Editorial: Microbial Taxonomy, Phylogeny and Biodiversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The great diversity of microbial life is the remaining majorreservoir of unknown biologicaldiversity on Earth. To understand this vast, but largely unperceived diversity with its untappedgenetic, enzymatic and industrial potential, microbial systematics ...

Deciphering the Urinary Microbiota Repertoire by Culturomics Reveals Mostly Anaerobic Bacteria From the Gut

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Human urine was considered sterile for a long time. However, 416 species have been previously cultured, including only 40 anaerobic species. Here, we used culturomics, particularly those targeting anaerobes, to better understand the urinary microbiota ...

A probabilistic model for gene content evolution with duplication, loss, and horizontal transfer

open access: yes, 2005
We introduce a Markov model for the evolution of a gene family along a phylogeny. The model includes parameters for the rates of horizontal gene transfer, gene duplication, and gene loss, in addition to branch lengths in the phylogeny. The likelihood for

Ciliate Environmental Diversity Can Be Underestimated by the V4 Region of SSU rDNA: Insights from Species Delimitation and Multilocus Phylogeny of Pseudokeronopsis (Protist, Ciliophora)

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Metabarcoding and high-throughput sequencing methods have greatly improved our understanding of protist diversity. Although the V4 region of small subunit ribosomal DNA (SSU-V4 rDNA) is the most widely used marker in DNA metabarcoding of eukaryotic ...

Usurpativirus massiliensis, a new giant virus related to clandestinovirus

open access: yesVirology Journal
Giant virus discovery in 2003 revolutionized the virus paradigm. In 2015, we introduced a new host, Vermamoeba vermiformis, that led to the discovery of Faustovirus, Orpheovirus and two giant viruses (Clandestinovirus and a faustovirus) having distinct ...
