The rare microbial biosphere harbors many chemosensitive microorganisms undetectable by regular shotgun metagenomics. We can now explore them using our custom target-capture sequencing approach. Impressive work by @clausanchis, part of her PhD thesis! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. .

Check with the latest features of TreeProfiler in github.com/compgenomicslab/T… and github.com/dengzq1234/treepr…. Here is a small demo of profiling tree over 100k leaves with multipule columns of presence/absence matrix.
Awesome work by @deng_ziqi TreeProfiler: a tool for large-scale metadata profiling along gene and species trees. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Interactive viz of large trees + custom traits, MSA, domain architectures, functional terms & more + summary of features at internal nodes.
