PICRUSt2-MPGA: an update to the reference database used for functional prediction within PICRUSt2 Summary PICRUSt2 is a bioinformatic tool that predicts microbial functions in amplicon sequencing data using a database of annotated reference genomes. We have constructed an updated database for PICR...

I guess I’ll start off on here with my last tweet?

I’m pleased to share my new preprint with @betascience.bsky.social, where we introduce a new database for PICRUSt2 functional predictions.

Integrating sequence composition information into microbial diversity analyses with k-mer frequency counting | mSystems k-mers are all of the subsequences of length k that comprise a sequence. Comparing the frequency of k-mers in DNA sequences yields valuable information about the composition of these sequences and the...

In a spot of happy news, our lab published a new method for kmer-based microbial diversity analysis! The @qiime2.org plugin q2-kmerizer is now out in @asm.org's mSystems 🎉

Do you use Zenodo for archiving QIIME 2 data for publications? We now support loading QIIME 2 Results (Artifacts and Visualizations) directly from Zenodo with QIIME 2 View.

Check out the links in this Zenodo record, which references data from a new @cap-lab.bio pub:

QIIME 2 2024.2 is now available! The QIIME 2 2024.2 release is now available! Thanks to everyone involved for their hard work! 🙌🏼 🎉 As a reminder, our next planned QIIME 2 release is scheduled for May 2023 (QIIME 2 2023.5), but plea...

Happy Monday! Start your week off w/ a new QIIME 2 release: @qiime2 2024.2. There's a lot in this one, including new parallel actions in the shotgun distribution, a fancy new visualizer (summarize-plus), for summarizing feature tables & performance enhancements and minor fixes throughout. Enjoy!

Definitions of Reproducible, Replicable, Robust, and Generalizable in the context of data analysis.

QIIME 2 Provenance Replay auto-generates the code for creating QIIME 2 results from QIIME 2 results & builds "bioinformatics reproducibility supplements" for your papers. Our goal is to make it easy for you to perform reproducible, replicable & robust bioinformatics.
