  • Massilia Umbonata Sp. Nov., Able to Accumulate Poly-B-Hydroxybutyrate, Isolated from a Sewage Sludge Compost–Soil Microcosm
    International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (2014), 64, 131–137 DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.049874-0 Massilia umbonata sp. nov., able to accumulate poly-b-hydroxybutyrate, isolated from a sewage sludge compost–soil microcosm Marina Rodrı´guez-Dı´az,1,23 Federico Cerrone,33 Mar Sa´nchez-Peinado,3 Lucı´a SantaCruz-Calvo,3 Clementina Pozo1,3 and Jesu´s Gonza´lez Lo´pez1,3 Correspondence 1Department of Microbiology, University of Granada, Granada, Spain Clementina Pozo 2Max-Planck-Institut fu¨r Marine Mikrobiologie, Celsiusstrasse 1, 28359 Bremen, Germany [email protected] 3Water Research Institute, University of Granada, Granada, Spain A bacterial strain, designated strain LP01T, was isolated from a laboratory-scale microcosm packed with a mixture of soil and sewage sludge compost designed to study the evolution of microbial biodiversity over time. The bacterial strain was selected for its potential ability to store polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) as intracellular granules. The cells were aerobic, Gram-stain- negative, non-endospore-forming motile rods. Phylogenetically, the strain was classified within the genus Massilia, as its 16S rRNA gene sequence had similarity of 99.2 % with respect to those of Massilia albidiflava DSM 17472T and M. lutea DSM 17473T. DNA–DNA hybridization showed low relatedness of strain LP01T to the type strains of other, phylogenetically related species of the genus Massilia. It contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1v7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH) as the major fatty acid(s). It was found to contain small amounts of the fatty acids C18 : 0 and C14 : 0 2-OH, a feature that served to distinguish it from its closest phylogenetic relatives within the genus Massilia.

Cells of this strain were Gram- negative, motile and rod-shaped. The strain had ubiquinone Q-8 as the predominant respiratory quinone, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol as the major polar lipids and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1v7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), C16 : 0 and C18 : 1v7c as the major fatty acids. The G+C content was 65.9 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain TS3T was most closely related to Massilia niastensis 5516S-1T (98.5 %), Massilia consociata CCUG 58010T (97.6 %), Massilia aerilata 5516S-11T (97.4 %) and Massilia varians CCUG 35299T (97.2 %). DNA–DNA hybridization revealed low relatedness between strain TS3T and M. niastensis KACC 12599T (36.5 %), M. consociata CCUG 58010T (27.1 %), M. aerilata KACC 12505T (22.7 %) and M. varians CCUG 35299T (46.5 %). On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics, strain TS3T belongs to the genus Massilia, but is clearly differentiated from other members of the genus.

  • Predator to Prey to Poop: Bats As Microbial Hosts and Insectivorous Hunters
    Predator to Prey to Poop: Bats as Microbial Hosts and Insectivorous Hunters A Thesis SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Miranda Galey IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE Dr. Ron Moen, Dr. Jessica R. Sieber September 2020 Copyright © Miranda Galey 2020 Abstract Bat fecal samples are a rich source of ecological data for bat biologists, entomologists, and microbiologists. Feces collected from individual bats can be used to profile the gut microbiome using microbial DNA and to understand bat foraging strategies using arthropod DNA. We used eDNA collected from bat fecal samples to better understand bats as predators in the context of their unique gut physiology. We used high through- put sequencing of the COI gene and 16S rRNA gene to determine the diet composition and gut microbiome composition of three bat species in Minnesota: Eptesicus fuscus, Myotis lucifugus and M. septentrionalis. In our analysis of insect prey, we found that E. fuscus consistently foraged for a higher diversity of beetle species compared to other insects. We found that the proportional frequency of tympanate samples from M. septentrionalis and M. lucifugus was similar, while M. septentrionalis consistently preyed more often upon non-flying species. We used the same set of COI sequences to determine presence of pest species, rare species, and insects not previously observed in Minnesota. We were able to combine precise arthropod identification and the for- aging areas of individually sampled bats to observe possible range expansion of some insects. The taxonomic composition of the bat gut microbiome in all three species was found to be consistent with the composition of a mammalian small intestine.

The 16S rRNA gene sequence of NS9T identified Massilia haematophila CCUG 38318T, M. niastensis 5516S-1T (both 97.7 % similarity), M. aerilata 5516S-11T (97.4 %) and M. tieshanensis TS3T (97.4 %) as the next closest relatives. In partial gyrB and lepA sequences, NS9T shared the highest similarities with M. haematophila CCUG 38318T (94.5 %) and M. aerilata 5516-11T (94.3 %), respectively. These sequence data demonstrate the affiliation of NS9T to the genus Massilia. The detection of the predominant ubiquinone Q-8, a polar lipid profile consisting of the major compounds diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol and a polyamine pattern containing 2- hydroxyputrescine and putrescine were in agreement with the assignment of strain NS9T to the genus Massilia.

  • The Microbial Ecology and Horticultural Sustainability of Organically and Conventionally Managed Apples
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE MICROBIAL ECOLOGY AND HORTICULTURAL SUSTAINABILITY OF ORGANICALLY AND CONVENTIONALLY MANAGED APPLES. Andrea R. Ottesen, PhD, 2008 Directed By: Professor, Dr. Christopher S. Walsh, Plant Sciences and Landscape Architecture Objectives Organically and conventionally managed apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh) were evaluated for three growing seasons (2005-2007) to examine the impact of organic and conventional pesticide applications on the microbial ecology of phyllosphere and soil microflora. An important objective was to establish if organic or conventional selection pressures contribute to an increased presence of enteric pathogens in phyllosphere microflora. The horticultural and economic sustainability of the organic crop was also compared to the conventional crop with regard to fruit yield and input costs. Methods Microbial populations from phyllosphere and soil environments of apple trees were evaluated using clone libraries of 16S rRNA gene fragments. Clones were sequenced and software was used to assess diversity indices, identify shared similarities and compute statistical differences between communities. These measurements were subsequently used to examine treatment effects on the microbial libraries. Phyllosphere Results Eight bacterial phyla and 14 classes were found in this environment. A statistically significant difference between organically and conventionally managed phyllosphere bacterial microbial communities was observed at four of six sampling time points. Unique phylotypes were found associated with each management treatment but no increased human health risk could be associated with either treatment with regard to enteric pathogens. Soil Results Seventeen bacterial phyla spanning twenty-two classes, and two archaeal phyla spanning eight classes, were seen in the 16S rRNA gene libraries of organic and conventional soil samples.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. An analysis of a culturable corrosive bacterial community in water samples from a cooling tower was performed using traditional cultivation techniques and its identification based on 16S rRNA gene sequence. Seven aerobic bacterial species were identified: Pseudomonas putida ARTYP1, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ARTYP2, Massilia timonae ARTYP3, Massilia albidiflava ARTYP4, Pseudomonas mosselii ARTYP5, Massilia sp. ARTYP6, and Pseudomonas sp. ARTYP7. Although some of these species have commonly been observed and reported in biocorrosion studies, the genus Massilia is identified for the first time in water from a cooling tower. The biocorrosion behaviour of copper metal by the new species Massilia timonae ARTYP3 was selected for further investigation using a weight loss method, as well as electrochemical and surface analysis techniques (SEM, AFM, and FTIR).
