A Targeted Reference Database for Improved Analysis of Environmental 16S rRNA Oxford Nanopore Sequencing Data

The paper develops a targeted reference database, AQUAeD-DB, to improve taxonomic accuracy of 16S rRNA sequencing data from seafloor sediments using Oxford Nanopore Technologies.

Enhanced Prediction of Seafloor Ecological State Using 16S Nanopore Sequencing

This study compares Illumina and Nanopore 16S rRNA sequencing for predicting seafloor ecological state using machine learning and feature selection, showing comparable performance with Nanopore as a viable alternative.

Key roles of microbial sulfur and ammonium oxidizers for the coastal seafloor ecological state

The paper examines the relationship between microbial sulfur and ammonium oxidizers and macrofaunal state in coastal seafloor samples, finding distinct microbial networks linked to macrofauna loss or preservation.

Revision and annotation of DNA barcode records for marine invertebrates: report of the 8th iBOL conference hackathon

The paper curates DNA barcode records for marine invertebrates, identifying and tagging problematic records in BOLD with specific annotations.
