Comparative Metagenomic Analysis of Chicken Gut Microbial Community, Function, and Resistome to Evaluate Noninvasive and Cecal Sampling Resources

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
When conducting metagenomic analysis on gut microbiomes, there is no general consensus concerning the mode of sampling: non-contact (feces), noninvasive (rectal swabs), or cecal.

Detection of the Microbial Composition of Some Commercial Fermented Liquid Products via Metagenomic Analysis

open access: yesFoods, 2023
The fermented liquid sector is developing all over the world due to its contribution to health. Our study has contributed to the debate about whether industrially manufactured fermented liquids live up to their claims by analyzing pathogens and ...

Mining virulence genes using metagenomics.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
When a bacterial genome is compared to the metagenome of an environment it inhabits, most genes recruit at high sequence identity. In free-living bacteria (for instance marine bacteria compared against the ocean metagenome) certain genomic regions are ...

Characteristics of Wetting-Induced Bacteriophage Blooms in Biological Soil Crust. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are photosynthetic "hot spots" in deserts and cover ∼12% of the Earth's terrestrial surface, and yet they face an uncertain future given expected shifts in rainfall events.

Microbial Relationship of Carious Deciduous Molars and Adjacent First Permanent Molars

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
(1) Epidemiological studies have shown that deciduous molar caries are related to and more severe than permanent molar caries. This study aimed to investigate whether caries subtypes in deciduous molars were associated with caries in first permanent ...

Genomic Inference of the Metabolism and Evolution of the Archaeal Phylum Aigarchaeota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Microbes of the phylum Aigarchaeota are widely distributed in geothermal environments, but their physiological and ecological roles are poorly understood.

Potential of Microbial Communities to Perform Dehalogenation Processes in Natural and Anthropogenically Modified Environments—A Metagenomic Study

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Halogenated organic compounds (HOCs) pose a serious problem for the environment. Many are highly toxic and accumulate both in soil and in organisms. Their biological transformation takes place by dehalogenation, in which the halogen substituents are ...

Spaced seeds improve k-mer-based metagenomic classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Metagenomics is a powerful approach to study genetic content of environmental samples that has been strongly promoted by NGS technologies. To cope with massive data involved in modern metagenomic projects, recent tools [4, 39] rely on the analysis of k ...

Open pangenome of Lactococcus lactis generated by a combination of metagenome-assembled genomes and isolate genomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) is a well isolated and cultured lactic acid bacterium, but if utilizing the isolate genomes alone, the genome-based analysis of this taxon would be incomplete, because there are still uncultured strains in some ecological ...
