This study compares microbial communities in straw and leaf composts using metagenomic and enzymatic analyses to identify key decomposers and their functional capabilities.

The paper extends rnaSPAdes to perform hybrid transcriptome assembly using short and long RNA reads, improving gene and isoform reconstruction.

The paper introduces rnaSPAdes, a de novo transcriptome assembler, and evaluates its performance against other tools using RNA-Seq datasets.

The paper analyzes whole-genome sequences of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis patients in Russia to identify genetic substrains and drug resistance patterns.
