Journal ArticleDOI

Diet drives convergence in gut microbiome functions across mammalian phylogeny and within humans

TL;DR: The value of characterizing vertebrate gut microbiomes to understand host evolutionary histories at a supraorganismal level is illustrated by shotgun sequencing of microbial community DNA and targeted sequencing of bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bayesian community-wide culture-independent microbial source tracking

TL;DR: SourceTracker, a Bayesian approach to estimate the proportion of contaminants in a given community that come from possible source environments, is presented, and microbial surveys from neonatal intensive care units, offices and molecular biology laboratories are applied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using QIIME to analyze 16S rRNA gene sequences from Microbial Communities

TL;DR: The following protocols describe how to install QIIME on a single computer and use it to analyze microbial 16S sequence data from nine distinct microbial communities.
