Computational meta'omics for microbial community studies (2013, background): “These revealed not only gene-and taxon-speciﬁc expression patterns but also gene categories undetected in previous DNA-based surveys (Frias-Lopez et al , 2008) and nonprotein-coding small RNAs in naturally occurring microbial communities (Shi et al , 2009).”
Next‐generation sequencing technologies for environmental DNA research (2012, background): “Frias-Lopez et al. (2008) studied microbial community gene expression in ocean surface waters through transcriptomic sequencing analysis of cDNA libraries.”
Gut microbiota in health and disease. (2010, background): “Metatranscriptomics has been successfully used to study complex microbial communities in soil (315) and aquatic environments (78), as well as the host-symbiont interactions in the termite gut (305).”
A Bioinformatician's Guide to Metagenomics (2008, background): “Conversely other gene families that were poorly represented in the metagenomic data, such as pufB encoding a subunit of a light harvesting protein, were 1105 highly expressed (41) indicating that potentially important functions will be overlooked or underestimated by DNA-based gene-centric analysis.”
Exploring Microbial Diversity and Taxonomy Using SSU rRNA Hypervariable Tag Sequencing (2008, background): “being explored across a great range of natural environments: in soils [3-5], air [6] and seas [7-10], on plants [11] and in animals [12,13] and in extreme environments such as the arctic [14], deep-sea vents[15], uranium-contaminated soil [16], and waste-water treatment discharge [17].”
The core gut microbiome, energy balance and obesity (2009, background): “More recently, ‘metatranscriptomic’ and ‘metaproteomic’ studies have begun to characterize gene expression, as well as the population structure of microbial communities (Ram et al. 2005; Lo et al. 2007; Frias-Lopez et al. 2008; Wilmes et al. 2008; Poretsky et al. 2009; Verberkmoes et al. 2009).”
