High-throughput amplicon sequencing (HTAS) of conserved DNA regions is a powerful technique to characterize microbial communities. Recently, spike-in mock communities have been used measure accuracy platforms and data analysis pipelines. To assess the ability processing pipelines using fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) amplicons, we created two ITS control composed cloned in plasmids: biological community, consisting sequences from taxa, synthetic community (SynMock), non-biological ITS-like sequences. Using these controls show that: (1) (e.g., SynMock) best solution for parameterizing bioinformatics pipelines, (2) pre-clustering steps variable length amplicons are critically important, (3) major source bias attributed initial polymerase chain reaction (PCR) thus HTAS read abundances typically not representative starting values. We developed AMPtk, versatile software equipped deal with quality filter based on controls. While describe herein SynMock sequences, concept AMPtk can be widely applied any dataset improve quality.

VSEARCH is an open source and free of charge multithreaded 64-bit tool for processing preparing metagenomics, genomics population nucleotide sequence data. It designed as alternative to the widely used USEARCH (Edgar, 2010) which code not publicly available, algorithm details are only rudimentarily described, a memory-confined 32-bit version freely available academic use.When searching sequences, uses fast heuristic based on words shared by query target sequences in order quickly identify similar strategy probably USEARCH. then performs optimal global alignment against potential using full dynamic programming instead seed-and-extend Pairwise alignments computed parallel vectorisation multiple threads.VSEARCH includes most commands analysing 7 several those 8, including (exact or alignment), clustering similarity (using length pre-sorting, abundance pre-sorting user-defined order), chimera detection (reference-based de novo), dereplication (full prefix), pairwise alignment, reverse complementation, sorting, subsampling. also FASTQ file processing, i.e., format detection, filtering, read quality statistics, merging paired reads. Furthermore, extends functionality with new improvements, shuffling, rereplication, masking low-complexity well-known DUST algorithm, choice among different definitions, conversion. here shown be more accurate than when performing searching, clustering, subsampling, while par paired-ends merging. slower but significantly faster paired-end reads dereplication. at https://github.com/torognes/vsearch under either BSD 2-clause license GNU General Public License 3.0.VSEARCH has been fast, full-fledged A open-source versatile analysis now metagenomics community.

Abstract Recent advances have made it possible to analyze high-throughput marker-gene sequencing data without resorting the customary construction of molecular operational taxonomic units (OTUs): clusters reads that differ by less than a fixed dissimilarity threshold. New methods control errors sufficiently such amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) can be resolved exactly, down level single-nucleotide differences over sequenced gene region. The benefits finer resolution are immediately apparent, and arguments for ASV focused on their improved resolution. Less obvious, but we believe more important, broad derive from status ASVs as consistent labels with intrinsic biological meaning identified independently reference database. Here discuss how these features grant combined advantages closed-reference OTUs—including computational costs scale linearly study size, simple merging between processed sets, forward prediction—and de novo accurate measurement diversity applicability communities lacking deep coverage in databases. We argue improvements reusability, reproducibility comprehensiveness great should replace OTUs standard unit analysis reporting.

Abstract Amplicon sequencing of tags such as 16S and ITS ribosomal RNA is a popular method for investigating microbial populations. In experiments, sequence errors caused by PCR are difficult to distinguish from true biological variation. I describe UNOISE2, an updated version the UNOISE algorithm denoising (error-correcting) Illumina amplicon reads show that it has comparable or better accuracy than DADA2.

Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to the genetic material that can be extracted from bulk environmental samples such as soil, water, and even air. The rapidly expanding study of eDNA has generated unprecedented ability detect species conduct analyses for conservation, management, research, particularly in scenarios where collection whole organisms is impractical or impossible. While number studies demonstrating successful detection increased recent years, less research explored "ecology" eDNA—myriad interactions between extraorganismal its environment—and influence on detection, quantification, analysis, application conservation research. Here, we outline a framework understanding ecology eDNA, including origin, state, transport, fate material. Using this framework, review synthesize findings diverse environments, taxa, fields highlight important concepts knowledge gaps application. Additionally, identify frontiers conservation-focused see most potential growth, use estimating population size, genomic via inclusion other indicator biomolecules RNA proteins, automated sample consideration an expanded array creative samples. We discuss how more complete integral advancing these maximizing future applications

The 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene is widely used to survey microbial communities. Sequences are often clustered into Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) as proxies for species. canonical clustering threshold 97% identity, which was proposed in 1994 when few rRNA sequences were available, motivating a reassessment on current data.Using large set of high-quality from finished genomes, I assessed the correspondence OTUs species five representative algorithms using four accuracy metrics. All had comparable tuned given metric. Optimal identity thresholds ∼99% full-length and ∼100% V4 hypervariable region.Reference source code provided Supplementary Material.Supplementary data available at Bioinformatics online.
