New Abundant Microbial Groups in Aquatic Hypersaline Environments
TLDR
The microbiota of two hypersaline saltern ponds, one of intermediate salinity (19%) and a NaCl saturated crystallizer pond (37%) using pyrosequencing revealed novel, abundant and previously unsuspected microbial groups, including a low-GC euryarchaeon and a gammaproteobacterium related to Alkalilimnicola and Nitrococcus.

Metagenomics uncovers a new group of low GC and ultra-small marine Actinobacteria
We describe a deep-branching lineage of marine Actinobacteria with very low GC content (33%) and the smallest free living cells described yet (cell volume ca. 0.013 μm3), even smaller than the…

Metagenomics of the Water Column in the Pristine Upper Course of the Amazon River
TLDR
A metabolism-centric analysis revealed a disproportionate representation of pathways involved in heterotrophic carbon processing, as compared to those found in marine samples, and river microbes appear to be specialized in taking up and mineralizing allochthonous carbon derived from plant material.

Gain and Loss of Multiple Genes During the Evolution of Helicobacter pylori
TLDR
The use of microarrays can reveal patterns of gene gain or loss when examined within a phylogenetic context that is based on sequences of core genes within Helicobacter pylori.

Expanding the Marine Virosphere Using Metagenomics
TLDR
A direct approach to viral population genomics is allowed, confirming the remarkable mosaicism of phage genomes.

Metagenomic Insights into the Uncultured Diversity and Physiology of Microbes in Four Hypersaline Soda Lake Brines
TLDR
The first “metagenomic snapshots” of microbial communities thriving in the brines of four shallow soda lakes from the Kulunda Steppe (Altai, Russia) covering a salinity range from 170 to 400 g/L are presented.

Microdiversification in genome-streamlined ubiquitous freshwater Actinobacteria
TLDR
A new order within Actinobacteria is proposed (‘Candidatus Nanopelagicales’) with two new genera and nine new species and a surprising degree of inter- and intraspecific diversity in metabolic pathways, especially of carbohydrate transport and metabolism, and mainly encoded in genomic islands.
