Abstract Background High-throughput sequencing of the full-length 16S rRNA gene has improved taxonomic classification prokaryotes found in natural environments. However, shorter regions from same gene, like V4-V5 region, can provide more cost-effective high throughput. It is unclear which approach best describes prokaryotic communities underexplored In this study, we hypothesize that high-throughput combined with adequate databases improves description environments comparison a short region gene. Results To test our hypothesis, compared profiles seawater samples Arctic Ocean using: and combination either Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB) or Silva taxonomy database. Our results show all combinations strategies present similar at higher levels. lower levels, namely family, genus, most notably species level, led to proportions Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs) assigned formally valid taxa. Hence, was obtained by GTDB combination, some cases allowed for identification intraspecific diversity ASVs. Conclusions We conclude coupling microbiome profiling ranks. The improvements reported here context scientists discuss microbial community dynamics within solid framework still underrepresented sequences public databases.

Abstract Bacteria often exist and function as a community, known the bacterial microbiota, which consists of vast numbers bacteria belonging to many species (taxa). Characterizing microbiota needs high‐throughput approaches that enable identification quantification cells, such have been under development for more than 30 years. In this review, we describe history technologies based on 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene‐amplicon sequencing characterization microbiotas. Then, summarize features applications current rRNA approaches, including recent achievement enables individual cells with single‐base accuracy genes identified cells. Furthermore, present prospects further technical development, combined use methods other informative analyses, whole‐genome in common unit cell, both number their functions.

Microbial communities in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) play a role system success, nutrient cycling, and water quality. Considering the increasing socio-economic of fish farming, e.g., regarding food security, an in-depth understanding microbial is also relevant from management perspective, especially growth, development, welfare farmed animal. However, current data on composition within RAS patchy, which partly attributable to diverging method choices that render comparative analyses challenging. Therefore, there need for accurate, standardized, user-friendly methods study systems.We compared sequencing approach performances (3 types 16S short amplicon sequencing, PacBio long-read amplification-free shotgun metagenomics) characterization two commercial farms. Results showed primer choice length affect some values (e.g., diversity measures, number assigned taxa or distinguishing ASVs) but have no impact spatio-temporal patterns between sample types, farms time points. This implies rRNA approaches are adequate community studies. The amplicons underperformed quantitative resolution were suited identify functional services, nitrification cycling detection pathogens. Finally, metagenomics extended picture fungi, viruses, bacteriophages, opening avenues exploring inter-domain interactions. All datasets agreed major prokaryotic players, such as Actinobacteriota, Bacteroidota, Nitrospirota, Proteobacteria.The different yielded overlapping highly complementary results, with each contributing unique not obtainable other approaches. We conclude tiered constitutes strategy obtaining maximum amount information can inform basic research evolution dynamics. For specific and/or applied questions, single-method more practical cost-effective could lead better farm practices.

Accessibility to next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies has enabled the profiling of microbial communities living in distinct habitats. 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene is widely used for microbiota with NGS technologies. Since most platforms generate short reads, full-length rRNA impractical. Therefore, choosing which hypervariable region sequence critical studies. All nine regions are taxonomically informative, but due variability performance specific clades, ideal will depend on bacterial composition habitat under study. Recently, allowed identification microbes urinary tract, and become an active research area. However, there no current study evaluating different male profiling.

16S rRNA amplicon sequencing or, more recently, metatranscriptomic analysis are currently the only preferred methods for microbial profiling of samples containing a predominant ratio human to bacterial DNA. However, due off-target amplification DNA, current protocols inadequate bioptic samples. Here we present an efficient, reliable, and affordable method bacteriome clinical DNA content predominates. We determined microbiota profile in total 40 biopsies esophagus, stomach, duodenum using with widely used 515F-806R (V4) primers targeting V4 region, 68F-338R modified set (V1-V2M) V1-V2 region. With primers, on average 70% sequence variants (ASV) mapped genome. On other hand, this was absent when V1-V2M primers. Moreover, provided significantly higher taxonomic richness reproducibility compared conclude that is cost-effective, applicable low-bacterial abundant medical research.
