The transportation, chemical and many other industry sectors are largely relying on petroleum and fossil fuels as a primary source of energy. In 2015, fossil fuels comprised of oil (31.7%), coal (28.1%) and natural gas (21.6%) contributed for more than 80% of the total energy supply (13,647 Mt) (IEA, 2017). The rate at which worldwide fossil fuels are consumed is increasing due to world's population increase and the rise in living standards in parts of the world that had consumed very little energy in the past. Fossil fuel reserves are limited, and exploitation will become expensive. Besides, consumption of fossil fuels results in pollution and carbon dioxide formation, which contributes to global warming. Therefore, the search for other energy sources such as natural gas, wind, nuclear and renewable organics is essential to guarantee energy supply. Current bio-based economy prospective Fossil reserves are also important as chemicals precursors, including building blocks for the chemical industry. Hence, chemical technologies based on fossil (petroleum) resources are currently being replaced by green technologies that make use of alternative biobased resources, in the so called biorefinery concept. This is often relying on microbial fermentation and when compared to chemical refinery processes, it is more environmental friendly and more sustainable (less pollution and no net CO2 emission to the atmosphere). In Table 1 the chemical and the bio-fermentation routes are compared. One of the guideline principles of green chemistry defined by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is promoting the use of renewable feedstocks (http://www.epa.gov/) (Fiorentino and Ripa, 2017). 8 General introduction and thesis outline Table 1. A general comparison between chemical and bio-fermentative routes. (modified from Cukalovic and Stevens, 2008; Law and Mohammad, 2017) Parameter Chemical routes Fermentative routes Non-renewable feedstocks – Biobased feedstock – carbohydrates petrochemicals Price considerations Still cheaper than the renewable Feedstock themselves do not contribute to sources. the price as much as downstream processing Availability Availability expected to Abundant and renewable decrease in time Routes Developed routes, established Routes under constant improvement, young technologies technologies Yields and Generally high Sometimes a large number of side products, productivities diluted media, long reaction times Major disadvantages High energy demands (pressure Sensitivity of microorganisms, nutrient and temperature). Catalysts requirements, complicated product disposal issues recovery, large amounts of waste Environment effect Release CO2 that contributes to Consume CO2 via TCA cycle global warming Public awareness Decreasing popularity Increased interest in improving currently applied routes and innovations Current high costs of production prevent bio-based chemicals to be widely used. Thus, production processes from bio-based resources need to be developed and optimized. It is estimated that in 2050 approximately 30% (by weight) of chemicals will be obtained from renewable biomass (http://www.suschem.org) (Fiorentino and Ripa, 2017). Biomass is an abundant carbon-neutral renewable resource that can be used as a carbon source instead of fossil feedstocks (Fiorentino and Ripa, 2017). Production chains resulting from biomass are considered as “short-cycle carbon systems”, which are more sustainable and preferable than those resulting from fossil resources, which are considered as “long-cycle carbon systems” (Kajaste et al., 2014; Fiorentino and Ripa, 2017). The transition from fossil based to bio-based economy needs the development of innovative processes to exploit the potential of biomass (Pleissner et al., 2017). Thus, utilization of food wastes or biomass and their conversion into valuable products require more attention as the implementation of such system is not yet successfully guaranteed. However, many criteria need to be considered for 9 Chapter 1 biomass utilization in the context of efficient strategies, such as the amount of biomass available for energy and material uses and the positive environment from renewable organic materials and economic feasibility (Venus et al., 2018), as well as the factors presented in Table 1. At present, three biorefinery platforms are known; i) the sugar platform: using purified enzymes to convert biomass into five- and six-carbon sugars and then further convert these into fuels and chemicals by fermentation; ii) the syngas platform: using thermochemical systems to convert biomass into synthesis gas (a mixture of CO, H2 and CO2) and then further convert to fuels and chemicals by chemical or biological catalysts, and iii) the carboxylate platform: using hydrolysis and fermentation with often undefined mixed microorganisms to convert organic feedstocks into short chain carboxylates (Agler et al., 2011; Bosma et al., 2013). The differences between these platforms are largely based on the method of biomass conversion and the chemicals resulting from that. Methane is usually the expected product from anaerobic digestion process, however, not only methane is valuable, but the intermediate compounds as organic acids are also important. Abundance of organic waste streams On one hand, the increase of human population and the associated consumption of food and energy results in a steady increase of organic waste. Approximately one third of the global food production is discarded as waste per year according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). (http://www.unric.org/en/food-waste). Organic waste, such as food and fiber processing of fruit, vegetable waste, garbage, sewage sludge, cattle manure and/or industrial waste are abundant worldwide (Murto et al., 2004). The European Community Landfill Directive (EPA) has led to an increase in the costs of landfill and a reduction of places for landfill in many countries (EPA; http://ec.europa.eu/environment/waste/target_review.htm). Approximately 87.6 million tonnes per year of food waste are produced in Europe

Bos1 & Christina Warinner 1,2,3 Dental calculus (calcifed dental plaque) is prevalent in archaeological skeletal collections and is a rich source of oral microbiome and host-derived ancient biomolecules. Recently, it has been proposed that dental calculus may provide a more robust environment for DNA preservation than other skeletal remains, but this has not been systematically tested. In this study, shotgun-sequenced data from paired dental calculus and dentin samples from 48 globally distributed individuals are compared using a metagenomic approach. Overall, we fnd DNA from dental calculus is consistently more abundant and less contaminated than DNA from dentin. The majority of DNA in dental calculus is microbial and originates from the oral microbiome; however, a small but consistent proportion of DNA (mean 0.08 ± 0.08%, range 0.007–0.47%) derives from the host genome. Host DNA content within dentin is variable (mean 13.70 ± 18.62%, range 0.003–70.14%), and for a subset of dentin samples (15.21%), oral bacteria contribute > 20% of total DNA.

Summary Bacteria live in almost any imaginable environment, from the most extreme envi- ronments (e.g. in hydrothermal vents) to the bovine and human gastrointestinal tract. By adapting to such diverse environments, they have developed a large arsenal of enzymes involved in a wide variety of biochemical reactions. While some such enzymes support our digestion or can be used for the optimization of biotechnological processes, others may be harmful { e.g. mediating the roles of bacteria in human diseases.

  • 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.
