This workshop has brought together representatives of groups developing catalogues of bio-resources and its aims were twofold:

1. Ensure that BioSharing (www.biosharing.org), a catalogue of minimal information checklists, terminologies and exchange formats (hereafter called standards) and policies, complements and links to existing catalogues of tools and databases, and also to publications and related material;

2. Outline the technical implementations of the bioDBcore checklist (www.biodbcore.org), the proposed uniform system for describing the catalogues of tools and databases, in particular, how to ensure (bi-directional) linking to the BioSharing catalogue.... |

On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing, the SAR11 clade of marine bacteria has almost universal distribution, being detected as abundant sequences in all marine provinces. Yet SAR11 sequences are rarely detected in fosmid libraries, suggesting that the widespread abundance may be an artefact of PCR cloning and that SAR 11 has a relatively low abundance. Here the relative abundance of SAR11 is explored in both a fosmid library and a metagenomic sequence data set from the same biological community taken from fjord surface water from Bergen, Norway. Pyrosequenced data and 16S clone data confirmed an 11-15% relative abundance of SAR11 within the community. In contrast not a single SAR11 fosmid was identified in a pooled shotgun sequenced data set of 100... |

We present a tool that automatically detects ontological terms in free text. Once candidate terms have been identified the results are displayed either overlaid on the original text or in a list organised by the ontology and frequency. The user can interactively accept or reject each match, or try to find a more appropriate match by exploring the network of ontology concepts themselves. In typical ontological resources, the parent(s) of a term represent broader concepts whilst the children of a term represent more specific concepts. In this way, the suggested match can used as a starting point for the user to find a more suitable term. The ontology browser interface incorporates a graphical visualisation which uses Flash to present an interactive view of... |

Marine bacterial diversity is vast, but seasonal variation in diversity is poorly understood. Here we present the longest bacterial diversity time series consisting of monthly (72) samples from the western English Channel over a 6 year period (2003-2008) using 747,494 16SrDNA-V6 amplicon-pyrosequences. Although there were characteristic cycles for each phylum, the overall community cycle was remarkably stable year after year. The majority of taxa were not abundant, although on occasion these rare bacteria could dominate the assemblage. Bacterial diversity peaked at the winter solstice and showed remarkable synchronicity with day-length, which had the best explanatory power compared to a combination of other variables (including temperature and nutrient... |

Organized by members of the BioSharing initiative (www.biosharing.org) and the International Society for Biocuration (ISB, www.biocurator.org), this workshop brought together developers, curators, journal editors and researchers to discuss the growing number of (closely related efforts) developing to catalogues of tools, databases, related data and publications.

The focus on the workshop was a strawman uniform system for describing these bio-resources (www.biodbcore.org), in particular, indicating in a consistent manner which community-defined standards (minimal information checklists, terminologies and exchange formats) they implement (www.biosharing.org/standards).
