This study aims to identify and construct molecular phylogeny of an isolate bacteria from culture media of rotifer Brachionus rotudiforis supplied with processed fishery waste feed as nutritional source. The use of fish waste-based food for rotifer showed positive effects on growth and nutrient content of the rotifers. Genomic DNA of the isolate bacteria BRLI- 01 was extracted and the 16S rRNA gene was amplified using primers (8F and 1492F) and further sequenced using Sanger sequence technique. The 16S rRNA gene was analysed using SeqScanner® and MEGA® followed with BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) analyses in the NCBI (National Centre for Biotechnology Information). Amplification result of 16S rRNA gene bacteria s NCBI site as a reference for identification and phylogeny of bacterial species. BRLI-01 was successfully cultured on rotifer rearing media. The results of the 16S rRNA gene amplification of the isolate bacteria showed a DNA band with a length of 1400 bp. The BLAST result on the NCBI showed that the isolate bacteria BRLI-01 had a percent identity (98.46%) and is in the same phylogony branching position with Vibrio rotiferianus Keywords: Rotifers, Bacteria, Fish waste, 16S rRNA Genes, Phylogeny identification

Clover proliferation phytoplasma (CPR) is designated as the reference strain for the CP phylogenetic group or subclade, on the basis of molecular analyses of genomic DNA, the 16S rRNA gene and the 16S–23S spacer region. Other strains related to CPR include alfalfa witches'-broom (AWB), brinjal little leaf (BLL), beet leafhopper-transmitted virescence (BLTV), Illinois elm yellows (ILEY), potato witches'-broom (PWB), potato yellows (PY), tomato big bud in California (TBBc) and phytoplasmas from Fragaria multicipita (FM). Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of BLL, CPR, FM and ILEY, together with sequences from 16 other phytoplasmas that belong to the ash yellows (AshY), jujube witches'-broom (JWB) and elm yellows (EY) groups that were available in GenBank, produced a tree on which these phytoplasmas clearly clustered as a discrete group. Three subgroups have been classified on the basis of sequence homology and the collective RFLP patterns of amplified 16S rRNA genes. AWB, BLTV, PWB and TBBc are assigned to taxonomic subgroup CP-A, FM belongs to subgroup CP-B and BLL and ILEY are assigned to subgroup CP-C. Genetic heterogeneity between different isolates of AWB, CPR and PWB has been observed from heteroduplex mobility assay analysis of amplified 16S rRNA genes and the 16S–23S spacer region. Two unique signature sequences that can be utilized to distinguish the CP group from others were present. On the basis of unique properties of the DNA from clover proliferation phytoplasma, the name ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma trifolii’ is proposed for the CP group.

This study was carried out in order to compare two PCR-based methods in the detection of Streptococcus mutans. The first PCR method was based on primers for the 16S rRNA gene and the second method was based on specific primers that targeted the glucosyltransferase gene (gtfB). Each PCR was performed with eight different streptococci from the viridans group, five other streptococci and 17 different non-streptococcal bacterial strains. Direct use of the S. mutans 16S rRNA gene-specific primers revealed that Streptococcus gordonii and Streptococcus infantis were also detected. After amplifying the 16S rRNA gene with universal primers and subsequently performing nested PCR, the S. mutans-specific nested primers based on the 16S rRNA gene detected all tested streptococci. There was no cross-reaction of the gtfB primers after direct PCR. Our results indicate that direct PCR and nested PCR based on 16S rRNA genes can reveal false-positive results for oral streptococci and lead to an overestimation of the prevalence of S. mutans with regards to its role as the most prevalent causative agent of dental caries.

The published sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of Thiomonas cuprina strain Hö5 (=DSM 5495T) (GenBank accession no. U67162) was found to be erroneous. The 16S rRNA genes from the type strain held by the DSMZ since 1990 (DSM 5495T =NBRC 102145T) and strain Hö5 maintained frozen in the Universität Regensburg for 23 years (=NBRC 102094) were sequenced and found to be identical, but to show no significant similarity to the U67162 sequence. This also casts some doubt on the previously published 5S and 23S rRNA gene sequences (GenBank accession nos U67171 and X75567). The correct 16S rRNA gene sequence showed 99.8 % identity to those from Thiomonas delicata NBRC 14566T and ‘Thiomonas arsenivorans’ DSM 16361. The properties of these three species are re-evaluated, and emended descriptions are provided for the genus Thiomonas and the species Thiomonas cuprina.

Analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes provides a central means of taxonomic classification of bacterial species. Based on presumed sequence identity among species of the Bacillus cereus sensu lato group, the 16S rRNA genes of B. anthracis have been considered unsuitable for diagnosis of the anthrax pathogen. With the recent identification of a single nucleotide polymorphism in some 16S rRNA gene copies, specific identification of B. anthracis becomes feasible. Here, we designed and evaluated a set of in situ-, in vitro- and in silico-assays to assess the yet unknown 16S-state of B. anthracis from different perspectives. Using a combination of digital PCR, fluorescence in situ hybridization, long-read genome sequencing and bioinformatics we were able to detect and quantify a unique 16S rRNA gene allele of B. anthracis (16S-BA-allele). This allele was found in all available B. anthracis genomes and may facilitate differentiation of the pathogen from any close relative. Bioinformatics analysis of 959 B. anthracis genome data-sets inferred that abundances and genomic arrangements of the 16S-BA-allele and the entire rRNA operon copy-numbers differ considerably between strains. Expression ratios of 16S-BA-alleles were proportional to the respective genomic allele copy-numbers. The findings and experimental tools presented here provide detailed insights into the intra- and intergenomic diversity of 16S rRNA genes and may pave the way for improved identification of B. anthracis and other pathogens with diverse rRNA operons.

ABSTRACT We report the design and evaluation of PCR primers 63f and 1387r for amplification of 16S rRNA genes from bacteria. Their specificity and efficacy were tested systematically with a variety of bacterial species and environmental samples. They were found to be more useful for 16S rRNA gene amplification in ecological and systematic studies than PCR amplimers that are currently more generally used.

ABSTRACT The nature in variation of the 16S rRNA gene of members of the Streptococcus anginosus group was investigated by hybridization and DNA sequencing. A collection of 708 strains was analyzed by reverse line blot hybridization. This revealed the presence of distinct reaction patterns representing 11 different hybridization groups. The 16S rRNA genes of two strains of each hybridization group were sequenced to near-completion, and the sequence data confirmed the reverse line blot hybridization results. Closer inspection of the sequences revealed mosaic-like structures, strongly suggesting horizontal transfer of segments of the 16S rRNA gene between different species belonging to the Streptococcus anginosus group. Southern blot hybridization further showed that within a single strain all copies of the 16S rRNA gene had the same composition, indicating that the apparent mosaic structures were not PCR-induced artifacts. These findings indicate that the highly conserved rRNA genes are also subject to recombination and that these events may be fixed in the population. Such recombination may lead to the construction of incorrect phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA genes.

ABSTRACT The diversity of the membrane-bound nitrate reductase (narG) and nitrous oxide reductase (nosZ) genes in fluorescent pseudomonads isolated from soil and rhizosphere environments was characterized together with that of the 16S rRNA gene by a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Fragments of 1,008 bp and 1,433 bp were amplified via PCR with primers specific for the narG and nosZ genes, respectively. The presence of the narG and nosZ genes in the bacterial strains was confirmed by hybridization of the genomic DNA and the PCR products with the corresponding probes. The ability of the strains to either reduce nitrate or totally dissimilate nitrogen was assessed. Overall, there was a good correspondence between the reductase activities and the presence of the corresponding genes. Distribution in the different ribotypes of strains harboring both the narG and nosZ genes and of strains missing both genes suggests that these two groups of strains had different evolutionary histories. Both dissimilatory genes showed high polymorphism, with similarity indexes (Jaccard) of between 0.04 and 0.8, whereas those of the 16S rRNA gene only varied from 0.77 to 0.99. No correlation between the similarity indexes of 16S rRNA and dissimilatory genes was seen, suggesting that the evolution rates of ribosomal and functional genes differ. Pairwise comparison of similarity indexes of the narG and nosZ genes led to the delineation of two types of strains. Within the first type, the similarity indexes of both genes varied in the same range, suggesting that these two genes have followed a similar evolution. Within the second type of strain, the range of variations was higher for the nosZ than for the narG gene, suggesting that these genes have had a different evolutionary rate.

ABSTRACT Low-cost and rescue treatments for Helicobacter pylori infections involve combinations of several drugs including tetracycline. Resistance to tetracycline has recently emerged in H. pylori. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of two tetracycline-resistant clinical isolates (MIC = 64 μg/ml) were determined and compared to the consensus H. pylori 16S rRNA sequence. One isolate had four nucleotide substitutions, and the other had four substitutions and two deletions. Natural transformation with the 16S rRNA genes from the resistant organisms conferred tetracycline resistance on susceptible strains. 16S rRNA genes containing the individual mutations were constructed and tested for the ability to confer resistance. Only the 16S rRNA gene containing the triple mutation, AGA965-967TTC, was able to confer tetracycline resistance on H. pylori 26695. The MICs of tetracycline for the transformed strains were equivalent to those for the original clinical isolates. The two original isolates were also metronidazole resistant, but this trait was not linked to the tetracycline resistance phenotype. Serial passage of several H. pylori strains on increasing concentrations of tetracycline yielded mutants with only a very modest increase in tetracycline resistance to a MIC of 4 to 8 μg/ml. These mutants all had a deletion of G942 in the 16S rRNA genes. The mutations in the 16S rRNA are clearly responsible for tetracycline resistance in H. pylori.

ABSTRACTMethanogenic archaea play a key role in biogas-producing anaerobic digestion and yet remain poorly taxonomically characterized. This is in part due to the limitations of low-throughput Sanger sequencing of a single (16S rRNA) gene, which in the past may have undersampled methanogen diversity. In this study, archaeal communities from three sludge digesters in Hong Kong and one wastewater digester in China were examined using high-throughput pyrosequencing of the methyl coenzyme M reductase (mcrA) and 16S rRNA genes.Methanobacteriales,Methanomicrobiales, andMethanosarcinaleswere detected in each digester, indicating that both hydrogenotrophic and acetoclastic methanogenesis was occurring. Two sludge digesters had similar community structures, likely due to their similar design and feedstock. Taxonomic classification of themcrAgenes suggested that these digesters were dominated by acetoclastic methanogens, particularlyMethanosarcinales, while the other digesters were dominated by hydrogenotrophicMethanomicrobiales. The proposed euryarchaeotal orderMethanomassiliicoccalesand the uncultured WSA2 group were detected with the 16S rRNA gene, and potentialmcrAgenes for these groups were identified. 16S rRNA gene sequencing also recovered several crenarchaeotal groups potentially involved in the initial anaerobic digestion processes. Overall, the two genes produced different taxonomic profiles for the digesters, while greater methanogen richness was detected using themcrAgene, supporting the use of this functional gene as a complement to the 16S rRNA gene to better assess methanogen diversity. A significant positive correlation was detected between methane production and the abundance ofmcrAtranscripts in digesters treating sludge and wastewater samples, supporting themcrAgene as a biomarker for methane yield.

Many of the publically available Bacillus 16S rRNA genes and genomes in the NCBI database are inconsistently assigned as B. amyloliquefaciens. The highly conserved nature of the 16S rRNA gene makes it fail to differentiate species within the operational group B. amyloliquefaciens. Here, comparative phylogenies of the complete 16S rRNA, gyrB, rpoB, trpB, recA, and cheA nucleotide sequences of bacterial strains within the operational group were analyzed. As the result, the gyrB, rpoB, and trpB phylogenetic analyses showed stable topology that comprised three monophyletic clades: (i) B. amyloliquefaciens; (ii) B. siamensis; and (iii) B. velezensis. Phylogenies derived by comparison of the gyrB, rpoB, trpB, recA, and cheA with the 16S rRNA gene-derived phylogeny was significant as evaluated by the likelihood ratio test. The trpB, rpoB, and trpB gene-derived phylogenies provide a tool for speciation within the operational group B. amyloliquefaciens.
