Single Amplified Genomes of Bacteroidetes INTRODUCTION The genus Kordia (Bacteroidetes, Flavobacteriaceae) contains representatives with isolation sources suggesting different The phylum Bacteroidetes is the third most abundant group of lifestyles and habitats: (i) marine surface seawater for Kordia bacteria in the oceans (Kirchman, 2002) but has been poorly antarctica (Baek et al., 2013), K. aquimaris (Hameed et al., 2013), studied at the species level compared to the two other main and K. algicida (Sohn et al., 2004), (ii) surface freshwater for marine microbial phyla, i.e., Proteobacteria and Cyanobacteria. K. zhangzhouensis (Lai et al., 2015), (iii) the interphase between Bacteroidetes is a cosmopolitan phylum that typically constitutes the ocean and a freshwater spring for K. jejudonensis (Park et al., between 4 and 22% of marine bacterioplankton cells (Glöckner 2014), (iv) the surface of the green alga Ulva sp. for K. ulvae (Qi et al., 1999; Cottrell and Kirchman, 2000; Alonso-Sáez et al., et al., 2016) or (v) the digestive tract of a marine polychaete for 2007; Ruiz-González et al., 2012; Lefort and Gasol, 2013; Acinas K. periserrulae (Choi et al., 2011). et al., 2014). The relative abundance of Bacteroidetes can reach Here we report the first MLSA analysis of the genus up to 53% and it often correlates with phytoplankton blooms Kordia, performed with 98 Single Amplified Genomes (SAGs) (Abell and Bowman, 2005; Fandino et al., 2005). Bacteroidetes from the genus Kordia that were retrieved from a seawater are proficient at the degradation of particulate organic matter sample from the North Indian Ocean, a location subjected (POM) (Cottrell and Kirchman, 2000; Gómez-Pereira et al., 2012; to seasonal monsoon winds and coastal upwelling events as Fernández-Gómez et al., 2013; Swan et al., 2013) and present well as open ocean oligotrophy. As a result, the microbial a generally high growth rate when substrate is available (e.g., community structure varies and large phytoplankton blooms are following phytoplankton blooms) (Kirchman, 2002; Ferrera et al., common, especially those formed by diatoms (Landry et al., 2011; Buchan et al., 2014). Some representatives contain the gene 1998). One characteristic feature of the North Indian Ocean coding for the light-dependent proton-pump proteorhodopsin, is the marked Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ) layered in the that has been shown to stimulate bacterial growth or work subsurface of the upwelling regions (Roullier et al., 2014). Even as a source of additional energy in the presence of light in though there have been studies of the bacterial community some strains (Gómez-Consarnau et al., 2007; Stepanauskas and composition of the Indian Ocean seawater (Sunagawa et al., Sieracki, 2007; González et al., 2008; Woyke et al., 2009; Martínez- 2015; Wang et al., 2016) and deep-sea sediments (Wu et al., García et al., 2012). Although Bacteroidetes can be found in the 2011; Khandeparker et al., 2014), the diversity and genomics free-living plankton size fraction, they seem to be predominantly of the Bacteroidetes populations remain poorly characterized particle-attached (DeLong et al., 1993; Schattenhofer et al., in this area. This is then a good opportunity to analyze 2009; Crespo et al., 2013; Díez-Vives et al., 2014; Salazar et al., whether micro-diversity exists in a particular Bacteroidetes 2015). taxon dominating after the phytoplankton bloom event. We Population genetics studies of marine Bacteroidetes are scarce, used the well-conserved ribosomal RNA genes, the fast- and have been generally conducted using very small populations evolving internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and the beta subunit of isolates or comparing several distant species (Fernández- DNA-directed RNA polymerase rpoB.

Received: 2019.03.20; Accepted: 2019.04.18; Published: 2019.05.09 Abstract Initial efforts to sequence the genome of the marine diatom Skeletonema marinoi were hampered by the presence of genetic material from bacteria, and there was sufficient material from some of these bacteria to enable the assembly of full chromosomes. Here, we report the genome of strain SMS9, one such bacterial species identified in a non-axenic culture of S. marinoi strain ST54. Its 5,482,391 bp circular chromosome contains 4,641 CDSs, and has a G+C content of 35.6%. Based on 16S rRNA comparison, phylotaxonomic analysis, and the genome similarity metrics dDDH and OrthoANI, we place this strain in the genus Kordia, and to the best of our knowledge, this is the first Kordia species to be initially described from European waters.

  • Genome Characteristics of Kordia Antarctica IMCC3317T And
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genome characteristics of Kordia antarctica IMCC3317T and comparative genome analysis of the genus Kordia Yeonjung Lim1, Ilnam Kang2* & Jang‑Cheon Cho1* The genus Kordia is one of many genera afliated with the family Flavobacteriaceae of the phylum Bacteroidetes, well known for its degradation of high molecular weight organic matters. The genus Kordia currently comprises eight species, type strains of which have been isolated from a diverse range of marine environments. As of this report, four genome sequences have been submitted for cultured strains of Kordia, but none are complete nor have they been analyzed comprehensively. In this study, we report the complete genome of Kordia antarctica IMCC3317T, isolated from coastal seawater of the Antarctic Peninsula. The complete genome of IMCC3317T consists of a single circular chromosome with 5.5 Mbp and a 33.2 mol% of G+C DNA content. The IMCC3317T genome showed features typical of chemoheterotrophic marine bacteria and similar to other Kordia genomes, such as complete gene sets for the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas glycolysis pathway, tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The genome also encoded many carbohydrate-active enzymes, some of which were clustered into approximately seven polysaccharide utilization loci, thereby demonstrating the potential for polysaccharide utilization. Finally, a nosZ gene encoding nitrous oxide reductase, an T enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of N2O to ­N2 gas, was also unique to the IMCC3317 genome. Te phylum Bacteroidetes is among the most abundant phyla in the ocean, accounting for an average of approxi- mately 10% of marine surface bacterioplankton cells1,2. Marine Bacteroidetes specializes in the utilization of particulate and high molecular weight organic matter predominately from micro- or macroalgae3, and many studies have shown that Bacteroidetes increases in abundance during phytoplankton blooms in coastal waters, occupying more than 50% of the bacterial community at certain times4,5.
