In this study, we developed the REMIRGE program to retrieve the full-length functional genes from shotgun metagenomic reads and fully explored the phylogenetic diversity in cold seep sediments. The abundance and diversity of functional genes involved in the methane, sulfur, and nitrogen cycles differ...
Assessment of functional diversity of both metagenomes by SEED, Gene Ontology terms, Clusters of Orthologous Groups of protein categories, protein family numbers, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes revealed xenobiotic compound degradation potential of indigenous microbial community. The results also revealed ...
of significance in nutrient regeneration and transformation involving different assemblages of microbes in the nitrogen cycle.This review focuses on 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic diversity and the key enzyme encoding gene-based(e.g.nifH,amoA,narG,nirS,nirK,nosZ,nrfA,hzo and hzs) functional ...
The cox genes encoding carbon monoxide dehydro- genase (CODH) are placed into two distinct groups; form I and form II (King, 2003). Studies of the functional diversity of CO-oxidizing Bacteria have relied on PCR probes for the carbon monoxide dehydrogenase gene (coxL) encoding the large ...
Additionally, we compared the phylogenetic diversity of specific groups (Aeromonas, Pseudomonas and Psychrobacter) present in bacterioneuston and bacterioplankton. Finally, both communities were compared in terms of prevalence and diversity of antibiotic resistant bacteria and resistance genes. Cultivable ...
of the vagina and gut isolated from asymptomatic donors were obtained from previous studies. Bladder isolates from female asymptomatic controls were used in the comparison.B,CDAPC and PCoA of KEGG functional diversity of bacterial species isolated from the asymptomatic individuals of different niches.D...

Functional Analysis of the Kunitz Trypsin Inhibitor Family in Poplar Reveals Biochemical Diversity and Multiplicity in Defense against Herbivores We investigated the functional and biochemical variability of Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) genes of Populus trichocarpa X Populus deltoides. Phylogenetic... I.,...
Interestingly, exon/intron structure analysis showed that the gene structures of OPR paralogues exhibits diversity in intron number and length, while the intron positions and phase were highly conserved across different lineage species. These observations together with the phylogenetic tree revealed that ...
The phylogenetic diversity and community structure of members of the gut anaerobic fungi (AF) (phylum Neocallimastigomycota) were investigated in 30 different herbivore species that belong to 10 different mammalian and reptilian families using the intern
