Differential abundance analysis for microbial marker-gene surveys
TLDR
It is shown that metagenomeSeq outperforms the tools currently used in this field and relies on a novel normalization technique and a statistical model that accounts for undersampling in large-scale marker-gene studies.Abstract:
We introduce a methodology to assess differential abundance in sparse high-throughput microbial marker-gene survey data. Our approach, implemented in the metagenomeSeq Bioconductor package, relies on a novel normalization technique and a statistical model that accounts for undersampling-a common feature of large-scale marker-gene studies. Using simulated data and several published microbiota data sets, we show that metagenomeSeq outperforms the tools currently used in this field.read more

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a prospectively recruited cohort of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and unrelated healthy control patients (n = 18) to examine the spatial and temporal distribution of microbiota within the various oral microenvironments, represented by saliva, tongue, buccal mucosa, and plaque, and compared them with stool.

Bacterial Communities in Concrete Reflect Its Composite Nature and Change with Weathering.
TL;DR: In this paper, a 16S amplicon study was used to show how microbial communities change over 2 years of outdoor weathering in two sets of concrete cylinders, one prone to the concrete-degrading alkali-silica reaction (ASR) and the other having the risk of the ASR mitigated.

HARMONIES: A Hybrid Approach for Microbiome Networks Inference via Exploiting Sparsity
TL;DR: A general framework, HARMONIES, a Hybrid Approach foR MicrobiOme Network Inferences via Exploiting Sparsity to infer a sparse microbiome network is proposed, which infers a sparse and stable network by imposing non-trivial regularizations based on the Gaussian graphical model.

Divergent belowground carbon allocation patterns of winter wheat shape rhizosphere microbial communities and nitrogen cycling activities
TL;DR: In this article , the root architecture, rhizodeposit C, and microbial community structure and function across a breeding gradient of twelve winter wheat genotypes were evaluated and examined how these rhizosphere traits were related to the availability and uptake of N from fresh cover crop residues in the soil.

edgeR: a Bioconductor package for differential expression analysis of digital gene expression data.
TL;DR: EdgeR as mentioned in this paper is a Bioconductor software package for examining differential expression of replicated count data, which uses an overdispersed Poisson model to account for both biological and technical variability and empirical Bayes methods are used to moderate the degree of overdispersion across transcripts, improving the reliability of inference.

Naïve Bayesian Classifier for Rapid Assignment of rRNA Sequences into the New Bacterial Taxonomy
TL;DR: The RDP Classifier can rapidly and accurately classify bacterial 16S rRNA sequences into the new higher-order taxonomy proposed in Bergey's Taxonomic Outline of the Prokaryotes, and the majority of the classification errors appear to be due to anomalies in the current taxonomies.

TL;DR: A new method for metagenomic biomarker discovery is described and validates by way of class comparison, tests of biological consistency and effect size estimation to address the challenge of finding organisms, genes, or pathways that consistently explain the differences between two or more microbial communities.
