Sequencing technology advances have opened the field of metagenomics, enabling the exploration of microbial communities in various environments, thanks to bioinformatics analysis algorithms and pipelines. Uncovering the versatility of metagenomics in various domains is an essential step for environmental studies, agriculture, and human health. In particular the mixture of fungi and bacteria for creating synthetic communities is an emerging field of interest in many countries with a focus on crop health, soil microbiota, and rhizosphere interactions.
The workshop will conclude with a mini-symposium that aims to highlight some real-life analysis workflows and results. This could potentially open enthusiastic perspectives and collaborations between lab and field researchers, expert bioinformaticians, and other interested scientists in agriculture and human health.
