Welcome to the website for the mothur project, initiated by Dr. Patrick
Schloss and his software development team in the Department of
Microbiology & Immunology at The University of Michigan. This project
seeks to develop a single piece of open-source, expandable software to
fill the bioinformatics needs of the microbial ecology community. In
February 2009 we released the first version of mothur, which had
accelerated versions of the popular DOTUR and SONS programs. Since then
we have added the functionality of a number of other popular tools.
mothur is currently the most cited bioinformatics tool for analyzing 16S
rRNA gene sequences. Step inside the wiki and user forum and learn how
you can use mothur to process data generated by Sanger, PacBio,
IonTorrent, 454, and Illumina (MiSeq/HiSeq). If you would like to
contribute code to the project feel free to download the source code and
make your own improvements. Alternatively, if you have an idea or a
need, but lack the programming expertise, let us know and we'll add it
to the queue of features we would like to add. Our current goal is to
release a new iteration of the project every couple of months.

podcast about unseen life on Earth hosted by Vincent Racaniello and
friends. Following in the path of his successful shows 'This Week in
Virology' (TWiV) and 'This Week in Parasitism' (TWiP), Racaniello and
guests produce an informal yet informative conversation about microbes
which is accessible to everyone, no matter what their science
background. As a science Professor at Columbia University, Racaniello
has spent his academic career directing a research laboratory focused on
viruses. His enthusiasm for teaching inspired him to reach beyond the
classroom using new media. TWiM is for everyone who wants to learn about
the science of microbiology in a casual way. While there are no exams or
pop quizzes, TWiM does encourage interaction with the audience via
comments on specific episodes, email and Skype. Listeners can also use
www.MicrobeWorld.org to suggest topics for the show by submitting
articles, papers, video and images to the site and tagging them with
"TWiM". Each week Racaniello will view the tagged content and select
items for discussion. For questions and/or feedback please email
ccondayan-at-asmusa.org. …read more
