Microbial Biodiversity and Molecular Approach [PDF]
Biodiversity is given by the variety of species on Earth resulting from billions of years of evolution. Molecular-phylogenetic studies have revealed that the main diversity of life is microbial and it is distributed among three domains: Achaea, Bacteria,

Coral reefs are highly diverse marine ecosystems increasingly threatened on a global scale. The foundation species of reef ecosystems are stony corals that depend on their symbiotic microalgae and bacteria for aspects of their metabolism, immunity, and ...

Evolution of the Quorum Sensing Regulon in Cooperating Populations of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
In the opportunistic pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa acyl-homoserine lactone quorum sensing (QS) can activate expression of dozens to hundreds of genes depending on the strain under investigation.

Illuminating the Plant Rhabdovirus Landscape through Metatranscriptomics Data
Rhabdoviruses infect a large number of plant species and cause significant crop diseases. They have a negative-sense, single-stranded unsegmented or bisegmented RNA genome.

Advances and Challenges in Metatranscriptomic Analysis
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 ...

Mosquitoes are major infectious disease-carrying vectors. Assessment of current and future risks associated with the mosquito population requires knowledge of the full repertoire of pathogens they carry, including novel viruses, as well as their blood ...

Metatranscriptomics has emerged as a very useful technology for the study of microbiomes from RNA-seq reads. This method provides additional information compared to the sequencing of ribosomal genes because the gene expression can also be analysed.

Targeted metatranscriptomics of compost derived consortia reveals a GH11 exerting an unusual exo-1,4-β-xylanase activity [PDF]
Background: Using globally abundant crop residues as a carbon source for energy generation and renewable chemicals production stands out as a promising solution to reduce current dependency on fossil fuels.

Metatranscriptomic census of active protists in soils [PDF]
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 ...

Dinucleotide distance histograms for fast detection of rRNA in metatranscriptomic sequences [PDF]
With the advent of metatranscriptomics it has now become possible to study the dynamics of microbial communities. The analysis of environmental RNA-Seq data implies several challenges for the development of efficient tools in bioinformatics.
