SAMSA2: a standalone metatranscriptome analysis pipeline [PDF]
Background Complex microbial communities are an area of growing interest in biology. Metatranscriptomics allows researchers to quantify microbial gene expression in an environmental sample via high-throughput sequencing.

Low Abundance Taxa Show Diverse Microbial Symbiotic Interactions With the Freshwater Sponge, Radiospongilla crateriformis, Pre and Post Gemmulation. [PDF]
The microbiome profile of freshwater sponges did not broadly change in taxonomy or functional profile based on metatranscriptome analysis prior to and after formation of sponge dormant bodies (gemmules). Results highlight a subset of taxa that likely associate with the sponge host in different ways from facultative to long‐term symbionts.

Multi-Omic Insights Into Mediterranean Diet-Associated Microbiota. [PDF]
Mediterranean diet (MD) influences the composition of the gut mycobiome. Key foods of MD are related to bacterial and fungal composition. Combining metagenomics and metatranscriptomics tracks the gene expression profiles of gut microbiota. Metatranscriptomics identifies the transcriptionally active members of the microbiota that overexpressed genes ...

MetaGT: A pipeline for de novo assembly of metatranscriptomes with the aid of metagenomic data
While metagenome sequencing may provide insights on the genome sequences and composition of microbial communities, metatranscriptome analysis can be useful for studying the functional activity of a microbiome.

Sizing up metatranscriptomics [PDF]
Abstract A typical marine bacterial cell in coastal seawater contains only ∼200 molecules of mRNA, each of which lasts only a few minutes before being degraded. Such a surprisingly small and dynamic cellular mRNA reservoir has important implications for understanding the bacterium’s responses to environmental signals, as well as for ...

Open-ocean surface waters host a diverse community of single-celled eukaryotic plankton (protists) consisting of phototrophs, heterotrophs, and mixotrophs. The productivity and biomass of these organisms oscillate over diel cycles, and yet the underlying

L. rhamnosus CNCM I-3690 survival, adaptation, and small bowel microbiome impact in human
Fermented foods and beverages are a significant source of dietary bacteria that enter the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. However, little is known about how these microbes survive and adapt to the small intestinal environment.
