ASaiM-MT: a validated and optimized ASaiM workflow for metatranscriptomics analysis within Galaxy framework.

ABSTRACT: The Earth Microbiome Project (EMP) aided in understanding the role of microbial communities and the influence of collective genetic material (the 'microbiome') and microbial diversity patterns across the habitats of our planet. With the evolution of new sequencing technologies, researchers can now investigate the microbiome and map its influence on the environment and human health. Advances in bioinformatics methods for next-generation sequencing (NGS) data analysis have helped researchers to gain an in-depth knowledge about the taxonomic and genetic composition of microbial communities. Metagenomic-based methods have been the most commonly used approaches for microbiome analysis; however, it primarily extracts information about taxonomic composition and genetic potential of the microbiome
