The microbial community associated with the hydrothermal vent was predominated by thermophilic heterotrophs such as Thermococcaceae and Anaerolineae, and the next dominant population was thermophilic sulfur oxidizers. Both aerobic and anaerobic hydrogenotrophs including methanogens were detected as minor populations. During the culture-dependent viable count analysis in this study, an Anaerolineae strain SW7T was isolated from an enrichment culture at a high dilution rate. Strain SW7T was an obligately anaerobic heterotroph that grew with fermentation and had non-motileProofs thin rods 3.5–16.5 µm in length and 0.2 µm in width constituting multicellular filaments. -

Abstract Biological wastewater treatment and an increased focus on resource recovery is fundamental for environmental protection, human health, and sustainable development. Microbial communities are responsible for these processes, but our knowledge of their diversity and function is still poor, partly due to the lack of good reference databases and comprehensive global studies. -

An Integrated Study on Microbial Community in Anaerobic Digestion Systems
An Integrated Study on Microbial Community in Anaerobic Digestion Systems DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yueh-Fen Li Graduate Program in Environmental Science The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Zhongtang Yu, Advisor Dr. Brian Ahmer Dr. Richard Dick Dr. Olli Tuovinen Copyrighted by Yueh-Fen Li 2013 Abstract Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an attractive microbiological technology for both waste treatment and energy production. Microorganisms are the driving force for the whole transformation process in anaerobic digesters. However, the microbial community underpinning the AD process remains poorly understood, especially with respect to community composition and dynamics in response to variations in feedstocks and operations. The overall objective was to better understand the microbiology driving anaerobic digestion processes by systematically investigating the diversity, composition and succession of microbial communities, both bacterial and archaeal, in anaerobic digesters of different designs, fed different feedstocks, and operated under different conditions. The first two studies focused on propionate-degrading bacteria with an emphasis on syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria. Propionate is one of the most important intermediates and has great influence on AD stability in AD systems because it is inhibitory to methanogens and it can only be metabolized through syntrophic propionate- oxidizing acetogenesis under methanogenic conditions. In the first study (chapter 3), primers specific to the propionate-CoA transferase gene (pct) were designed and used to construct clone libraries, which were sequenced and analyzed to investigate the diversity and distribution of propionate-utilizing bacteria present in the granular and the liquid portions of samples collected from four digesters of different designs, fed different ii feedstocks, and operated at different temperatures. -

For this, large- volume (~50 m3) mesocosms were deployed in the New Caledonia lagoon and were intentionally fertilized with dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) to stimulate N2 fixation. This study examined the temporal dynamics of the prokaryotic community together with the 30 evolution of biogeochemical parameters for 23 consecutive days in one of these mesocosms (M1) and in the Nouméa lagoon using MiSeq 16S rRNA gene sequencing and flow cytometry. Combining these methods allowed for inference of absolute cell numbers from 16S data. We observed clear successions within M1, some of which were not mirrored in the lagoon. -

Taxonomic Precision of Different Hypervariable Regions of 16S Rrna Gene and Annotation Methods for Functional Bacterial Groups in Biological Wastewater Treatment
Taxonomic Precision of Different Hypervariable Regions of 16S rRNA Gene and Annotation Methods for Functional Bacterial Groups in Biological Wastewater Treatment Feng Guo, Feng Ju, Lin Cai, Tong Zhang* Environmental Biotechnology Laboratory, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China Abstract High throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene leads us into a deeper understanding on bacterial diversity for complex environmental samples, but introduces blurring due to the relatively low taxonomic capability of short read. For wastewater treatment plant, only those functional bacterial genera categorized as nutrient remediators, bulk/foaming species, and potential pathogens are significant to biological wastewater treatment and environmental impacts. Precise taxonomic assignment of these bacteria at least at genus level is important for microbial ecological research and routine wastewater treatment monitoring. Therefore, the focus of this study was to evaluate the taxonomic precisions of different ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene hypervariable regions generated from a mix activated sludge sample. In addition, three commonly used classification methods including RDP Classifier, BLAST-based best-hit annotation, and the lowest common ancestor annotation by MEGAN were evaluated by comparing their consistency. Under an unsupervised way, analysis of consistency among different classification methods suggests there are no hypervariable regions with good taxonomic coverage for all genera. Taxonomic assignment based on certain regions of the 16S rRNA genes, e.g. the V1&V2 regions – provide fairly consistent taxonomic assignment for a relatively wide range of genera. Hence, it is recommended to use these regions for studying functional groups in activated sludge. Moreover, the inconsistency among methods also demonstrated that a specific method might not be suitable for identification of some bacterial genera using certain 16S rRNA gene regions. -

Blue Marble Space Institute of Science, Seattle, WA, USA Abstract: Biological methane cycling plays an important role in Earth’s climate and the global carbon cycle, with biological methane oxidation (methanotrophy) modulating methane release from numerous environments including soils, sediments, and water columns. Methanotrophy is typically coupled to aerobic respiration or anaerobically via the reduction of sulfate, nitrate, or metal oxides, and while the possibility of coupling methane oxidation to phototrophy (photomethanotrophy) has been proposed, no organism has ever been described that is capable of this metabolism. -
