Metagenomics Approaches for the Detection and Surveillance of Emerging and Recurrent Plant Pathogens
Microorganisms, 2021 Globalization has a dramatic effect on the trade and movement of seeds, fruits and vegetables, with a corresponding increase in economic losses caused by the introduction of transboundary plant pathogens.

Proteomics as the final step in the functional metagenomics study of antimicrobial resistance [PDF]
, 2015 peer-reviewedThe majority of clinically applied antimicrobial agents are derived from natural products generated by soil microorganisms and therefore resistance is likely to be ubiquitous in such environments.

Global monitoring of antimicrobial resistance based on metagenomics analyses of urban sewage
Nature Communications, 2019 Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, but obtaining representative data on AMR for healthy human populations is difficult. Here, we use metagenomic analysis of untreated sewage to characterize the bacterial resistome

From metagenomics to the metagenome: Conceptual change and the rhetoric of translational genomic research [PDF]
, 2009 As the international genomic research community moves from the tool-making efforts of the Human Genome Project into biomedical applications of those tools, new metaphors are being suggested as useful to understanding how our genes work – and for ...

DNA structure at the plasmid origin-of-transfer indicates its potential transfer range
Scientific Reports, 2018 Horizontal gene transfer via plasmid conjugation enables antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to spread among bacteria and is a major health concern. The range of potential transfer hosts of a particular conjugative plasmid is characterised by its mobility ...

BMC Genomics, 2023 Background While genome-resolved metagenomics has revolutionized our understanding of microbial and genetic diversity in environmental samples, assemblies of short-reads often result in incomplete and/or highly fragmented metagenome-assembled genomes ...

Population-based metagenomics analysis reveals markers for gut microbiome composition and diversity
Science, 2016 “Normal” for the gut microbiota For the benefit of future clinical studies, it is critical to establish what constitutes a “normal” gut microbiome, if it exists at all. Through fecal samples and questionnaires, Falony et al.

Giant virus diversity and host interactions through global metagenomics
Nature, 2020 Our current knowledge about nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) is largely derived from viral isolates that are co-cultivated with protists and algae.

Integrating Viral Metagenomics into an Ecological Framework.
Annual Review of Virology, 2021 Viral metagenomics has expanded our knowledge of the ecology of uncultured viruses, within both environmental (e.g., terrestrial and aquatic) and host-associated (e.g., plants and animals, including humans) contexts. Here, we emphasize the implementation

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
