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

Unraveling the Stratification of an Iron-Oxidizing Microbial Mat by Metatranscriptomics
International audienceA metatranscriptomic approach was used to study community gene expression in a naturally occurring iron-rich microbial mat. Total microbial community RNA was reversely transcribed and sequenced by pyrosequencing. Characterization of
