Long-read metagenomics of soil communities reveals phylum-specific secondary metabolite dynamics
Marc Van Goethem et al. combine short- and long-read sequencing from biocrust samples to report nearly 3,000 biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encoding microbial secondary metabolites. Their results demonstrate the advantage of integrated metatranscriptomic and long-read metagenomic sequencing in an...
