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.

Resilient microorganisms in dust samples of the International Space Station—survival of the adaptation specialists

TL;DR: A profound resistance capacity of ISS microorganisms against environmental stresses, and the presence of archaeal signatures on board are revealed.

Effects of ursodeoxycholic acid on the gut microbiome and colorectal adenoma development.

TL;DR: Daily UDCA use modestly influences the relative abundance of microbial species in stool and affects the microbial network composition with suggestive evidence for sex‐specific effects of UDCA on stool microbial community composition as a modifier of colorectal adenoma risk.

Fungal Traits Important for Soil Aggregation.

TL;DR: The results point to a typical suite of traits characterizing fungi that are good soil aggregators, and the power of employing a trait-based approach to unravel biological mechanisms underpinning soil aggregation could now be extended also to other soil biota groups.

Tools for Analysis of the Microbiome.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the methods, technologies, computational tools, and model systems for characterizing and studying the microbiome and discusses important considerations investigators must make when interrogating the involvement of the microbiome in health and disease in order to establish robust results and mechanistic insights before moving into therapeutic design and intervention.

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.

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.
