Reframing Phylogenomics
The document outlines a research project led by Joe Parker focused on advancing phylogenetic methods in environmental metagenomics, specifically in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. It discusses the integration of high-throughput phylogenomics, machine-learning techniques, and various computing resources to improve taxonomic and genetic analyses. Key goals include the development of new software tools and frameworks to facilitate unbiased discovery of gene functions and evolutionary patterns.

- #6 00s I could pick, this is one - Typical example of an environmental metagenomics question: oil spill effects on marine micro? Sediment cores, 50 sites single gene, handful of genomes MDS could distinguish some signal w/ geochemical variables, found some taxa, some new How many more new? Similarity based Slow Sequences embody Information, including important on adaptation etc - wasted *** Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill – spring 2010 ~4.1 million barrels of oil to the Gulf of Mexico; >22% of this oil is unaccounted for, 64 sites by targeted sequencing of 16S rRNA genes, shotgun metagenomic sequencing of 14 samples 16S rRNA: most heavily oil-impacted sediments enriched in an uncultured Gammaproteobacterium and a Colwellia species, both of which were highly similar to sequences in the DWH deep-sea hydrocarbon plume. The primary drivers in structuring the microbial community were nitrogen and hydrocarbons. Annotation of unassembled metagenomic data revealed the most abundant hydrocarbon degradation pathway encoded genes involved in degrading aliphatic and simple aromatics via butane monooxygenase. Further, analysis of metagenomic sequence data revealed an increase in abundance of genes involved in denitrification pathways in samples that exceeded the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s benchmarks for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) compared with those that did not. Importantly, these data demonstrate that the indigenous sediment microbiota contributed an important ecosystem service for remediation of oil in the Gulf. However, PAHs were more recalcitrant to degradation, and their persistence could have deleterious impacts on the sediment ecosystem.
- #7 Given observed microbial diversity Phylogeny reveals evolutionary history; trait acquired once? Or multiple times – biologically significant…
- #8 Why aren’t there more phylogenetics in environmental micro? Orthology assumptions from classical phylogenetics Simple case, defined as orthologous when gene and species histories identical. Genes = taxa, and vice versa Gene duplications give rise to paralogous copies, may confuse – esp similarity matching Secondary copies.. Or deletions screw up more !microbial communities! Horizontal transfer
- #9 This is a COMPLETELY NOVEL approach Continuous analysis, agent-based – outputs instantly with increasing resolution How I envisage it working: [1] collection of short-read envir. Metagen. Sequences, low complexity [2] tiled into pseudo assemblies by similarity clustering. may be chimeric may be orthologous or paralogous I CALL THESE RAFT-ALIGNED-READS, and this step CRYSTALISATION each raft handled by an agent increased local order, still globally disordered [3] we can compute phylogenetic measures along sliding windows within a raft. These measure the coherence of the evolutionary signal along the raft [4] areas of great incoherence I CALL PHYLOGENETIC STRESS – thrse might correspond to chimeric reads, e.g. other taxa; paralogues; horiz transfer [5] agents can compare stress values and attempt to exchange reads; proportional to stress. I CALL THIS DISLOCATION [6] iteration towards maximally globally ordered state
