DNA Sequencing as a Tool to Monitor Marine Ecological Status (2017, background): “The resulting sequences can be compared directly against genomes of known taxa or can be assembled into longer segments (contigs) which can be further annotated for gene content, function, and taxonomic assignment (Segata et al., 2012; Teeling and Glöckner, 2012; Wood and Salzberg, 2014; Bengtsson-P”
Temperatures beyond the community optimum promote the dominance of heat-adapted, fast growing and stress resistant bacteria in alpine soils (2020, methodology): “The OTU centroid sequences were then filtered for the presence of ribosomal signatures using Metaxa2 (Bengtsson-Palme et al., 2015).”
The “Plastisphere” of Biodegradable Plastics Is Characterized by Specific Microbial Taxa of Alpine and Arctic Soils (2020, methodology): “The OTU centroid sequences were then filtered for the presence of ribosomal signatures using Metaxa2 (Bengtsson-Palme et al., 2015) or ITSx (Bengtsson-Palme et al., 2013).”
