TLDR
The metagenomically characterized the murine and human mucosal-associated gastrointestinal microbiome and found it to only partially correlate with stool microbiome, indicating that empiric probiotics supplementation may be limited in universally and persistently impacting the gut mucosa.

Quantifying spatiotemporal variability and noise in absolute microbiota abundances using replicate sampling.

TL;DR: This work applied DIVERS to investigate a high-resolution time series of the human gut microbiome and a spatial survey of a soil bacterial community in Manhattan’s Central Park, revealing substantial spatial heterogeneity of gut microbiota, and high temporal covariances of taxa within the Bacteroidetes phylum.

Trimmomatic: a flexible trimmer for Illumina sequence data

TL;DR: Timmomatic is developed as a more flexible and efficient preprocessing tool, which could correctly handle paired-end data and is shown to produce output that is at least competitive with, and in many cases superior to, that produced by other tools, in all scenarios tested.
