  • Deep Divergence and Rapid Evolutionary Rates in Gut-Associated Acetobacteraceae of Ants Bryan P
    Brown and Wernegreen BMC Microbiology (2016) 16:140 DOI 10.1186/s12866-016-0721-8 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Deep divergence and rapid evolutionary rates in gut-associated Acetobacteraceae of ants Bryan P. Brown1,2 and Jennifer J. Wernegreen1,2* Abstract Background: Symbiotic associations between gut microbiota and their animal hosts shape the evolutionary trajectories of both partners. The genomic consequences of these relationships are significantly influenced by a variety of factors, including niche localization, interaction potential, and symbiont transmission mode. In eusocial insect hosts, socially transmitted gut microbiota may represent an intermediate point between free living or environmentally acquired bacteria and those with strict host association and maternal transmission. Results: We characterized the bacterial communities associated with an abundant ant species, Camponotus chromaiodes. While many bacteria had sporadic distributions, some taxa were abundant and persistent within and across ant colonies. Specially, two Acetobacteraceae operational taxonomic units (OTUs; referred to as AAB1 and AAB2) were abundant and widespread across host samples. Dissection experiments confirmed that AAB1 and AAB2 occur in C. chromaiodes gut tracts. We explored the distribution and evolution of these Acetobacteraceae OTUs in more depth. We found that Camponotus hosts representing different species and geographical regions possess close relatives of the Acetobacteraceae OTUs detected in C. chromaiodes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that AAB1 and AAB2 join other ant associates in a monophyletic clade. This clade consists of Acetobacteraceae from three ant tribes, including a third, basal lineage associated with Attine ants. This ant-specific AAB clade exhibits a significant acceleration of substitution rates at the 16S rDNA gene and elevated AT content.

Precipitation and Particulate Matter Properties S1.1 Precipitation Categorization In this study, we have segregated our precipitation samples into four different categories, such as (1) snows, (2) hails/thunderstorms, (3) long-lasted rains, and (4) weak rains. For this categorization, we have considered both our observation-based as well as the disdrometer-assigned National Weather Service (NWS) 20 code. Initially, the precipitation samples had been assigned one of the four categories based on our manual observation. In the next step, we have used each NWS code and its occurrence in each precipitation sample to finalize the precipitation category. During this step, a precipitation sample was categorized into snow, only when we identified a snow type NWS code (Snow: S-, S, S+ and/or Snow Grains: SG). Likewise, a precipitation sample was categorized into hail/thunderstorm, only when the cumulative sum of NWS codes for hail was 25 counted more than five times (i.e., A + SP ≥ 5; where A and SP are the codes for soft hail and hail, respectively).

  • Diversity and Composition of the Skin, Blood and Gut Microbiome in Rosacea—A Systematic Review of the Literature
    microorganisms Review Diversity and Composition of the Skin, Blood and Gut Microbiome in Rosacea—A Systematic Review of the Literature Klaudia Tutka, Magdalena Zychowska˙ and Adam Reich * Department of Dermatology, Institute of Medical Sciences, Medical College of Rzeszow University, 35-055 Rzeszow, Poland; [email protected] (K.T.); [email protected] (M.Z.)˙ * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-605076722 Received: 30 August 2020; Accepted: 6 November 2020; Published: 8 November 2020 Abstract: Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder of a not fully understood pathophysiology. Microbial factors, although not precisely characterized, are speculated to contribute to the development of the condition. The aim of the current review was to summarize the rosacea-associated alterations in the skin, blood, and gut microbiome, investigated using culture-independent, metagenomic techniques. A systematic review of the PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases was performed, according to PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analyses) guidelines. Nine out of 185 papers were eligible for analysis. Skin microbiome was investigated in six studies, and in a total number of 115 rosacea patients. Blood microbiome was the subject of one piece of research, conducted in 10 patients with rosacea, and gut microbiome was studied in two papers, and in a total of 23 rosacea subjects. Although all of the studies showed significant alterations in the composition of the skin, blood, or gut microbiome in rosacea, the results were highly inconsistent, or even, in some cases, contradictory. Major limitations included the low number of participants, and different study populations (mainly Asians). Further studies are needed in order to reliably analyze the composition of microbiota in rosacea, and the potential application of microbiome modifications for the treatment of this dermatosis.

  • Roseomonas Aerofrigidensis Sp. Nov., Isolated from an Air Conditioner
    TAXONOMIC DESCRIPTION Hyeon and Jeon, Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2017;67:4039–4044 DOI 10.1099/ijsem.0.002246 Roseomonas aerofrigidensis sp. nov., isolated from an air conditioner Jong Woo Hyeon and Che Ok Jeon* Abstract A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated HC1T, was isolated from an air conditioner in South Korea. Cells were orange, non-motile cocci with oxidase- and catalase-positive activities and did not contain bacteriochlorophyll a. Growth of strain HC1T was observed at 10–45 C (optimum, 30 C), pH 4.5–9.5 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 0–3 % (w/v) NaCl T (optimum, 0 %). Strain HC1 contained summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1!7c/C18 : 1!6c), C16 : 0 and cyclo-C19 : 0!8c as the major fatty acids and ubiquinone-10 as the sole isoprenoid quinone. Phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and an unknown aminolipid were detected as the major polar lipids. The major carotenoid was hydroxyspirilloxanthin. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 70.1 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, showed that strain HC1T formed a phylogenetic lineage within the genus Roseomonas. Strain HC1T was most closely related to the type strains of Roseomonas oryzae, Roseomonas rubra, Roseomonas aestuarii and Roseomonas rhizosphaerae with 98.1, 97.9, 97.6 and 96.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, respectively, but the DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain HC1T and closely related type strains were less than 70 %. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular properties, strain HC1T represents a novel species of the genus Roseomonas, for which the name Roseomonas aerofrigidensis sp.

BMC Infectious Diseases (2019) 19:140 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-019-3774-0 CASEREPORT Open Access Roseomonas mucosa infective endocarditis in patient with systemic lupus erythematosus: case report and review of literature Shayuan Shao1, Xin Guo2, Penghao Guo3, Yingpeng Cui3 and Yili Chen3* Abstract Background: Roseomonas mucosa, as a Gram-negative coccobacilli, is an opportunistic pathogen that has rarely been reported in human infections. Here we describe a case of bacteremia in an infective endocarditis patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Case presentations: A 44-year-old female patient with SLE suffered bacteremia caused by Roseomonas mucosa complicated with infective endocarditis (IE). The patient started on treatment with piperacillin-tazobactam and levofloxacin against Roseomonas mucosa, which was switched after 4 days to meropenem and amikacin for an additional 2 weeks. She had a favorable outcome with a 6-week course of intravenous antibiotic therapy. Discussion and conclusions: Roseomonas mucosa is rarely reported in IE patients; therefore, we report the case in order to improve our ability to identify this pathogen and expand the range of known bacterial causes of infective endocarditis.

R. China, Chengdu 610041, China. Accepted 1 June, 2011 Thermophilic microbial diversity in production water from a high temperature, water-flooded petroleum reservoir of an offshore oilfield in China was characterized by enrichment and polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analysis. Six different function enrichment cultures were cultivated one year, at 75°C DGGE and sequence analyses of 16S rRNA gene fragments were used to assess the thermophilic microbial diversity. A total of 27 bacterial and 9 archaeal DGGE bands were excised and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of these sequences indicated that 21 bacterial and 7 archaeal phylotypes were affiliated with thermophilic microbe. The bacterial sequences were mainly bonged to the genera Fervidobacterium, Thermotoga, Dictyoglomus, Symbiobacterium, Moorella, Thermoanaerobacter, Desulfotomaculum, Thermosyntropha, Coprothermobacter, Caloramator, Thermacetogenium, and the archaeal phylogypes were represented in the genera Geoglobus and Thermococcus, Methanomethylovorans, Methanothermobacter Methanoculleus and Methanosaeta. So many thermophiles were detected suggesting that they might be common habitants in high-temperature petroleum reservoirs.

The notion that microbiota can upregulate PD-L1 expression in tumors to promote immune escape have been demonstrated. We hypothesized that the urinary microbiota may be involved in the recurrence and progression of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) by upregulating the PD- L1 expression. For proving this hypothesis, we rstly performed this study to characterize the potential urinary microbial community possibly associated with PD-L1 expression in male patients with NMIBC. Results The subjects (aged 43–79 years) based on their PD-L1 immunohistochemical results were divided into PD-L1-positive group (P group) and PD-L1-negative group (N group) respectively. We observed that P group exhibited higher species richness and diversity (based on Observed species and Ace index, both P < 0.05).
