The paper examines how different milk pretreatment methods affect microbiome dynamics during cheese production using metagenomic sequencing and identifies key microbial contributors to cheese quality.

This study reconstructs the genomic history of the extinct giant deer, revealing genetic vulnerabilities linked to its extinction.

The paper uses ancient environmental DNA to analyze marine biodiversity in pre-industrial Iceland, finding limited human impact compared to climate effects.

This study analyzes the microbial ecology of novel miso varieties made from different substrates, finding that substrate and geography strongly influence microbial composition and gene presence.

This study uses a two-step metagenomic approach to accurately identify prey from common vampire bat blood meals using shotgun sequencing and validates results with metabarcoding.

The paper introduces Tagsteady, a metabarcoding library preparation protocol that minimizes tag-jumps by avoiding steps that cause them, resulting in accurate sequence assignment.

The paper generates a genome from a historical European Plasmodium vivax strain, revealing its evolutionary relationship to American strains and the presence of drug resistance variants predating their use.

MobiSeq is a reduced representation library protocol that discovers SNPs in model and non-model species by sequencing flanking regions of transposable elements.
