In total, 1,282 bacterial 16S rRNA gene clones and 722 archaeal clones were analyzed, and their identities were determined by phylogenetic analyses. Overall, clones belonging to the bacterial phyla Proteobacteria (the class Deltaproteobacteria in particular), Firmicutes, Spirochaetes, and Bacteroidetes were observed in abundance within the bacterial clone libraries examined, indicating common bacte- rial denominators in such treatment systems. Within the domain Archaea, clones affiliated with the classes Methano- microbia and Methanobacteria were found to be abundant in the archaeal libraries. In relation to features of reactor performance (such as chemical oxygen demand removal, fatty acid accumulation, and sludge bulking), possible representative phylotypes likely to be associated with process failures, such as sludge bulking and the accumulation of propionate, were found in comparative analyses of the distribution of phylotypes in the sludge libraries.

Strain CAU 1319T grew optimally at 30 C and at pH 7.5 in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence, revealed that strain CAU 1319T belongs to the genus Tessaracoccus, and is closely related to Tessaracoccus lapidicaptus IPBSL-7T (similarity 97.69 %), Tessaracoccus bendigoensis Ben 106T (similarity 95.64 %) and Tessaracoccus T T flavescens SST-39 (similarity 95.84 %). Strain CAU 1319 had LL-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, MK-9 (H4) as the predominant menaquinone, and anteiso-C15 : 0 as the major fatty acid. The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, two unidentified aminolipids, three unidentified phospholipids and one unidentified glycolipid. Predominant polyamines were spermine and spermidine. The DNA–DNA hybridization value between strain CAU 1319T and T. lapidicaptus IPBSL-7T was 24 %±0.2. The DNA G+C content of the novel strain was 69.5 mol %. On the basis of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic properties, as well as phylogenetic relatedness, strain CAU 1319Tshould be classified as a novel species of the genus Tessaracoccus, for which the name Tessaracoccus arenae sp.

Abstract: Maize forms the basis of Mexican food. As a result, approximately six million tons of corncob are produced each year, which represents an environmental issue, as well as a potential feedstock for biogas production. This research aimed to analyze the taxonomic and functional shift in the microbiome of the fermenters using a whole metagenome shotgun approach. Two strategies were used to understand the microbial community at the beginning and the end of anaerobic digestion: (i) phylogenetic analysis to infer the presence and coverage of clade-specific markers to assign taxonomy and (ii) the recovery of the individual genomes from the samples using the binning of the assembled scaffolds. The results showed that anaerobic digestion brought some noticeable changes and the main microbial community was composed of Corynebacterium variable, Desulfovibrio desulfuricans, Vibrio furnissii, Shewanella spp., Actinoplanes spp., Pseudoxanthomonas spp., Saccharomonospora azurea, Citation: Breton-Deval, L.; Agromyces spp., Serinicoccus spp., Cellulomonas spp., Pseudonocardia spp., Rhodococcus rhodochrous, Salinas-Peralta, I.; Alarcón Aguirre, Sphingobacterium spp.

On the basis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain JM-601T was shown to be most closely related to Nocardioides alpinus (98.3 %), and Nocardioides ganghwensis (98.0 %). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to all other species of the genus Nocardioides was j98.0 %. The diagnostic diamino acid of the peptidoglycan was LL-diaminopimelic acid. The major T quinone of strain JM-601 was menaquinone MK-8(H4). The polar lipid profile revealed the major components diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylcholine and an unidentified phospholipid. The polyamine pattern contained predominantly spermine and moderate amounts of spermidine. In the fatty acid profile, iso-C16 : 0,C17 : 1v8c and 10-methyl C17 : 0 were present in major amounts. All these data support the allocation of the strain to the genus Nocardioides. The results of physiological and biochemical characterization allow in addition a phenotypic differentiation of strain JM-601T from N.

April 2010 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly and most importantly, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr Paul Meyers. I have been in his lab since my Honours year, and he has always been a constant source of guidance, help and encouragement during all my years at UCT. His serious discussion of project related matters and also his lighter side and sense of humour have made the work that I have done a growing and learning experience, but also one that has been really enjoyable. I look up to him as a role model and mentor and acknowledge his contribution to making me the best possible researcher that I can be. Thank-you to all the members of Lab 202, past and present (especially to Gareth Everest – who was with me from the start), for all their help and advice and for making the lab a home away from home and generally a great place to work. I would also like to thank Di James and Bruna Galvão for all their help with the vast quantities of sequencing done during this project, and Dr Bronwyn Kirby for her help with the statistical analyses. Also, I must acknowledge Miranda Waldron and Mohammed Jaffer of the Electron Microsope Unit at the University of Cape Town for their help with scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy related matters, respectively.
