Reconstructing rare soil microbial genomes using in situ enrichments and metagenomics
Despite extensive direct sequencing efforts and advanced analytical tools, reconstructing microbial genomes from soil using metagenomics have been challenging due to the tremendous diversity and relatively uniform distribution of genomes found in this system. Here we used enrichment techniques in an attempt to decrease the complexity of a soil microbiome prior to sequencing by submitting it to ...
متن کاملMetagenomics and Microbial Communities
Metagenomics is the genomic analysis of microbial communities. This new science provides access to organisms that are recalcitrant to culturing, as are the vastmajority of microorganismsonEarth.Metagenomics therebyoffers a first peek at thewide varietyof life that has never been studied, thus providing new insight into the structure and function of ecosystems as diverse as the oceans and the hu...
متن کاملOcean microbial metagenomics
Technology for accessing the genomic DNA of microorganisms, directly from environmental samples without prior cultivation, has opened new vistas to understanding microbial diversity and functions. Especially as applied to soils and the oceans, environments on Earth where microbial diversity is vast, metagenomics and its emergent approaches have the power to transform rapidly our understanding o...
متن کاملMetagenomics: Inferring Microbial Function
Background: The number of prokaryotic genome sequences becoming available is growing steadily and is growing faster than our ability to accurately annotate them. Description: We describe a fully automated service for annotating bacterial and archaeal genomes. The service identifies protein-encoding, rRNA and tRNA genes, assigns functions to the genes, predicts which subsystems are represented i...
