Happy and grateful to have contributed to this work. Excited to share a new publication from the Sebastian Group at APC Microbiome Ireland. Many thanks to @tsbschm.bsky.social for the guidance and continued support. Congratulations to all co-authors
Our latest work is now online!
Explored how obesogenic diets, obesity, and key experimental factors (mouse vendor, sex, microbiota) influence intestinal antimicrobial peptide (AMP) expression
There is a lot of undescribed prokaryotic diversity in existing whole-genome metagenomic data!

We just released a @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social describing the *microntology*, a lightweight controlled vocabulary that we have been using for a while to tag metagenomes with contextual data.

A clearer way to describe microbial habitats helps researchers compare #microbiome data.
A new paper in #ππ’π¨π’π§ππ¨π«π¦πππ’ππ¬ introduces microntology: 148 terms and curated annotations for 305,626 #metagenomic samples.

Congratulations to @fullam.bsky.social @vishnuprasoodanan.bsky.social & @biocs.bsky.social !
See the thread below for more details.
We've updated our recent @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social on 'Hidden but discoverable diversity in the global microbiome', led by @vishnuprasoodanan.bsky.social & @omaistrenko.bsky.social

Most microbial diversity is still missing from genome catalogues.
A new paper in @natmicrobiol.nature.com analysed 92,187 metagenomes and found that most discoverable bacterial and archaeal lineages sit in unbinned contigs.

Summary. We introduce microntology v1.0, a pragmatic controlled vocabulary of 148 terms to describe microbial habitats and lifestyles, and provide manually curated microntology annotations for >300k m...
Cataloguing Earth's biodiversity remains one of the most formidable challenges in biology, and the greatest diversity is expected to reside among the smallest organisms: microbes. Yet the ongoing cens...
AbstractMotivation. Data-enabled studies of microbial ecology and evolution depend on high-quality descriptions of microbial habitats, based on curated and
I will write more after the Easter break, but for now congratulations to @vishnuprasoodanan.bsky.social @omaistrenko.bsky.social and all other co-authors (including @fullam.bsky.social @pangenomics.bsky.social @luispedrocoelho.bsky.social @anja1.bsky.social )!
