Metagenomic discovery of microbial eukaryotes in stool microbiomes [PDF]

mBio
Host-associated microbiota form complex microbial communities that are increasingly associated with host behavior and disease. While these microbes include bacterial, archaeal, viral, and eukaryotic constituents, most studies have focused on bacteria due

Missing microbial eukaryotes and misleading meta-omic conclusions [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2023
Meta-omics is commonly used for large-scale analyses of microbial eukaryotes, including species or taxonomic group distribution mapping, gene catalog construction, and inference on the functional roles and activities of microbial eukaryotes in situ. Here,

Microbial Eukaryotes Associated With Sediments in Deep-Sea Cold Seeps [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Microbial eukaryotes are key components of the marine food web, but their distribution in deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems has not been well studied. Here, high-throughput sequencing of the 18S rRNA gene and network analysis were applied to investigate

Accurate and sensitive detection of microbial eukaryotes from whole metagenome shotgun sequencing [PDF]

Microbiome, 2021
Background Microbial eukaryotes are found alongside bacteria and archaea in natural microbial systems, including host-associated microbiomes. While microbial eukaryotes are critical to these communities, they are challenging to study with shotgun ...

DNA extraction bias is more pronounced for microbial eukaryotes than for prokaryotes [PDF]

MicrobiologyOpen, 2022
DNA extraction and preservation bias is a recurring topic in DNA sequencing‐based microbial ecology. The different methodologies can lead to distinct outcomes, which has been demonstrated especially in studies investigating prokaryotic community ...

A single-cell genomics pipeline for environmental microbial eukaryotes [PDF]

iScience, 2021
Summary: Single-cell sequencing of environmental microorganisms is an essential component of the microbial ecology toolkit. However, large-scale targeted single-cell sequencing for the whole-genome recovery of uncultivated eukaryotes is lagging.

Genetic Diversity, Community Assembly, and Shaping Factors of Benthic Microbial Eukaryotes in Dongshan Bay, Southeast China [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Microbial eukaryotes are pivotal components of marine ecosystems. However, compared with the pelagic environments, the diversity distribution and the driving mechanisms of microbial eukaryotes in the marine sediments have rarely been explored.

An efficient single-cell transcriptomics workflow for microbial eukaryotes benchmarked on Giardia intestinalis cells [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Most diversity in the eukaryotic tree of life is represented by microbial eukaryotes, which is a polyphyletic group also referred to as protists.

Microbial Eukaryotes: a Missing Link in Gut Microbiome Studies [PDF]

mSystems, 2018
Human-associated microbial communities include prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms across high-level clades of the tree of life. While advances in high-throughput sequencing technology allow for the study of diverse lineages, the vast majority of ...
