Abstract

Environmental temperature can be accurately inferred from the DNA composition of microbial communities across marine and soil ecosystems, using machine learning and based on tetranucleotide frequencies. GC content shows an opposing trend to temperature in these environments, associated with differences in nutrient availability.

环境温度被编码在微生物群落的宏基因组中。

利用机器学习和基于四核苷酸频率，可以从海洋和土壤生态系统中微生物群落的DNA组成中准确推断环境温度。在这些环境中，气相色谱含量与温度呈相反的趋势，这与养分有效性的差异有关。

期刊介绍： Nature Microbiology aims to cover a comprehensive range of topics related to microorganisms. This includes: Evolution: The journal is interested in exploring the evolutionary aspects of microorganisms. This may include research on their genetic diversity, adaptation, and speciation over time. Physiology and cell biology: Nature Microbiology seeks to understand the functions and characteristics of microorganisms at the cellular and physiological levels. This may involve studying their metabolism, growth patterns, and cellular processes. Interactions: The journal focuses on the interactions microorganisms have with each other, as well as their interactions with hosts or the environment. This encompasses investigations into microbial communities, symbiotic relationships, and microbial responses to different environments. Societal significance: Nature Microbiology recognizes the societal impact of microorganisms and welcomes studies that explore their practical applications. This may include research on microbial diseases, biotechnology, or environmental remediation. In summary, Nature Microbiology is interested in research related to the evolution, physiology and cell biology of microorganisms, their interactions, and their societal relevance.
