Clustering huge protein sequence sets in linear time (2017, background): “59 billion protein sequence fragments predicted by Prodigal [19] in 2200 metagenomic and metatranscriptomic datasets [3, 20, 21] downloaded mainly 200”
MMseqs2: sensitive protein sequence searching for the analysis of massive data sets (2017, background): “In summary, in the original study BLAST was able to match 67% of the OM-RGC sequences to an eggNOG cluster [25], whereas MMseqs2 matched 78% with only 1.”
Fast automated reconstruction of genome-scale metabolic models for microbial species and communities (2018, background): “However, a vast majority of relevant microbial communities, such as those residing in the human microbiota (16), ocean (17) or soil (18), still remain inaccessible for metabolic modeling due to the un-availability of the corresponding species-level models.”
Eukaryotic plankton diversity in the sunlit ocean (2015, background): “tists may be even more diverse than prokaryotes in the planktonic ecosystem (63).”
Four priority areas to advance invasion science in the face of rapid environmental change (2020, background): “Metagenomic sequencing of samples from only 68 ocean locations revealed over 35000 microbial “species” (Sunagawa et al. 2015).”
Fast and sensitive taxonomic classification for metagenomics with Kaiju (2016, background): “Thus, metagenomic studies continuously ﬁnd novel habitats where large fractions of the sequence data remain unclassiﬁed or only show low sequence similarities to the known species 11,12 .”
