Microflora Danica: the atlas of Danish environmental microbiomes

Microflora Danica compiles 10,686 shotgun metagenomes and 449 rRNA datasets to create an atlas of Danish environmental microbiomes, revealing hidden homogeneity and novel nitrifiers.

Recovery of highly contiguous genomes from complex terrestrial habitats reveals over 15,000 novel prokaryotic species and expands characterization of soil and sediment microbial communities

This study uses long-read sequencing and optimized bioinformatics to recover high-quality microbial genomes from soil and sediment samples, revealing over 15,000 novel prokaryotic species and expanding microbial community characterization.

Enabling high-accuracy long-read amplicon sequences using unique molecular identifiers with Nanopore or PacBio sequencing

Dual patterned unique molecular identifiers (UMIs) turn Nanopore or PacBio CCS reads of ~4400 bp rRNA operons into single-molecule consensus sequences with 0.0049% (ONT) or 0.0006% (PacBio) mean error.
