DADA2: High-resolution sample inference from Illumina amplicon data

TLDR
The open-source software package DADA2 for modeling and correcting Illumina-sequenced amplicon errors is presented, revealing a diversity of previously undetected Lactobacillus crispatus variants.
Abstract
We present the open-source software package DADA2 for modeling and correcting Illumina-sequenced amplicon errors (https://github.com/benjjneb/dada2). DADA2 infers sample sequences exactly and resolves differences of as little as 1 nucleotide. In several mock communities, DADA2 identified more real variants and output fewer spurious sequences than other methods. We applied DADA2 to vaginal samples from a cohort of pregnant women, revealing a diversity of previously undetected Lactobacillus crispatus variants.

Fish Skin and Gut Microbiomes Show Contrasting Signatures of Host Species and Habitat

TL;DR: The results suggest that the variable skin mucus community is a relevant target for the development of microbial biomarkers of environmental status, while the more conserved gut microbiome is better suited to study long-term host-microbe interactions over evolutionary time scales.

Freshwater monitoring by nanopore sequencing

TL;DR: The MinION as mentioned in this paper is a pocket-sized device that can sequence genetic information on-the-go and can be used to detect bacterial species present in rivers, which has been used to monitor water quality in remote areas.

Host selection and stochastic effects influence bacterial community assembly on the microalgal phycosphere

TL;DR: Algal-associated bacterial communities are controlled by algal host, culture conditions, and the initial inoculum composition of the algal microbiome, and this knowledge can inform the engineering of more productive algal systems.

Microbial niches in raw ingredients determine microbial community assembly during kimchi fermentation.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the raw ingredient microbial habitat niches selectively affect microbial community assembly patterns and processes during kimchi fermentation.

Impact of land uses, drought, flood, wildfire, and cascading events on water quality and microbial communities: A review and analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a review of the potential impacts of climate-related extreme events (i.e., drought, flood, and wildfires) on different water quality indicators and the potential impact of cascading extreme events on dynamics of water quality behavior.

UCHIME improves sensitivity and speed of chimera detection

TL;DR: UCHIME has better sensitivity than ChimeraSlayer (previously the most sensitive database method), especially with short, noisy sequences, and in testing on artificial bacterial communities with known composition, UCHIME de novo sensitivity is shown to be comparable to Perseus.

UPARSE: highly accurate OTU sequences from microbial amplicon reads

Robert C. Edgar
- 01 Oct 2013 - 
TL;DR: The UPARSE pipeline reports operational taxonomic unit (OTU) sequences with ≤1% incorrect bases in artificial microbial community tests, compared with >3% correct bases commonly reported by other methods.

Structure, function and diversity of the healthy human microbiome

Curtis Huttenhower, +253 more
- 14 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: The Human Microbiome Project Consortium reported the first results of their analysis of microbial communities from distinct, clinically relevant body habitats in a human cohort; the insights into the microbial communities of a healthy population lay foundations for future exploration of the epidemiology, ecology and translational applications of the human microbiome as discussed by the authors.
