Exploring the tymovirids landscape through metatranscriptomics data [PDF]

Archives of Virology, 2021
Abstract Tymovirales is an order of viruses with positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genomes that mostly infect plants, but also fungi and insects. The number of tymovirid sequences has been growing in the last few years with the extensive use of high-throughput sequencing platforms.

Metatranscriptomic census of active protists in soils [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2015
Abstract The high numbers and diversity of protists in soil systems have long been presumed, but their true diversity and community composition have remained largely concealed. Traditional cultivation-based methods miss a majority of taxa, whereas molecular barcoding approaches employing PCR introduce significant biases in reported ...

The Viral Fraction Metatranscriptomes of Lake Baikal

Microorganisms, 2022
This article characterises viral fraction metatranscriptomes (smaller than 0.2 µm) from the pelagic zone of oligotrophic Lake Baikal (Russia). The study revealed the dominance of transcripts of DNA viruses: bacteriophages and algal viruses. We identified transcripts similar to Pithovirus sibericum, a nucleocytoplasmic large DNA virus (NCLDV) isolated ...

Transcriptional Landscape of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi and Their Host Provides Insight into N Uptake from Forest Soil

mSystems, 2022
Mineral nitrogen (N) is a major nutrient showing strong fluctuations in the environment due to anthropogenic activities. The acquisition and translocation of N to forest trees are achieved mainly by highly diverse ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) living in ...

Advances and Challenges in Metatranscriptomic Analysis

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
Sequencing-based analyses of microbiomes have traditionally focused on addressing the question of community membership and profiling taxonomic abundance through amplicon sequencing of 16 rRNA genes. More recently, shotgun metagenomics, which involves the random sequencing of all genomic content of a microbiome, has dominated this arena due to ...

MetaTrans: an open-source pipeline for metatranscriptomics [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractTo date, meta-omic approaches use high-throughput sequencing technologies, which produce a huge amount of data, thus challenging modern computers. Here we present MetaTrans, an efficient open-source pipeline to analyze the structure and functions of active microbial communities using the power of multi-threading computers.

Metatranscriptomic Signatures Associated With Phytoplankton Regime Shift From Diatom Dominance to a Dinoflagellate Bloom

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Diatoms and dinoflagellates dominate coastal marine phytoplankton communities as major players of marine biogeochemical cycles and their seasonal succession often leads to harmful algal blooms (HABs).

Archaea: An under-estimated kingdom in livestock animals

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Archaea are considered an essential group of gut microorganisms in both humans and animals. However, they have been neglected in previous studies, especially those involving non-ruminants.

Metatranscriptome of the Oral Microbiome in Health and Disease [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, 2018
The last few decades have witnessed an increasing interest in studying the human microbiome and its role in health and disease. The focus of those studies was mainly the characterization of changes in the composition of the microbial communities under different conditions.

Relating the metatranscriptome and metagenome of the human gut [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
SignificanceRecent years have seen incredible growth in both the scale and specificity of projects analyzing the microbial organisms living in and on the human body (the human microbiome). Such studies typically require subjects to report to clinics for sample collection, a complicated practice that is impractical for large studies.
