UCHIME improves sensitivity and speed of chimera detection
Abstract Motivation: Chimeric DNA sequences often form during polymerase chain reaction amplification, especially when sequencing single regions (e.g. 16S rRNA or fungal Interna...

Background VSEARCH is an open source and free of charge multithreaded 64-bit tool for processing and preparing metagenomics, genomics and population genomics nucleotide sequence...
Swarm: robust and fast clustering method for amplicon-based studies
Popular de novo amplicon clustering methods suffer from two fundamental flaws: arbitrary global clustering thresholds, and input-order dependency induced by centroid selection. ...
Simera: Modelling the PCR Process to Simulate Realistic Chimera Formation
Abstract Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is the principal method of amplifying target DNA regions and, as such, is of great importance when performing microbial diversity studie...
Organismal, genetic, and transcriptional variation in the deeply sequenced gut microbiomes of identical twins
We deeply sampled the organismal, genetic, and transcriptional diversity in fecal samples collected from a monozygotic (MZ) twin pair and compared the results to 1,095 communiti...
