Open AccessStout camphor tree genome fills gaps in understanding of flowering plant genome evolution
We present reference-quality genome assembly and annotation for the stout camphor tree (Cinnamomum kanehirae (Laurales, Lauraceae)), the first sequenced member of the Magnoliidae comprising four orders (Laurales,...

Open AccessezTree: an automated pipeline for identifying phylogenetic marker genes and inferring evolutionary relationships among uncultivated prokaryotic draft genomes
Inferring phylogenetic trees for newly recovered genomes from metagenomic samples is very useful in determining the identities of uncultivated microorganisms. Even though 16S ribosomal RNA small subunit genes ...

Open AccessA bacterial pioneer produces cellulase complexes that persist through community succession
Cultivation of microbial consortia provides low-complexity communities that can serve as tractable models to understand community dynamics. Time-resolved metagenomics demonstrated that an aerobic cellulolytic ...

Open AccessCritical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation—a benchmark of metagenomics software
The Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation (CAMI) community initiative presents results from its first challenge, a rigorous benchmarking of software for metagenome assembly, binning and taxonomic pr...

Open AccessMetabolic characteristics of dominant microbes and key rare species from an acidic hot spring in Taiwan revealed by metagenomics
Microbial diversity and community structures in acidic hot springs have been characterized by 16S rRNA gene-based diversity surveys. However, our understanding regarding the interactions among microbes, or bet...

Open AccessThe gain and loss of chromosomal integron systems in the Treponemaspecies
Integron systems are now recognized as important agents of bacterial evolution and are prevalent in most environments. One of the human pathogens known to harbor chromosomal integrons, the Treponema spirochetes a...

A Novel Abundance-Based Algorithm for Binning Metagenomic Sequences Using l-Tuples
Metagenomics is the study of microbial communities sampled directly from their natural environment, without prior culturing. Among the computational tools recently developed for metagenomic sequence analysis, ...
