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.

Protistan Predators Outshine Fungi in Forest Soil Activity

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on fungal communities in forest soils, our understanding of the whole eukaryotic diversity and distribution remains limited. Moreover, traditional amplicon sequencing methods often introduce severe PCR and primer biases, further hindering accurate assessment of the microbial community composition in forest soils.

Deciphering the “Missing Xenon Paradox” in Celestial Bodies: A Multifaceted Perspective Toward Demystifying This Enigma

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Xenon (Xe) is a heavy noble gas with intriguing chemical properties, such as having several stable isotopes and the ability to form compounds under extreme conditions. Despite the predictions based on cosmochemical models that suggest xenon should be relatively abundant in planetary reservoirs, empirical data indicate a significant depletion ...
