The biomass distribution on Earth

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Journal Year: 2018, Volume and Issue: 115(25), P. 6506 - 6511

Published: May 21, 2018

Significance The composition of the biosphere is a fundamental question in biology, yet global quantitative account biomass each taxon still lacking. We assemble census all kingdoms life. This analysis provides holistic view and allows us to observe broad patterns over taxonomic categories, geographic locations, trophic modes.

Virus taxonomy in the age of metagenomics

Nature Reviews Microbiology, Journal Year: 2017, Volume and Issue: 15(3), P. 161 - 168

Published: Jan. 3, 2017

Although viral sequences are important in taxonomy, classification has typically also required biological properties, thus excluding viruses that were identified by metagenomics. The proposals this Consensus Statement, which supported the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), enable discovered sequence alone to be incorporated into virus classification. number and diversity metagenomic data far exceeds experimentally characterized isolates. In a recent workshop, panel experts discussed proposal that, with appropriate quality control, known only from can, should be, official scheme (ICTV). taxonomy is based represents substantial departure traditional reliance phenotypic development robust framework for sequence-based indispensable comprehensive characterization global virome. Statement article, we consider rationale why should, how it ICTV present have been endorsed Executive ICTV.

Marine viruses discovered via metagenomics shed light on viral strategies throughout the oceans

Nature Communications, Journal Year: 2017, Volume and Issue: 8(1)

Published: July 5, 2017

Abstract Marine viruses are key drivers of host diversity, population dynamics and biogeochemical cycling contribute to the daily flux billions tons organic matter. Despite recent advancements in metagenomics, much their biodiversity remains uncharacterized. Here we report a data set 27,346 marine virome contigs that includes 44 complete genomes. These outnumber all currently known phage genomes habitats include members previously uncharacterized lineages. We designed new method for prediction based on co-occurrence associations reveals these infect dominant microbiome such as Prochlorococcus Pelagibacter . A negative association between abundance virus-to-host ratio supports recently proposed Piggyback-the-Winner model reduced lysis at higher densities. An analysis patterns throughout oceans revealed how viral communities adapt various seasonal, temperature photic regimes according targeted hosts diversity auxiliary metabolic genes.
