The 16S Rrna Gene

ABSTRACTThe genomic DNA from four species of ixodid ticks in western Canada was tested for the presence ofRickettsiellaby PCR analyses targeting the 16S rRNA gene. Eighty-eight percent of theIxodes angustus(n= 270), 43% of theI. sculptus(n= 61), and 4% of theI. kingi(n= 93) individuals examined were PCR positive forRickettsiella, whereas there was no evidence for the presence ofRickettsiellainDermacentor andersoni(n= 45). Three different single-strand conformation polymorphism profiles of the 16S rRNA gene were detected among amplicons derived fromRickettsiella-positive ticks, each corresponding to a different sequence type. Furthermore, each sequence type was associated with a different tick species. Phylogenetic analyses of sequence data of the 16S rRNA gene and three other genes (rpsA,gidA, andsucB) revealed that all three sequence types were placed in a clade that contained species and pathotypes of the genusRickettsiella. The bacterium inI. kingirepresented the sister taxon to theRickettsiellainI. sculptus, and both formed a clade withRickettsiellagryllifrom crickets (Gryllus bimaculatus) and “R. ixodidis” fromI. woodi. In contrast, theRickettsiellainI. angustuswas not a member of this clade but was placed external to the clade comprising the pathotypes ofR. popilliae. The results indicate the existence of at least two new species ofRickettsiella: one inI. angustusand another inI. kingiandI. sculptus. However, theRickettsiellastrains inI. kingiandI. sculptusmay also represent different species because each had unique sequences for all four genes.

Analysis of 16S rRNA genes is important for phylogenetic classification of known and novel bacterial genera and species and for detection of uncultivable bacteria. PCR amplification of 16S rRNA genes with universal primers produces a mixture of amplicons from all rRNA operons in the genome, and the sequence data generally yield a consensus sequence. Here we describe valuable data that are missing from consensus sequences, variable effects on sequence data generated from nonidentical 16S rRNA amplicons, and the appearance of data displayed by different software programs. These effects are illustrated by analysis of 16S rRNA genes from 50 strains of theBacillus cereusgroup, i.e.,Bacillus anthracis,Bacillus cereus,Bacillus mycoides, andBacillus thuringiensis. These species have 11 to 14 rRNA operons, and sequence variability occurs among the multiple 16S rRNA genes. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) previously reported to be specific toB. anthraciswas detected in someB. cereusstrains. However, a different SNP, at position 1139, was identified as being specific toB. anthracis, which is a biothreat agent with high mortality rates. Compared with visual analysis of the electropherograms, basecaller software frequently missed gene sequence variations or could not identify variant bases due to overlapping basecalls. Accurate detection of 16S rRNA gene sequences that include intragenomic variations can improve discrimination among closely related species, improve the utility of 16S rRNA databases, and facilitate rapid bacterial identification by targeted DNA sequence analysis or by whole-genome sequencing performed by clinical or reference laboratories.

Metagenomic Sequence Data

ABSTRACT Despite progress understanding microbial communities involved in terrestrial vertebrate decomposition, little is known about the microbial decomposition of aquatic vertebrates from a functional and environmental context. Here, we analyzed temporal changes in the “necrobiome” of rainbow darters, which are common North American fish that are sensitive indicators of water quality. By combining 16S rRNA gene and shotgun metagenomic sequence data from four time points, we studied the progression of decomposers from both taxonomic and functional perspectives. The 16S rRNA gene profiles revealed strong community succession, with early decomposition stages associated with Aeromonas and Clostridium taxa and later stages dominated by members of the Rikenellaceae (i.e., Alistipes/Acetobacteroides genera). These results were reproducible and independent of environmental perturbation, given that exposure to wastewater treatment plant effluent did not substantially influence the necrobiome composition of fish or the associated water sample microbiota. Metagenomic analysis revealed significant changes throughout decomposition in degradation pathways for amino acids, carbohydrates/glycans, and other compounds, in addition to putrefaction pathways for production of putrescine, cadaverine, and indole. Binning of contigs confirmed a predominance of Aeromonas genome assemblies, including those from novel strains related to the pathogen Aeromonas veronii. These bins of Aeromonas genes also encoded known hemolysin toxins (e.g., aerolysin) that were particularly abundant early in the process, potentially contributing to host cell lysis during decomposition. Overall, our results demonstrate that wild-caught fish have a reproducible decomposer succession and that the fish necrobiome serves as a potential source of putative pathogens and toxigenic bacteria. IMPORTANCE The microbial decomposition of animal tissues is an important ecological process that impacts nutrient cycling in natural environments. We studied the microbial decomposition of a common North American fish (rainbow darters) over four time points, combining 16S rRNA gene and shotgun metagenomic sequence data to obtain both taxonomic and functional perspectives. Our data revealed a strong community succession that was reproduced across different fish and environments. Decomposition time point was the main driver of community composition and functional potential; fish environmental origin (upstream or downstream of a wastewater treatment plant) had a secondary effect. We also identified strains related to the putative pathogen Aeromonas veronii as dominant members of the decomposition community. These bacteria peaked early in decomposition and coincided with the metagenomic abundance of hemolytic toxin genes. Our work reveals a strong decomposer succession in wild-caught fish, providing functional and taxonomic insights into the vertebrate necrobiome.

The taxonomic positions of two novel actinomycetes, designated strains BNT558T and SM3501T, were established by using a polyphasic approach. The organisms had chemical and morphological features that were consistent with their classification in the genus Streptomyces . The whole-cell hydrolysates of the two strains contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8) for strain BNT558T and MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6) for strain SM3501T. Major fatty acids of the strains were anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. The polar lipid profile of strain BNT558T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, one unidentified glycolipid and one unidentified aminophospholipid, while that of strain SM3501T consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified atypical aminolipids, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified glycolipids. The G+C contents of the genomic DNA were 70.2 and 69.6 mol% for strains BNT558T and SM3501T, respectively. 16S rRNA gene sequence data supported the classification of the isolates in the genus Streptomyces and showed that they formed two distinct branches within the genus. Based on almost-complete 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain BNT558T was related most closely to Streptomyces albiaxialis NRRL B-24327T and strain SM3501T was related most closely to Streptomyces cacaoi subsp. cacaoi NBRC 12748T. DNA–DNA relatedness between each of the isolates and its closest phylogenetic neighbours showed that they belonged to distinct species. The two isolates were readily distinguished from one another and from the type strains of the other species classified in the genus Streptomyces based on a combination of phenotypic and genotypic properties. Based on the genotypic and phenotypic evidence, strains BNT558T and SM3501T belong to two novel species in the genus Streptomyces , for which the names Streptomyces iconiensis sp. nov. (type strain BNT558T = KCTC 29198T = DSM 42109T) and Streptomyces smyrnaeus sp. nov. (type strain SM3501T = KCTC 29214T = DSM 42105T) are proposed, respectively.

Bacterium Strain

Strain CH15-11T, isolated from a sediment sample taken from Daechung Reservoir, South Korea, during the late-blooming period of cyanobacteria, was found to be a Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped and aerobic bacterium. Strain CH15-11T grew optimally at pH 7 and 28–30 °C. According to a phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain CH15-11T belonged to the genus Sphingomonas and clustered with Sphingomonas sediminicola Dae 20T, with which it shared the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (97.6 %). Chemotaxonomic analysis showed that strain CH15-11T had characteristics typical of members of the genus Sphingomonas , such as the presence of sphingoglycolipid, ubiquinone Q-10 and sym-homospermidine. Plus, strain CH15-11T included summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c) and C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 65.6 mol%. Sequence data showed that strain CH15-11T was most closely related to Sphingomonas sediminicola Dae 20T (97.6 %), Sphingomonas ginsengisoli Gsoil 634T (97.2 %) and Sphingomonas jaspi TDMA-16T (97.0 %). However, the DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain CH15-11T and the most closely related type strains were within a range of 35–59 %. Thus, based on the phylogenetic, phenotypic and genetic data, strain CH15-11T was classified as a member of the genus Sphingomonas as a representative of a novel species, for which the name Sphingomonas daechungensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CH15-11T ( = KCTC 23718T = JCM 17887T).

Emended Description

Strain CPCC 203383T, isolated from the surface-sterilized fruit of Cerasus pseudocerasus (Lindl.) G. Don, was taxonomically characterized based on a polyphasic investigation. It had the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Ornithinimicrobium pekingense DSM 21552 (97.2 %) and O. kibberense DSM 17687T (97.2%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain formed a distinct phyletic branch within the genus Ornithinimicrobium and the whole genome sequence data analyses supported that strain CPCC 203383T was phylogenetically related to the Ornithinimicrobium species. The isolate shared a range of phenotypic patterns reported for members of the genus Ornithinimicrobium , but also had a range of cultural, physiological and biochemical characteristics that separated it from related Ornithinimicrobium species. The menaquinone was MK-8(H4). The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and unidentified lipids (ULs). The major fatty acids (>5 %) were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16:0, 9-methyl C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The cell wall peptidoglycan contains l-ornithine as diagnostic diamino acid and an interpeptide bridge consisting of L-Orn←L-Ala←Gly←D-Asp. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data indicated that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Ornithinimicrobium, for which the name Ornithinimicrobium cerasi sp. nov. is proposed, with CPCC 203383T(=NBRC 113522T=KCTC 49200T) as the type strain. The DNA G+C composition is 72.3 mol%. The availability of new data allows for an emended description of the genus Ornithinimicrobium .

Type Strains

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated BSSL-BM3T, was isolated from sand collected from a dune near the Yellow Sea, Republic of Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. The neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain BSSL-BM3T fell within the clade comprising the type strains of Arenibacter species. Strain BSSL-BM3T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 98.0–99.0 % to the type strains of Arenibacter catalasegens , Arenibacter hampyeongensis , Arenibacter echinorum , Arenibacter palladensis and Arenibacter troitsensis and of 94.2–96.7 % to the type strains of the other Arenibacter species. The averagenucleotide identity and digitalDNA–DNA hybridization values between strain BSSL-BM3T and the type strains of A. catalasegens , A. hampyeongensis , A. echinorum , A. palladensis and A. troitsensis were 82.2–88.8 % and 25.0–36.5 %, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain BSSL-BM3T from genomic sequence data was 38.75 mol%. Strain BSSL-BM3T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω7c and/or C16 : 1  ω6c) and iso-C15 : 1 G as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids of strain BSSL-BM3T were phosphatidylethanolamine and two unidentified lipids. Distinguishing phenotypic properties, along with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain BSSL-BM3T is separated from recognized Arenibacter species. On the basis of the data presented here, strain BSSL-BM3T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Arenibacter , for which the name Arenibacter arenosicollis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BSSL-BM3T (=KACC 21632T=NBRC 114502T).

The 16S Rrna Gene

Strain S658T was isolated from a Lotus corniculatus nodule in a soil sample obtained in Uruguay. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene and atpD gene showed that this strain clustered within the genus Phyllobacterium . The closest related species was, in both cases, Phyllobacterium trifolii PETP02T with 99.8 % sequence similarity in the 16S rRNA gene and 96.1 % in the atpD gene. The 16S rRNA gene contains an insert at the beginning of the sequence that has no similarities with other inserts present in the same gene in described rhizobial species. Ubiquinone Q-10 was the only quinone detected. Strain S658T differed from its closest relatives through its growth in diverse culture conditions and in the assimilation of several carbon sources. It was not able to reproduce nodules in Lotus corniculatus. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization, phenotypic tests and fatty acid analyses confirmed that this strain should be classified as a representative of a novel species of the genus Phyllobacterium , for which the name Phyllobacterium loti sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S658T( = LMG 27289T = CECT 8230T).
