Metalog: curated and harmonised contextual data for global metagenomics samples

Metalog manually curates and harmonises contextual metadata for 110,733 metagenomic samples from humans, animals, ocean water and other environments, linked to taxonomic profiles and SPIRE genomes.

Refined Enterotyping Reveals Dysbiosis in Global Fecal Metagenomes

The paper refines enterotypes in global fecal metagenomes using fuzzy clustering and introduces an Enterotype Dysbiosis Score to assess disease associations.

Hagfish genome illuminates vertebrate whole genome duplications and their evolutionary consequences

Chromosome-scale inshore hagfish genome places 1R before the cyclostome-gnathostome split and 2R in the gnathostome stem, and reveals two cyclostome-specific duplications (CR1, CR2).

Repeat associated mechanisms of genome evolution and function revealed by the Mus caroli and Mus pahari genomes

The paper compares genome assemblies of Mus caroli and Mus pahari with Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus to reveal lineage-specific evolutionary mechanisms, particularly repeat-associated processes.
