Javier is the co-coordinaror of PR2... Warn congratulations.

A paper using the PR2 and metaPR2 database.

Nice paper making use of PR2

@daniel-vaulot.bsky.social presenting the @pr2-database.bsky.social at our DNA metabarcoding course at @biovitenskap.bsky.social A very good new addition to our biannual course 👏

Grateful I got the opportunity to contribute to this amazing resource #ProtistsOnSky

I am very happy that ROD (The Ribosomal Operon Database) is now included in the outstanding PR2 web interface, enhancing its accessibility and utility. I hope to make some updates to ROD in the near future. with @drhyfe.bsky.social

Announcing the new release of the PR2 database, version 5.1. pr2-database.org/post/news/20... Very big thanks to all the contributors: @fonamental.bsky.social @ambonacolta.bsky.social @krabberod.bsky.social and more... A few highlights:

The PR2, metaPR2 and PR2-primers websites will be off in the coming days as we are switching from R 3.6 to R 4.4.

Protists are not just sequences, they have incredible shapes...

New paper using PR2.

Looks like a very good tool to use with the PR2 database.

Check out raxtax, our new open-source tool for taxonomic classification of barcoding sequences, it's 2.7-1000 times faster than competing tools and also implements fancy uncertainty scores: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

A tool to use with the metaPR2 datasets ?

All PR2 shiny servers are back up and running...

From the Richter lab in Barcelona... new species are always exciting...

Join a world renowned marine lab in France. New Junior Professor Chair (CPJ) opened in the Biological Station in Roscoff. The position is focused on the ecological, evolutionary, and functional roles of marine fungi, crucial to understanding our oceans. www.sb-roscoff.fr/fr/2025/02/2...

Very interesting paper #usingPR2

Registration is now open for the ForBio/UiO course “Bioinformatics for environmental DNA sequencing” @biovitenskap.bsky.social @drhyfe.bsky.social @krabberod.bsky.social @ramalok.bsky.social www.forbio.uio.no/events/cours...

This very interesting Nature paper uses the metaPR2 database to assess the distribution of DPH containing diatoms.

A new #StarterPack with scientist specialized in microbial bioinformatics - #MicroBioInf. Please comment if you would like to be added: go.bsky.app/5h7VaGm Looking forward to the discussions!

Happy to be part of this effort led by Rubén González-Miguéns: A Novel Taxonomic Database for eukaryotic Mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I Gene (eKOI) https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.12.05.626972v1 eKOI will be integrated into @pr2-database.bsky.social 🙌 #protistsonsky

New preprint led by Ruben Gonzalez-Miguens for a new coi database that should be useful to annotate metabarcoding datasets with protists. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
