Improved metagenome binning and assembly using deep variational autoencoders

Jakob Nybo Nissen et al.

Summary: Despite recent advances in metagenomic binning, reconstruction of microbial species from metagenomics data remains challenging. Here we develop variational autoencoders for metagenomic binning (VAMB), a program that outperforms existing state-of-the-art binners in reconstructing near-complete genomes on simulated and real data. VAMB is able to separate closely related strains with high accuracy and showcase different geographical distribution patterns of human gut microbiome species.

Homopolish: a method for the removal of systematic errors in nanopore sequencing by homologous polishing

Yao-Ting Huang et al.

Summary: Homopolish, trained on homologous sequences, outperforms traditional methods in correcting Nanopore systematic errors and improving genome quality. When combined with other programs, it can achieve higher genome quality across various datasets. Nanopore-only sequencing has the potential to produce high-quality microbial genomes for downstream analysis.

A genomic catalog of Earth's microbiomes

Stephen Nayfach et al.

Summary: Reconstructing bacterial and archaeal genomes from shotgun metagenomes has led to the creation of a comprehensive catalog representing a significant expansion of the known phylogenetic diversity of bacteria and archaea. This resource is available for streamlined comparative analyses, interactive exploration, metabolic modeling, and bulk download, demonstrating the utility of genome-centric approaches for understanding genomic properties of uncultivated microorganisms.
