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.

A core microbiota dominates a rich microbial diversity in the bovine udder and may indicate presence of dysbiosis.

TL;DR: The overall composition of the udder microbiota was highly diverse and significantly different between cows and between quarter milk samples from the same cow, and a novel definition of a dysbiotic quarter at individual cow level was introduced by analyzing the milk microbiota.

Comparison of the oral microbiome in mouthwash and whole saliva samples

TL;DR: Results show that mouthwash samples perform similarly to saliva samples for analysis of the oral microbiome, and are also a resource suitable for human microbiome research.

The Intestinal Eukaryotic and Bacterial Biome of Spotted Hyenas: The Impact of Social Status and Age on Diversity and Composition.

TL;DR: It is proposed that free-ranging wildlife can provide an intriguing model system to assess the adaptive value of intestinal biome diversity for both bacteria and eukaryote in high-ranking than low-ranking animals.

Effects of prescription antibiotics on soil- and root-associated microbiomes and resistomes in an agricultural context

TL;DR: The use of treated wastewater for crop irrigation is rapidly increasing to respond to the ever-growing demands for water and food resources, but this practice may contribute to the spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) in agricultural settings, constituting a potential risk for human consumers.

DNA metabarcoding reveals organisms contributing to particulate matter flux to abyssal depths in the North East Pacific ocean

TL;DR: This paper used DNA metabarcoding of 16S and 18S rRNA genes to investigate the community in sinking particulates collected over 9-months (November 2016-July 2017) at Station M, located within the California Current ecosystem.

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.
