Comparative Fungal Community Analyses Using Metatranscriptomics and Internal Transcribed Spacer Amplicon Sequencing from Norway Spruce

mSystems, 2021
The health, growth, and fitness of boreal forest trees are impacted and improved by their associated microbiomes. Microbial gene expression and functional activity can be assayed with RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data from host samples.

Current concepts, advances, and challenges in deciphering the human microbiota with metatranscriptomics

, 2023
Metatranscriptomics refers to the analysis of the collective microbial tran-scriptome of a sample. Its increased utilization for the characterization of human-associated microbial communities has enabled the discovery of many disease-state related ...

Using omics and integrated multi-omics approaches to guide probiotic selection to mitigate chytridiomycosis and other emerging infectious diseases

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Emerging infectious diseases in wildlife are responsible for massive population declines. In amphibians, chytridiomycosis caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, Bd, has severely affected many amphibian populations and species around the world.

Regulatory Noncoding Small RNAs Are Diverse and Abundant in an Extremophilic Microbial Community

mSystems, 2020
Regulatory small RNAs (sRNAs) play large-scale and essential roles in many cellular processes across all domains of life. Microbial sRNAs have been extensively studied in model organisms, but very little is known about the dynamics of sRNA synthesis and ...

Pathway-Centric Analysis of Microbial Metabolic Potential and Expression Along Nutrient and Energy Gradients in the Western Atlantic Ocean

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Microbial communities play integral roles in driving nutrient and energy transformations in the ocean, collectively contributing to fundamental biogeochemical cycles. Although it is well known that these communities are stratified within the water column,

DNA/RNA Preservation in Glacial Snow and Ice Samples

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The preservation of nucleic acids for high-throughput sequencing is an ongoing challenge for field scientists. In particular, samples that are low biomass, or that have to be collected and preserved in logistically challenging environments (such as ...

Transcriptional Shifts Highlight the Role of Nutrients in Harmful Brown Tide Dynamics

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) threaten ecosystems and human health worldwide. Controlling nitrogen inputs to coastal waters is a common HAB management strategy, as nutrient concentrations often suggest coastal blooms are nitrogen-limited. However, defining

Structured RNA Contaminants in Bacterial Ribo-Seq

mSphere, 2020
Ribosome profiling (Ribo-Seq) is a powerful method to study translation in bacteria. However, Ribo-Seq signal can be observed across RNAs that one would not expect to be bound by ribosomes.
