Since bacteria use small molecules to mediate microbial competition, microbial cooperation, and environment sensing and adaptation, we hypothesize that identifying the suite of small molecules produced by bacteria that are living in urban environments will reveal hidden traits of their AMR and successful colonization.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The MetaSUB Consortium is now benchmarking bioinformatics tools available for metagenomic analysis with the goal of identifying and developing the most reliable methods for studying<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":40,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"folder":[141],"class_list":["post-4567","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Bioinformatics Analysis - MetaSUB<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"http:\/\/metasub.org\/methods\/bioinformatics-analysis\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Bioinformatics Analysis - MetaSUB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The MetaSUB Consortium is now benchmarking bioinformatics tools available for metagenomic analysis with the goal of identifying and developing the most reliable methods for studying\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"http:\/\/metasub.org\/methods\/bioinformatics-analysis\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"MetaSUB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2016-06-21T15:06:10+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@metasub\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/metasub.org\/#organization\",\"name\":\"MetaSUB\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/metasub.org\/\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCxjLXdSd6CqXM1kubIZtBYg1s0GMMzPUSaePQlxKH\",\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/metasub\"],\"logo\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/metasub.org\/#logo\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/metasub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/MetaSUB-Logo_final.png\",\"contentUrl\":\"http:\/\/metasub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/MetaSUB-Logo_final.png\",\"width\":1296,\"height\":460,\"caption\":\"MetaSUB\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/metasub.org\/#logo\"}},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/metasub.org\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/metasub.org\/\",\"name\":\"MetaSUB\",\"description\":\"Metagenomics &amp;
