscured at the species level. The strength of the resulting inference, however, depends on the type and genomic span of the recovered linkage. We distinguish four evidence units—strain profiles, local haplotype blocks,

Twelve new metagenome-assembled genomes from non-axenic culture of Griffithsia monilis (Rhodophyta)

We report 12 metagenome-assembled genomes from a non-axenic culture of the red alga Griffithsia monilis Harvey, some of which are distantly related to publicly available ...

Artificial intelligence driven diet‐intestinal microbiota‐host health integration: A four‐dimensional paradigm for advancing host wellness research

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
This graphical abstract presents a novel Diet‐Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐intestinal Microbiota–Host Health paradigm integrating microbiota‐centric pathways and an AI‐driven multi‐omics workflow. Diet shapes gut bacteria that regulate intestinal mucosal integrity, immune signaling, and gut–brain neurotransmitters to influence host health.

Fathi Camel Microbiome Project (FCMP) Fecal Metagenome-assembled Genomes (MAGs)

<p>The Fathi Camel Microbiome Project (FCMP) aims to characterize the diversity and phenotypic associations of the dromedary camel microbiome. The gut microbiome of N = 55 camels was deeply sequenced via dropped stool. The raw reads, after QC, were
