Heterotrophic Denitrification

ABSTRACTMost isolated nitrate-reducing Fe(II)-oxidizing microorganisms are mixotrophic, meaning that Fe(II) is chemically oxidized by nitrite that forms during heterotrophic denitrification, and it is debated to which extent Fe(II) is enzymatically oxidized. One exception is the chemolithoautotrophic enrichment culture KS, a consortium consisting of a dominant Fe(II) oxidizer,Gallionellaceaesp., and less abundant heterotrophic strains (e.g.,Bradyrhizobiumsp.,Nocardioidessp.). Currently, this is the only nitrate-reducing Fe(II)-oxidizing culture for which autotrophic growth has been demonstrated convincingly for many transfers over more than 2 decades. We used 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and physiological growth experiments to analyze the community composition and dynamics of culture KS with various electron donors and acceptors. Under autotrophic conditions, an operational taxonomic unit (OTU) related to known microaerophilic Fe(II) oxidizers within the familyGallionellaceaedominated culture KS. With acetate as an electron donor, most 16S rRNA gene sequences were affiliated withBradyrhizobiumsp.Gallionellaceaesp. not only was able to oxidize Fe(II) under autotrophic and mixotrophic conditions but also survived over several transfers of the culture on only acetate, although it then lost the ability to oxidize Fe(II).Bradyrhizobiumspp. became and remained dominant when culture KS was cultivated for only one transfer under heterotrophic conditions, even when conditions were reverted back to autotrophic in the next transfer. This study showed a dynamic microbial community in culture KS that responded to changing substrate conditions, opening up questions regarding carbon cross-feeding, metabolic flexibility of the individual strains in KS, and the mechanism of Fe(II) oxidation by a microaerophile in the absence of O2.IMPORTANCENitrate-reducing Fe(II)-oxidizing microorganisms are present in aquifers, soils, and marine and freshwater sediments. Most nitrate-reducing Fe(II) oxidizers known are mixotrophic, meaning that they need organic carbon to continuously oxidize Fe(II) and grow. In these microbes, Fe(II) was suggested to be chemically oxidized by nitrite that forms during heterotrophic denitrification, and it remains unclear whether or to what extent Fe(II) is enzymatically oxidized. In contrast, the enrichment culture KS was shown to oxidize Fe(II) autotrophically coupled to nitrate reduction. This culture contains the designated Fe(II) oxidizerGallionellaceaesp. and several heterotrophic strains (e.g.,Bradyrhizobiumsp.). We showed that culture KS is able to metabolize Fe(II) and a variety of organic substrates and is able to adapt to dynamic environmental conditions. When the community composition changed andBradyrhizobiumbecame the dominant community member, Fe(II) was still oxidized byGallionellaceaesp., even when culture KS was cultivated with acetate/nitrate [Fe(II) free] before being switched back to Fe(II)/nitrate.

Abstract Background 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing (16S analysis) is widely used to analyze microbiota with next-generation sequencing technologies. Here, we compared fecal 16S analysis data from 192 Japanese volunteers using the modified V1–V2 (V12) and the standard V3–V4 primer (V34) sets to optimize the gut microbiota analysis protocol. Results QIIME1 and QIIME2 analysis revealed a higher number of unclassified representative sequences in the V34 data than in the V12 data. The comparison of bacterial composition demonstrated that at the phylum level, Actinobacteria and Verrucomicrobia were detected at higher levels with V34 than with V12. Among these phyla, we observed higher relative compositions of Bifidobacterium and Akkermansia with V34. To estimate the actual abundance, we performed quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays for Akkermansia and Bifidobacterium. We found that the abundance of Akkermansia as detected by qPCR was close to that in V12 data, but was markedly lower than that in V34 data. The abundance of Bifidobacterium detected by qPCR was higher than that in V12 and V34 data. Conclusions These results indicate that the bacterial composition derived from the V34 region might differ from the actual abundance for specific gut bacteria. We conclude that the use of the modified V12 primer set is more desirable in the 16S analysis of the Japanese gut microbiota.

ABSTRACTAt birth, the human infant gut is sterile, but it becomes fully colonized within a few days. This initial colonization process has a major impact on immune development. Our knowledge about the correlations between aberrant colonization patterns and immunological diseases, however, is limited. The aim of the present work was to develop the GA-map (Genetic Analysis microbiota array platform) infant array and to use this array to compare the temporal development of the gut microbiota in IgE-sensitized and nonsensitized children during the first 2 years of life. The GA-map infant array is composed of highly specific 16S rRNA gene-targeted single nucleotide primer extension (SNuPE) probes, which were designed based on extensive infant 16S rRNA gene sequence libraries. For the clinical screening, we analyzed 216 fecal samples collected from a cohort of 47 infants (16 sensitized and 31 nonsensitized) from 1 day to 2 years of age. The results showed that at a high taxonomic level,Actinobacteriawas significantly overrepresented at 4 months whileFirmicuteswas significantly overrepresented at 1 year for the sensitized children. At a lower taxonomic level, for the sensitized group, we found thatBifidobacterium longumwas significantly overrepresented at the age of 1 year andEnterococcusat the age of 4 months. For most phyla, however, there were consistent differences in composition between age groups, irrespective of the sensitization state. The main age patterns were a rapid decrease in staphylococci from 10 days to 4 months and a peak of bifidobacteria and bacteroides at 4 months. In conclusion, our analyses showed consistent microbiota colonization and IgE sensitization patterns that can be important for understanding both normal and diseased immunological development in infants.

ABSTRACTThe invertebrate microbiome contributes to multiple aspects of host physiology, including nutrient supplementation and immune maturation processes. We identified and compared gut microbial abundance and diversity in natural tsetse flies from Uganda using five genetically distinct populations ofGlossina fuscipes fuscipesand multiple tsetse species (Glossina morsitans morsitans,G. f. fuscipes, andGlossina pallidipes) that occur in sympatry in one location. We used multiple approaches, including deep sequencing of the V4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA gene, 16S rRNA gene clone libraries, and bacterium-specific quantitative PCR (qPCR), to investigate the levels and patterns of gut microbial diversity from a total of 151 individuals. Our results show extremely limited diversity in field flies of different tsetse species. The obligate endosymbiontWigglesworthiadominated all samples (>99%), but we also observed wide prevalence of low-densitySodalis(tsetse's commensal endosymbiont) infections (<0.05%). There were also several individuals (22%) with highSodalisdensity, which also carried coinfections withSerratia. Albeit in low density, we noted differences in microbiota composition among the genetically distinctG. f. fuscipesflies and between different sympatric species. Interestingly,Wigglesworthiadensity varied in different species (104to 106normalized genomes), withG. f. fuscipeshaving the highest levels. We describe the factors that may be responsible for the reduced diversity of tsetse's gut microbiota compared to those of other insects. Additionally, we discuss the implications ofWigglesworthiaandSodalisdensity variations as they relate to trypanosome transmission dynamics and vector competence variations associated with different tsetse species.

Abstract Background: Yersinia enterocolitica is a human-animal-fish-associated infectious diarrhea pathogen that has caused widespread international attention in recent years. Many strains of Yersinia enterocolitica were identified from different animal species, but there is no information reported Yersinia enterocolitica in Gymnocypris przewalskii . The Gymnocypris przewalskii is a very important species in the Qinghai Lake. They were listed in the China' s second-class protected animal species. Preliminary research on the distribution of Yersinia enterocolitica and the drug sensitive fauna test on Gymnocypris przewalskii was a urgent solving problem for which maintain the original ecological symbiotic system and restore Gymnocypris przewalskii resource. In order to solve these issues, we performed this research.Results: The results showed that 5 strains Yersinia enterocolitica were obtained, positive ratio was 6.67% (5/75). The average drug-resistant of 5 strain Yersinia enterocolitica was 54.29% (38/70) to 14 kinds of antibiotic. The result of 16S rRNA gene of Yersinia enterocolitica identified showed that one piece of 1419 bp specific braid was obtained. The homologies of nucleotide of 16S rRNA were 91%-95% between 15 strains of Yersinia enterocolitica from GenBank by measuring sequence.Conclusion: Yersinia enterocolitica can infect Gymnocypris przewalskii . Some strains have drug-resistant effect. The 16S rRNA gene matches 91%-95% with other strains nucleotides download from GenBank and forms a unique branch separated from them.

ABSTRACT Drought is among the most destructive abiotic stresses limiting crop growth and yield worldwide. Although most research has focused on the contribution of plant-associated microbial communities to plant growth and disease suppression, far less is known about the microbes involved in drought resistance among desert plants. In the present study, we applied 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to determine the structure of rhizosphere and root endosphere microbiomes of Alhagi sparsifolia. Compared to those of the rhizosphere, endosphere microbiomes had lower diversity but contained several taxa with higher relative abundance; many of these taxa were also present in the roots of other desert plants. We isolated a Pseudomonas strain (LTGT-11-2Z) that was prevalent in root endosphere microbiomes of A. sparsifolia and promoted drought resistance during incubation with wheat. Complete genome sequencing of LTGT-11-2Z revealed 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminases, siderophore, spermidine, and colanic acid biosynthetic genes, as well as type VI secretion system (T6SS) genes, which are likely involved in biofilm formation and plant-microbe interactions. Together, these results indicate that drought-enduring plants harbor bacterial endophytes favorable to plant drought resistance, and they suggest that novel endophytic bacterial taxa and gene resources may be discovered among these desert plants. IMPORTANCE Understanding microbe-mediated plant resistance to drought is important for sustainable agriculture. We performed 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and culture-dependent functional analyses of Alhagi sparsifolia rhizosphere and root endosphere microbiomes and identified key endophytic bacterial taxa and their genes facilitating drought resistance in wheat. This study improves our understanding of plant drought resistance and provides new avenues for drought resistance improvement in crop plants under field conditions.

Abstract Purpose Although the gut microbiota (GM) are associated with various diseases, their role in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remains uncharacterized. Further study is urgently needed to expose the real relationship between GM and GDM. Methods We performed a prospective study in 33 pregnant Chinese individuals [15, GDM; 18, normal glucose tolerance (NGT)] to observe the fecal microbiota by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing at 24–28 weeks of gestational age after a standard 75 g oral glucose tolerance test. Linear regression analysis was employed to assess the relationships between the GM and GDM clinical parameters. Results Sequencing showed no difference in the microbiota alpha diversity but a significant difference in the beta diversity between the GDM and NGT groups, with the relative abundances of Ruminococcus bromii, Clostridium colinum, and Streptococcus infantis being higher in the GDM group (P < 0.05). The quantitative PCR results validated the putative bacterial markers of R. bromii and S. infantis. Moreover, a strong positive correlation was found between S. infantis and blood glucose levels after adjusting for body mass index (P < 0.05). Conclusion Three abnormally expressed intestinal bacteria (R. bromii, C. colinum, and S. infantis) were identified in GDM patients. S. infantis may confer an increased risk of GDM. Hence, the GM may serve as a potential therapeutic target for GDM.
