Microbiome determinants of productivity in aquaculture of whiteleg shrimp.

Applied and environmental microbiology
UNLABELLED: Aquaculture holds immense promise for addressing the food needs of our growing global population. Yet, a quantitative understanding of the factors that control its efficiency and productivity has remained elusive. In this study, we addres...

aurora: a machine learning gwas tool for analyzing microbial habitat adaptation.

Genome biology
A primary goal of microbial genome-wide association studies is identifying genomic variants associated with a particular habitat. Existing tools fail to identify known causal variants if the analyzed trait shaped the phylogeny. Furthermore, due to in...

Equitable machine learning counteracts ancestral bias in precision medicine.

Nature communications
Gold standard genomic datasets severely under-represent non-European populations, leading to inequities and a limited understanding of human disease. Therapeutics and outcomes remain hidden because we lack insights that could be gained from analyzing...

Machine learning models accurately predict clades of proteocephalidean tapeworms (Onchoproteocephalidea) based on host and biogeographical data.

Cladistics : the international journal of the Willi Hennig Society
Proteocephalids are a cosmopolitan and diverse group of tapeworms (Cestoda) that have colonized vertebrate hosts in freshwater and terrestrial environments. Despite the ubiquity of the group, key macroevolutionary processes that have driven the group...

Decoding the blueprint of receptor binding by filoviruses through large-scale binding assays and machine learning.

Cell host & microbe
Evidence suggests that bats are important hosts of filoviruses, yet the specific species involved remain largely unidentified. Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) is an essential entry receptor, with amino acid variations influencing viral susceptibility and spec...

Identifying human activities causing water pollution based on microbial community sequencing and source classifier machine learning.

Environment international
Identifying and differentiating human activities is crucial for effectively preventing the threats posed by environmental pollution to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Machine learning (ML) is a powerful analytical tool for tracking human impacts...

Comparative analysis of the human microbiome from four different regions of China and machine learning-based geographical inference.

mSphere
The human microbiome, the community of microorganisms that reside on and inside the human body, is critically important for health and disease. However, it is influenced by various factors and may vary among individuals residing in distinct geographi...

Neural network-based predictions of antimicrobial resistance phenotypes in multidrug-resistant from whole genome sequencing and gene expression.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) potentially represents a rapid approach for antimicrobial resistance genotype-to-phenotype prediction. However, the challenge still exists to predict fully minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and antimicrobial susce...

Phylogenomics and phylogeographic model testing using convolutional neural networks reveal a history of recent admixture in the Canarian Kleinia neriifolia.

Molecular ecology
Multiple-island endemics (MIE) are considered ideal natural subjects to study patterns of island colonization that involve recent population-level genetic processes. Kleinia neriifolia is a Canarian MIE widespread across the archipelago, which exhibi...

Deep learning to capture leaf shape in plant images: Validation by geometric morphometrics.

The Plant journal : for cell and molecular biology
Plant leaves play a pivotal role in automated species identification using deep learning (DL). However, achieving reproducible capture of leaf variation remains challenging due to the inherent "black box" problem of DL models. To evaluate the effecti...
