Here it is! I'm not sure chromosomes can be considered MGEs. What is clear is that the transfer of chromosomal genes via lateral transduction is more efficient than the transfer of classical MGEs. Our results raise questions about our definition of MGEs. disq.us/t/42ojt2w

Huge congratulations to everyone, on our paper looking at the difference in PCR and PCR-free library preparations when resolving the virome in stool. @hsieh_ernie @CardingLab @EvelienAdri @telatin @rebecca_ansorge @BugsInYourGuts @georgemsavva. mdpi.com/1999-4915/13/10/209…

Comparison of PCR versus PCR-Free DNA Library Preparation for Characterising the Human Faecal Virome

The human intestinal microbiota is abundant in viruses, comprising mainly bacteriophages, occasionally outnumbering bacteria 10:1 and is termed the virome. Due to their high genetic diversity and the...
