SortMeRNA: Fast and accurate filtering of ribosomal RNAs in metatranscriptomic data.
TLDR
SortMeRNA, a new software designed to rapidly filter rRNA fragments from metatranscriptomic data, is presented, capable of handling large sets of reads and sorting out all fragments matching to the rRNA database with high sensitivity and low running time.Abstract:
MOTIVATION: The application of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies to RNAs directly extracted from a community of organisms yields a mixture of fragments characterizing both coding and non-coding types of RNAs. The tasks to distinguish among these and to further categorize the families of messenger RNAs and ribosomal RNAs is an important step for examining gene expression patterns of an interactive environment and the phylogenetic classification of the constituting species. RESULTS: We present SortMeRNA, a new software designed to rapidly filter ribosomal RNA fragments from metatranscriptomic data. It is capable of handling large sets of reads and sorting out all fragments matching to the rRNA database with high sensitivity and low running time.

Transcriptome analysis of Eucalyptus grandis genotypes reveals constitutive overexpression of genes related to rust (Austropuccinia psidii) resistance
Samuel A. Santos,Samuel A. Santos,Pedro Marcus Pereira Vidigal,Lúcio M. S. Guimarães,Reginaldo Gonçalves Mafia,Matthew D. Templeton,Acelino C. Alfenas +6 more
TL;DR: The first analysis of E. grandis genotypes transcriptomes infected by A. psidii reveals a constitutive overexpression of several resistance-related genes in the resistant genotype compared to the susceptible one, which has the potential to be used as candidate molecular markers for resistance to myrtle rust.

The soil microbial food web revisited with metatranscriptomics - predatory Myxobacteria as keystone taxon?
TL;DR: Here, Myxobacteria showed prey-dependent, protozoa-like community dynamics during colonisation, suggesting the presence of an ecologically important “bacterial loop” in soil food webs, independent ofprotozoa and nematodes.

Search and clustering orders of magnitude faster than BLAST
TL;DR: UCLUST is a new clustering method that exploits USEARCH to assign sequences to clusters and offers several advantages over the widely used program CD-HIT, including higher speed, lower memory use, improved sensitivity, clustering at lower identities and classification of much larger datasets.
