EMPeror: a tool for visualizing high-throughput microbial community data

TL;DR: Here the authors present EMPeror, an open source and web browser enabled tool with a versatile command line interface that allows researchers to perform rapid exploratory investigations of 3D visualizations of microbial community data, such as the widely used principal coordinates plots.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for a persistent microbial seed bank throughout the global ocean

TL;DR: A deep bacterial community characterization from one site in the English Channel with 356 datasets from the International Census of Marine Microbes taken from around the globe suggests the marine biosphere maintains a previously undetected, persistent microbial seed bank.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replenishing our defensive microbes.

TL;DR: Beneficial microbes associated with pathogen resistance are reviewed, highlighting the emerging role of complex microbial communities in protecting against disease and prospects for reintroducing or encouraging the growth of beneficial microbes to promote the restoration of healthy microbial ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identifying novel sequence variants of RNA 3D motifs

TL;DR: New probabilistic models for 3D motif sequences based on hybrid Stochastic Context-Free Grammars and Markov Random Fields and SCFG/MRF are developed and validated and are available free for download.
