Bioinformatics technology developed at Argonne provides new insight into microbial activities
Scientists may gain a new insight into the relationship between viruses and their environments thanks to a new computational technology developed by researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory. This technology has already been used to identify subtle differences... view more (2008-03-17)

DOE JGI sets 'gold standard' for metagenomic data analysis
With the advent of more powerful and economical DNA sequencing technologies, gene discovery and characterization is transitioning from single-organism studies to revealing the potential biotechnology applications embedded in communities of microbial genomes, or metagenomes.   view more (2007-05-15)

Biologists surprised to find parochial bacterial viruses
Biologists examining ecosystems similar to those that existed on Earth more than 3 billion years ago have made a surprising discovery: Viruses that infect bacteria are sometimes parochial and unrelated to their counterparts in other regions of the globe.   view more (2008-03-05)

DOE JGI releases experimental metagenomics data management & analysis system
To tackle the computational challenges of analyzing the complex world of microbial communities, the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) has released to the worldwide research community IMG/M, an experimental metagenome data management and analysis system.   view more (2006-03-30)
