Current Knowledge and Computational Techniques for Grapevine Meta-Omics Analysis
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Growing grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is a key contribution to the economy of many countries. Tools provided by genomics and bioinformatics did help researchers in obtaining biological knowledge about the different cultivars.

Metatranscriptomic exploration of microbial functioning in clouds [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractClouds constitute the uppermost layer of the biosphere. They host diverse communities whose functioning remains obscure, although biological activity potentially participates to atmospheric chemical and physical processes. In order to gain information on the metabolic functioning of microbial communities in clouds, we conducted coordinated ...

Over two decades of research on the marine RNA virosphere
iMeta, 2022 RNA viruses (realm: Riboviria), including RNA phages and eukaryote‐infecting RNA viruses, are essential components of marine ecosystems. A large number of marine RNA viruses have been discovered in the last two decades because of the rapid development of

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The postmortem microbiome has recently moved to the forefront of forensic research, and many studies have focused on the idea that predictable fluctuations in decomposer communities could be used as a “microbial clock” to determine time of death ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Mammalian herbivores rely on microbial activities in an expanded gut chamber to convert plant biomass into absorbable nutrients. Distinct from ruminants, small herbivores typically have a simple stomach but an enlarged cecum to harbor symbiotic microbes;

SAMSA: a comprehensive metatranscriptome analysis pipeline
BMC Bioinformatics, 2016 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.

Directed Culturing of Microorganisms Using Metatranscriptomics [PDF]
mBio, 2011 ABSTRACT The vast majority of bacterial species remain uncultured, and this severely limits the investigation of their physiology, metabolic capabilities, and role in the environment. High-throughput sequencing of RNA transcripts (RNA-seq) allows the investigation of the diverse physiologies from uncultured ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

The occurrence of banana Fusarium wilt aggravates antibiotic resistance genes dissemination in soil
Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyThe spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and subsequent soil-borne disease outbreaks are major threats to soil health and sustainable crop production.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An optimized single‐cell transcriptomic framework profiles over 60 000 cells to map the ovine rumen microbiome, partitioning the ecosystem into seven cross‐species functional clusters. In heat‐resistant hosts, a lineage‐specific metabolic shift in Anaerovibrio lipolyticus toward a highly glycolytic phenotype contributes to a “nutritional sparing ...
