Viruses in Horses with Neurologic and Respiratory Diseases. [PDF]
, 2019 Metagenomics was used to identify viral sequences in the plasma and CSF (cerobrospinal fluid) of 13 horses with unexplained neurological signs and in the plasma and respiratory swabs of 14 horses with unexplained respiratory signs. Equine hepacivirus and

Metagenome assembly of high-fidelity long reads with hifiasm-meta [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Current metagenome assemblers developed for short sequence reads or noisy long readswere not optimized for accurate long reads. Here we describe hifiasm-meta, a new metagenome assembler that exploits the high accuracy of recent data. Evaluated on seven empirical datasets, hifiasm-meta reconstructed tens to hundreds of complete circular bacterial ...

Methodology and ontology in microbiome research [PDF]
, 2014 Research on the human microbiome has gen- erated a staggering amount of sequence data, revealing variation in microbial diversity at the community, species (or phylotype), and genomic levels. In order to make this complexity more manageable and easier to

Combined analysis of microbial metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing data to assess in situ physiological conditions in the premature infant gut. [PDF]
, 2020 Microbes alter their transcriptomic profiles in response to the environment. The physiological conditions experienced by a microbial community can thus be inferred using meta-transcriptomic sequencing by comparing transcription levels of specifically ...

Methods for comparative metagenomics [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2009 Metagenomics is a rapidly growing field of research that aims at studying uncultured organisms to understand the true diversity of microbes, their functions, cooperation and evolution, in environments such as soil, water, ancient remains of animals, or the digestive system of animals and humans.

Investigating Colonization of the Healthy Adult Gastrointestinal Tract by Fungi
mSphere, 2018 A wide diversity of fungi have been detected in the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract with the potential to provide or influence important functions. However, many of the fungi most commonly detected in stool samples are also present in food or the oral ...
