2) #Metagenomics is now maturing to a point where large-scale worldwide meta-analyses become possible, with enough public data to study rare species in broad contexts. This is possible only if the raw data and, above all, the associated #metadata are public and accessible.
So please, do not keep the metadata behind closed doors, and adopt an #openscience policy whenever possible 😀

A metagenomic compendium from lakes across Canada reveals bacterial metabolic potential and how it varies depending on land use in different regions.Nature
From Jing Wang et al. at Sun Yat-sen University, this is a new Nature Communications publication describing the virome of 149 bats collected in Yunan Provinde from 2015-2019. A metagenomic assembly produced contigs from 55 different mammal-associated viral species, including 5 similar to known human or livestock pathogens, including 2 Sarbecoviruses, with evidence of recombination.

Individual bat virome analysis reveals co-infection and spillover among bats and virus zoonotic potential - Nature Communications
Viral diversity and abundance in bats are incompletely understood. Here, analyzing individual bat viromes, the authors observe a high frequency of co-infection and spillover among the animals and identify viruses with the potential to infect humans o…Nature

This new research in Scientific Reports takes a #metagenomics and Q-PCR approach to explore the composition of the Cyanobacterial populations and their cyanotoxin production gene in major rivers across the United States (in 2019) and identifies Microcystis as the key toxin producing genus across this study.

This fascinating new #metagenomics research in mBio explores a potentially important and intriguing link between the presence and relative abundance of different functional guilds present in the human gut #microbiome (including short chain fatty acid biosynthesis and virulence functions) and disease severity and outcomes resulting from the virus. Clearly a subject for future extended studies to explore potential increases in severity due to infection and exacerbated or mitigated by differences in gut microbiomes.
