This month’s Genome Watch highlights how next-generation sequencing technologies provide crucial information during disease outbreaks and thus inform the public health response.
This month’s Genome Watch highlights the use of metagenomics to survey urban waste waters as a proxy for studying the gut microbiota in the local population and discusses how predictive models based on this data could inform public health.
This month’s Genome Watch highlights discoveries of high variability in the genes underlying cytoplasmic incompatibility among Wolbachia strains that help identify the best strains to use for the control of vector-borne diseases such as Zika virus and malaria.
This month’s Genome Watch discusses how a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms of antimalarial drug resistance can maximize the utility of genomic surveillance programs in informing the most effective drug policy.
This month's Genome Watch highlights how a better understanding of genotype–phenotype correlation may lead to the design of new diagnostic tests for antimicrobial resistance in clinical settings.
This month's Genome Watch discusses the detailed analysis of the human 'archaeome' from various body sites and highlights how current sequencing methods underestimate archaeal diversity and abundance.
