  • Lifestyle Preferences Drive the Structure and Diversity of Bacterial and Archaeal Communities in a Small Riverine Reservoir
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Lifestyle preferences drive the structure and diversity of bacterial and archaeal communities in a small riverine reservoir Carles Borrego1,2, Sergi Sabater1,3* & Lorenzo Proia1,4 Spatial heterogeneity along river networks is interrupted by dams, afecting the transport, processing, and storage of organic matter, as well as the distribution of biota. We here investigated the structure of planktonic (free-living, FL), particle-attached (PA) and sediment-associated (SD) bacterial and archaeal communities within a small reservoir. We combined targeted-amplicon sequencing of bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA genes in the DNA and RNA community fractions from FL, PA and SD, followed by imputed functional metagenomics, in order to unveil diferences in their potential metabolic capabilities within the reservoir (tail, mid, and dam sections) and lifestyles (FL, PA, SD). Both bacterial and archaeal communities were structured according to their life-style preferences rather than to their location in the reservoir. Bacterial communities were richer and more diverse when attached to particles or inhabiting the sediment, while Archaea showed an opposing trend. Diferences between PA and FL bacterial communities were consistent at functional level, the PA community showing higher potential capacity to degrade complex carbohydrates, aromatic compounds, and proteinaceous materials. Our results stressed that particle-attached prokaryotes were phylogenetically and metabolically distinct from their free-living counterparts, and that performed as hotspots for organic matter processing within the small reservoir. Spatial heterogeneity of river networks results from the sequence of lotic segments—which promote the transport and quick transformation of materials—and lentic segments such as large pools and wetlands—which mostly contribute to the process and storage of organic matter 1,2.

  • Aquirufa Antheringensis Gen. Nov., Sp. Nov. and Aquirufa Nivalisilvae Sp
    TAXONOMIC DESCRIPTION Pitt et al., Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2019;69:2739–2749 DOI 10.1099/ijsem.0.003554 Aquirufa antheringensis gen. nov., sp. nov. and Aquirufa nivalisilvae sp. nov., representing a new genus of widespread freshwater bacteria Alexandra Pitt,* Johanna Schmidt, Ulrike Koll and Martin W. Hahn Abstract Three bacterial strains, 30S-ANTBAC, 103A-SOEBACH and 59G- WUEMPEL, were isolated from two small freshwater creeks and an intermittent pond near Salzburg, Austria. Phylogenetic reconstructions with 16S rRNA gene sequences and, genome based, with amino acid sequences obtained from 119 single copy genes showed that the three strains represent a new genus of the family Cytophagaceae within a clade formed by the genera Pseudarcicella, Arcicella and Flectobacillus. BLAST searches suggested that the new genus comprises widespread freshwater bacteria. Phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genomic traits were investigated. Cells were rod shaped and were able to glide on soft agar. All strains grew chemoorganotrophically and aerobically, were able to assimilate pectin and showed an intense red pigmentation putatively due to various carotenoids. Two strains possessed genes putatively encoding proteorhodopsin and retinal biosynthesis. Genome sequencing revealed genome sizes between 2.5 and 3.1 Mbp and G+C contents between 38.0 and 42.7 mol%. For the new genus we propose the name Aquirufa gen. nov. Pairwise-determined whole-genome average nucleotide identity values suggested that the three strains represent two new species within the new genus for which we propose the names Aquirufa antheringensis sp. nov. for strain 30S-ANTBACT (=JCM 32977T =LMG 31079T=DSM 108553T) as type species of the genus, to which also belongs strain 103A-SOEBACH (=DSM 108555=LMG 31082) and Aquirufa nivalisilvae sp.

These bacteria comprise ,1% to 70% (on average about 20%) of total bacterioplankton cells in various freshwater habitats. The ubiquity of this taxon was recently explained by intra-taxon ecological diversification, i.e. specialization of lineages to specific environmental conditions; however, details on specific adaptations are not known. Here we investigated by means of genomic and experimental analyses the ecological adaptation of a persistent population dwelling in a small acidic pond. Findings: The investigated population (F10 lineage) contributed on average 11% to total bacterioplankton in the pond during the vegetation periods (ice-free period, usually May to November). Only a low degree of genetic diversification of the population could be revealed. These bacteria are characterized by a small genome size (2.1 Mb), a relatively small number of genes involved in transduction of environmental signals, and the lack of motility and quorum sensing.

Tel: +972-2-6584951; Fax: +972-2-6584425; E-mail: [email protected] One sentence summary: The rules and the recommendations of the Prokaryotic Code allow considerable freedom to propose interesting and attractive names for newly described taxa of prokaryotes, but these opportunities are seldom used. Editor: Rich Boden ABSTRACT In recent years, names of ∼170 new genera and ∼1020 new species were added annually to the list of prokaryotic names with standing in the nomenclature. These names were formed in accordance with the Rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Most of these names are not very interesting as specific epithets and word elements from existing names are repeatedly recycled. The rules of the Code provide many opportunities to create names in far more original ways. A survey of the lists of names of genera and species of prokaryotes shows that there is no lack of interesting names.

  • Morphology, Ultrastructure, Genomics, and Phylogeny of Euplotes Vanleeuwenhoeki Sp
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Morphology, ultrastructure, genomics, and phylogeny of Euplotes vanleeuwenhoeki sp. nov. and its ultra‑reduced endosymbiont “Candidatus Pinguicoccus supinus” sp. nov. Valentina Serra1,7, Leandro Gammuto1,7, Venkatamahesh Nitla1, Michele Castelli2,3, Olivia Lanzoni1, Davide Sassera3, Claudio Bandi2, Bhagavatula Venkata Sandeep4, Franco Verni1, Letizia Modeo1,5,6* & Giulio Petroni1,5,6* Taxonomy is the science of defning and naming groups of biological organisms based on shared characteristics and, more recently, on evolutionary relationships. With the birth of novel genomics/ bioinformatics techniques and the increasing interest in microbiome studies, a further advance of taxonomic discipline appears not only possible but highly desirable. The present work proposes a new approach to modern taxonomy, consisting in the inclusion of novel descriptors in the organism characterization: (1) the presence of associated microorganisms (e.g.: symbionts, microbiome), (2) the mitochondrial genome of the host, (3) the symbiont genome. This approach aims to provide a deeper comprehension of the evolutionary/ecological dimensions of organisms since their very frst description. Particularly interesting, are those complexes formed by the host plus associated microorganisms, that in the present study we refer to as “holobionts”. We illustrate this approach through the description of the ciliate Euplotes vanleeuwenhoeki sp. nov. and its bacterial endosymbiont “Candidatus Pinguicoccus supinus” gen. nov., sp. nov. The endosymbiont possesses an extremely reduced genome (~ 163 kbp); intriguingly, this suggests a high integration between host and symbiont. Taxonomy is the science of defning and naming groups of biological organisms based on shared characteristics and, more recently, based on evolutionary relationships. Classical taxonomy was exclusively based on morpho- logical-comparative techniques requiring a very high specialization on specifc taxa.

  • A Wrapper Tool for Detecting Rnase P RNA Genes Dilmurat Yusuf1, Manja Marz2,3, Peter F Stadler1,3,4,5,6, Ivo L Hofacker1*
    Yusuf et al. BMC Genomics 2010, 11:432 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/11/432 METHODOLOGY ARTICLE Open Access Bcheck: a wrapper tool for detecting RNase P RNA genes Dilmurat Yusuf1, Manja Marz2,3, Peter F Stadler1,3,4,5,6, Ivo L Hofacker1* Abstract Background: Effective bioinformatics solutions are needed to tackle challenges posed by industrial-scale genome annotation. We present Bcheck, a wrapper tool which predicts RNase P RNA genes by combining the speed of pattern matching and sensitivity of covariance models. The core of Bcheck is a library of subfamily specific descriptor models and covariance models. Results: Scanning all microbial genomes in GenBank identifies RNase P RNA genes in 98% of 1024 microbial chromosomal sequences within just 4 hours on single CPU. Comparing to existing annotations found in 387 of the GenBank files, Bcheck predictions have more intact structure and are automatically classified by subfamily membership. For eukaryotic chromosomes Bcheck could identify the known RNase P RNA genes in 84 out of 85 metazoan genomes and 19 out of 21 fungi genomes. Bcheck predicted 37 novel eukaryotic RNase P RNA genes, 32 of which are from fungi. Gene duplication events are observed in at least 20 metazoan organisms. Scanning of meta-genomic data from the Global Ocean Sampling Expedition, comprising over 10 million sample sequences (18 Gigabases), predicted 2909 unique genes, 98% of which fall into ancestral bacteria A type of RNase P RNA and 66% of which have no close homolog to known prokaryotic RNase P RNA. Conclusions: The combination of efficient filtering by means of a descriptor-based search and subsequent construction of a high-quality gene model by means of a covariance model provides an efficient method for the detection of RNase P RNA genes in large-scale sequencing data.

The Amazon region has the largest hydrographic basin on the planet and is well known for its huge biodiversity of plants and animals. However, there is a lack of studies on aquatic microbial biodiversity in the Solimões River, one of its main water courses. To investigate the microbial biodiversity of this region, we performed 16S rRNA gene clone libraries from Solimões River and adjacent rivers and lakes. Our question was which microorganisms inhabit the different types of aquatic environments in this part of the basin, and how diversity varies among these environments (rivers and lakes).
