Oral administration of antibiotics increased the potential mobility of bacterial resistance genes in the gut of the fish Piaractus mesopotamicus.

Aquaculture is on the rise worldwide, and the use of antibiotics is fostering higher production intensity. However, recent findings suggest that the use of antibiotics comes at the price of increased antibiotic resistance. Yet, the effect of the oral administration of antibiotics on the mobility of microbial resistance genes in the fish gut is not well understood. In the present study, Piaractus mesopotamicus was used as a model to evaluate the effect of the antimicrobial florfenicol on the diversity of the gut microbiome as well as antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) using a metagenomic approach.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


eggNOG (tool)

RRID:SCR_002456

A database of orthologous groups of genes. The orthologous groups are annotated with functional description lines (derived by identifying a common denominator for the genes based on their various annotations), with functional categories (i.e derived from the original COG/KOG categories). eggNOG's database currently counts 1.7 million orthologous groups in 3686 species, covering over 7.7 million proteins (built from 9.6 million proteins).

Hmmer (tool)

RRID:SCR_005305

Tool for searching sequence databases for homologs of protein sequences, and for making protein sequence alignments. It implements methods using probabilistic models called profile hidden Markov models (profile HMMs). Compared to BLAST, FASTA, and other sequence alignment and database search tools based on older scoring methodology, HMMER aims to be significantly more accurate and more able to detect remote homologs because of the strength of its underlying mathematical models. In the past, this strength came at significant computational expense, but in the new HMMER3 project, HMMER is now essentially as fast as BLAST.

DeconSeq (tool)

RRID:SCR_007006

Software tool to automatically detect and efficiently remove sequence contaminations from genomic and metagenomic datasets. It is easily configurable and provides a user-friendly interface. The user can upload FASTA or FASTQ files and select the databases used for contamination screening, including seven human genomes, bacterial genomes, and viral genomes. The user can set the thresholds interactivly and see the results directly using the functionality of the graphical interface. The results can be downloaded in joined or separated files in different formats. The coverage-identity plots provide additional information that can guide the selections of the thresholds using color coded points and connecting lines.

AdapterRemoval (tool)

RRID:SCR_011834

Software program to remove residual adapter sequences from next generation sequencing reads. Used for cleaning of next-generation sequencing reads. AdapterRemoval v2 introduces improvements in throughput, through use of single instruction, multiple data (SIMD; SSE1 and SSE2) instructions and multi-threading support; handles datasets containing reads or read-pairs with different adapters or adapter pairs; provides simultaneous demultiplexing and adapter trimming; has ability to reconstruct adapter sequences from paired-end reads for poorly documented data sets; provides native gzip and bzip2 support.

RRID:SCR_014609

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on February 28,2023. Algorithm for high-dimensional biomarker discovery and explanation that identifies genes, pathways, or taxa characterizing the differences between two or more biological conditions. The algorithm identifies features that are statistically different among biological classes, then performs additional tests to assess whether these differences are consistent with respect to expected biological behavior. Statistical significance and biological relevance are emphasized.
