Metagenomics: Microbial diversity through a scratched lens

Creator:

Temperton, Ben and Giovannoni, Stephen J.

Abstract:

Since nucleic acids were first extracted directly from the environment and sequenced, metagenomics has grown to one of the most data-rich and pervasive techniques for understanding the taxonomic and functional diversity of microbial communities. In the last decade, cheaper sequencing has democratized the application of metagenomics and generated billions of...

Streamlining and Core Genome Conservation among Highly Divergent Members of the SAR11 Clade

Creator:

Grote, Jana, Thrash, J. Cameron, Huggett, Megan J., Landry, Zachary C., Carini, Paul, Giovannoni, Stephen J., and Rappe, Michael S.

Abstract:

SAR11 is an ancient and diverse clade of heterotrophic bacteria that are abundant throughout the world's oceans, where they play a major role in the ocean carbon cycle. Correlations between the phylogenetic branching order and spatiotemporal patterns in cell distributions from planktonic ocean environments indicate that SAR11 has evolved into...
