George N, Zhou Z, Anantharaman K, Hug L
bioRxiv . 2024 Jun; PMID: 38854013
Background: Viruses are the most abundant microbial entity on the planet, impacting microbial community structure and ecosystem services. Despite outnumbering Bacteria and Archaea by an order of magnitude, viruses have...

Gregoire D, George N, Hug L
Nat Commun . 2023 Nov; 14(1):7402. PMID: 37973978
Landfills generate outsized environmental footprints due to microbial degradation of organic matter in municipal solid waste, which produces the potent greenhouse gas methane. With global solid waste production predicted to...

Sauk A, Hug L
ISME Commun . 2023 Nov; 2(1):58. PMID: 37938269
Microbial communities in landfills transform waste and generate methane in an environment unique from other built and natural environments. Landfill microbial diversity has predominantly been observed at the phylum level,...

Li W, Kari L, Yu Y, Hug L
PLoS One . 2023 Aug; 18(8):e0283536. PMID: 37594964
We propose MT-MAG, a novel machine learning-based software tool for the complete or partial hierarchically-structured taxonomic classification of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs). MT-MAG is alignment-free, with k-mer frequencies being the only...

George N, Hug L
Sci Rep . 2023 Apr; 13(1):5611. PMID: 37019939
Viruses are the most abundant microbial guild on the planet, impacting microbial community structure and ecosystem services. Viruses are specifically understudied in engineered environments, including examinations of their host interactions....
