Differential Functional Constraints Cause Strain-Level Endemism in Polynucleobacter Populations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The adaptation of bacterial lineages to local environmental conditions creates the potential for broader genotypic diversity within a species, which can enable a species to dominate across ecological gradients because of niche flexibility.

Ecological and Genomic Attributes of Novel Bacterial Taxa That Thrive in Subsurface Soil Horizons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
While most bacterial and archaeal taxa living in surface soils remain undescribed, this problem is exacerbated in deeper soils, owing to the unique oligotrophic conditions found in the subsurface.

Analysis of composition-based metagenomic classification [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2012
An essential step of a metagenomic study is the taxonomic classification, that is, the identification of the taxonomic lineage of the organisms in a given sample. The taxonomic classification process involves a series of decisions. Currently, in the context of metagenomics, such decisions are usually based on empirical studies that consider one ...

Metagenomic Sequencing From Mosquitoes in China Reveals a Variety of Insect and Human Viruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
We collected 8,700 mosquitoes in three sites in China, which belonged to seven species. Their viromes were tested using metagenomic sequencing and bioinformatic analysis.
