Longitudinal study of the scalp microbiome suggests coconut oil to enrich healthy scalp commensals
Dandruff is a recurrent chronic scalp disorder, affecting majority of the population worldwide. Recently a metagenomic study of the Indian scalp microbiome described an imperative role of bacterial commensals in providing essential vitamins and amino ...

A pipeline for targeted metagenomics of environmental bacteria. [PDF]
BackgroundMetagenomics and single cell genomics provide a window into the genetic repertoire of yet uncultivated microorganisms, but both methods are usually taxonomically untargeted.

KrakenUniq: confident and fast metagenomics classification using unique k-mer counts
False-positive identifications are a significant problem in metagenomics classification. We present KrakenUniq, a novel metagenomics classifier that combines the fast k-mer-based classification of Kraken with an efficient algorithm for assessing the ...

Open resource metagenomics: a model for sharing metagenomic libraries [PDF]
Both sequence-based and activity-based exploitation of environmental DNA have provided unprecedented access to the genomic content of cultivated and uncultivated microorganisms. Although researchers deposit microbial strains in culture collections and DNA sequences in databases, activity-based metagenomic studies typically only publish sequences from ...

Gut Microbiota‐Butyrate‐PPARγ Axis Modulates Adipose Regulatory T Cell Population
This study identifies the indispensable role of gut microbiota in the maintenance of ST2+ adipose Treg cell population, and defines gut microbiota‐derived butyrate as an endogenous PPARγ agonist, modulating adipose Treg cell populations via promoting PPARγ activation. Butyrate or fiber supplementation restores the VAT ST2+ Treg population in obese mice

We developed a tool to get high‐quality genomes with high taxonomic resolution by combining the cobarcoding information with public references. Compared with the conventional combination strategies, our pipeline generated a large number of high‐quality genomes for the human microbial cobarcoding data sets. Abstract Metagenomic evidence of great genetic

Metagenomic screening of the sugarcane virome in Florida. [P.36] [PDF]
Viral metagenomics has revolutionized the way pathologists decipher viral diseases. While the impact of this new approach is still debatable in plant virus diagnostics, viral metagenomics has already produced key advances in viral ecology and has the ...

Pairwise and incremental multi-stage alignment of metagenomes: A new proposal [PDF]
Traditional comparisons between metagenomes are often performed using reference databases as intermediary templates from which to obtain distance metrics.

Consensus statement: Virus taxonomy in the age of metagenomics
The number and diversity of viral sequences that are identified in metagenomic data far exceeds that of experimentally characterized virus isolates. In a recent workshop, a panel of experts discussed the proposal that, with appropriate quality control ...
