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 ...

Pattern-Recognition Receptors and Cervical Microbiome in Patients with Early Miscarriages

open access: yesInternational Journal of Inflammation
Early miscarriages are one of the main causes of reproductive losses. The objective of this study was to estimate Toll- and NOD-like receptors mRNA expression levels and their correlation with microbiome composition in the endocervix of patients with 1st

The gut mycobiome of the Human Microbiome Project healthy cohort

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2017
Background Most studies describing the human gut microbiome in healthy and diseased states have emphasized the bacterial component, but the fungal microbiome (i.e., the mycobiome) is beginning to gain recognition as a fundamental part of our microbiome ...

Hydrogen cyanide in the rhizosphere: not suppressing plant pathogens, but rather regulating availability of phosphate

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria produce chemical compounds with different benefits for the plant. Among them, HCN is recognized as a biocontrol agent, based on its ascribed toxicity against plant pathogens.

Steps in Metagenomics: Let’s Avoid Garbage in and Garbage Out [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Is metagenomics a revolution or a new fad? Metagenomics is tightly associated with the availability of next-generation sequencing in all its implementations.

454-Pyrosequencing: A Molecular Battiscope for Freshwater Viral Ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Viruses, the most abundant biological entities on the planet, are capable of infecting organisms from all three branches of life, although the majority infect bacteria where the greatest degree of cellular diversity lies.

Complementary Metagenomic Approaches Improve Reconstruction of Microbial Diversity in a Forest Soil. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Soil ecosystems harbor diverse microorganisms and yet remain only partially characterized as neither single-cell sequencing nor whole-community sequencing offers a complete picture of these complex communities.

Metagenomic screening of the sugarcane virome in Florida. [P.36] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...

Environmental shaping of codon usage and functional adaptation across microbial communities. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Microbial communities represent the largest portion of the Earth's biomass. Metagenomics projects use high-throughput sequencing to survey these communities and shed light on genetic capabilities that enable microbes to inhabit every corner of the ...
