Abstract The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiome of ruminants significantly influences their nutrition metabolism and health. Current understanding is extensive for bacterial archaeal communities, but limited viral communities within the GIT. To address this, we created Ruminant Gastrointestinal Virome Catalogue (RGVC), which includes 43,981 non-redundant Operational Taxonomic Units (vOTUs), with 89.3% newly identified, derived from 370 samples across 10 GIT regions in seven ruminant species. composition mainly influenced by rather than We identified 4,603 putative prokaryotic hosts 31 three classes 5,954 viruses, along significant variations a strong correlation between associated viruses.

Abstract In deep sea cold seeps, diverse microbial communities thrive on the geological seepage of hydrocarbons and inorganic compounds. These chemosynthetically-driven are unique in composition, ecology, biogeochemical activities compared to photosynthetically-driven ecosystems. However, their biosynthetic capabilities remain largely unexplored. Here, we analyzed 81 metagenomes, 33 metatranscriptomes, seven metabolomes derived from nine globally distributed areas seeps investigate secondary metabolites produced by seep microbiomes. Cold microbiomes encode diverse, abundant, novel gene clusters (BGCs). Most BGCs affiliated with understudied bacteria archaea, including key mediators methane sulfur cycling, multiple candidate phyla. The antimicrobial compounds (e.g. NRPS, PKSs, RiPPs) that potentially shape community dynamics, as well predicted influence such phosphonates, iron-acquiring siderophores, nitrogenase-protecting glycolipids, methyl-CoM reductase-modifying proteins. players widely highly expressed, abundance expression levels varying different sediment depths. Numerous natural products were detected through untargeted metabolomics, demonstrating a vast, unexplored chemical space validating situ sediments. Overall, these results demonstrate sediments serve reservoir hidden provide insights into adaptation
