Microbes can be difficult to culture in the laboratory. To tackle this we assemble their genomes directly from metagenomic data. These are called MAGs: metagenome-assembled genomes. Explore the novelty of uncultivated microbes in our biome-specific genome catalogues. www.ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics...

The MGnify analysis pipelines help researchers explore these microbial communities and understand what’s present and what they do in a diverse range of environments.

The microbiome is the community of microbes - bacteria, archaea, viruses & micro-eukaryotes - that live in almost all environments. So how do we untangle the complex puzzle in each environment?

Presenting at the "Metagenomics in spaceflight" workshop at NASA, Lorna- @microbiodata.bsky.social presented the vast microbiome resources available at @ebi.embl.org and MGnify to assist discussions to develop a roadmap for integration of metagenomic sequencing into planetary protection.
