Metatranscriptome profiling of a harmful algal bloom [PDF]
Metagenomic methods provide a powerful means to investigate complex ecological phenomena. Developed originally for study of Bacteria and Archaea, the application of these methods to eukaryotic microorganisms is yet to be fully realized. Most prior environmental molecular studies of eukaryotes have relied heavily on PCR amplification with eukaryote ...

SAMSA: a comprehensive metatranscriptome analysis pipeline
Abstract Background Although metatranscriptomics—the study of diverse microbial population activity based on RNA-seq data—is rapidly growing in popularity, there are limited options for biologists to analyze this type of data.

Methodologies for probing the metatranscriptome of grassland soil [PDF]
Metatranscriptomics provides an opportunity to identify active microbes and expressed genes in complex soil communities in response to particular conditions. Currently, there are a limited number of soil metatranscriptome studies to provide guidance for using this approach in this challenging matrix.

ABSTRACT The increased use of agrochemicals to enhance crop production has had detrimental environmental effects including implication in the sharp decline of North American farmland‐breeding birds. Here, using a combination of deep shotgun metatranscriptomics and pesticide exposure data, we sought to assess whether exposure to cotton (Gossypium spp ...

Viral community-wide auxiliary metabolic genes differ by lifestyles, habitats, and hosts
Background Viral-encoded auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) are important toolkits for modulating their hosts’ metabolisms and the microbial-driven biogeochemical cycles.

Tunicates are a key transitional taxon in animal evolution as the closest extant invertebrate relatives of the vertebrates. Their RNA viruses may also reflect this transitional state, but this has not been tested.

Mycoplankton are widespread components of marine ecosystems, yet the full extent of their functional role remains poorly known. Marine mycoplankton are likely functionally analogous to their terrestrial counterparts, including performing saprotrophy and ...

FcεRI cross‐linking triggers widespread transcriptional reprogramming in human skin mast cells (> 5000 genes, > 6400 promoters, and 48 novel mast cell‐enriched lncRNAs). Breast skin and foreskin mast cells share core transcriptional programs but differ selectively in tryptase isoenzymes and IL‐8/IL‐1RA release.
