To begin to tackle this problem, it will be critical to 49 not only understand the origins of this resistance but also document environmental 50 reservoirs of antibiotic resistance. In this study we investigated the possibility that both 51 colony and field caught mosquitoes could harbor antibiotic resistant bacteria. 52 Specifically, we characterized the antibiotic resistant bacterial populations from colony- 53 reared Aedes aegypti larvae and adults and two field caught mosquito species 54 Coquillettidia perturbans and Ochlerotatus canadensis. The cultured bacterial 55 populations were dominated by isolates belonging to the class Gammaproteobacteria. 56 Among the antibiotic resistant populations, we found bacteria resistant to carbenicillin, 57 kanamycin, and tetracycline, including bacteria resistant to a cocktail of all three 58 antibiotics in combination. The antibiotic resistant bacteria were numerically rare, at most 59 5% of total cell counts. Isolates were characterized by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and 60 clustering into Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs; 99% sequence identity). 27 61 antibiotic resistant OTUs were identified, although members of an OTU did not always 62 share the same resistance profile. This suggests the clustering was either not sensitive 63 enough to distinguish different bacteria taxa or different antibiotic resistant sub- 64 populations exist within an OTU. Finally, the antibiotic selection opened up a niche to 65 culture mosquito-associated fungi, and 10 fungal OTUs (28S rRNA gene sequencing) 66 were identified. Two fungal OTUs both classified to the class Microbotryomycetes were 67 commonly identified in the field-caught mosquitoes. Thus, in this study we demonstrate 68 that antibiotic resistant bacteria and certain fungi are common and conserved mosquito 2 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/670802; this version posted June 13, 2019.

Descriptive studies of the mosquito 75 microbiome suggest that the bacterial species richness of the microbiome is relatively 76 low, generally made up of 10 to 50 species [1,6]. As mosquitoes are vectors of blood 77 borne arboviruses, such as West Nile virus, dengue virus, and chikungunya virus, the 78 microbiome has received substantial research as a possible factor that could interact with 79 mosquito vector competence [7,8]. Yet, these studies are hampered by an inability to 80 systematically manipulate the microbiome. 81 The generation of axenic mosquitoes, allowing for establishing gnotobiotic hosts 82 with a controlled microbiome, has only been reported recently [9,10]. Previous studies 83 had relied on antibiotic treatment of the mosquitoes to reduce or “remove” the 84 microbiome prior to experiments [11–14]. However, studies have documented that the 85 mosquito microbiome can harbor antibiotic resistant populations [15,16] and thus 86 antibiotic treatment is more likely to induce a dysbiosis in the microbiome rather than an 87 elimination of the mosquitoes’ microbiota [12]. Furthermore, antibiotic treatment can 88 affect the host’s physiology by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative damage 89 [17,18] . In this regard, it is often difficult to distinguish the effects of reducing the 90 microbiome load via antibiotics versus potential effects of the antibiotics themselves. 91 In this study we set out to test how common antibiotic resistant bacteria are 92 among colony-reared and field-caught mosquitoes. We hypothesized that the mosquito 93 microbiome would naturally harbor antibiotic resistant bacterial populations. We further 94 predicted that the wild-caught mosquitoes would harbor larger and more diverse 4 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/670802; this version posted June 13, 2019.

Larvae from the same egg hatch were collected from rearing pans 102 with a Pasteur pipette and serially rinsed through three Petri dishes containing sterile 103 water to remove external adhering bacteria. Adult female mosquitoes were collected 24 104 hours post blood feeding (hpbf) from females with a still visible blood bolus to ensure 105 that the mosquito had blood fed, which insured the mosquitoes were in a similar 106 physiological state. 107 108 Testing colony-reared mosquitoes for antibiotic resistance genes 109 To investigate the presence of antibiotic resistance genes in the microbiome of 110 colony-reared mosquitoes we employed a quantitative PCR array. Total DNA was 111 extracted from a pool of three larvae and from the dissected midguts of three female 112 adults 24 hpbf. DNA was extracted with the DNeasy PowerSoil kit (Qiagen) using 113 standard protocols as previously described for mosquitoes [9]. The DNA was employed 114 as a template for a Qiagen 96-well Microbial DNA qPCR Array (Antibiotic Resistant 115 genes). This array detects 84 antibiotic resistant genes across multiple antibiotic classes 116 and also includes two pan bacteria and one positive PCR controls to test for the presence 117 of inhibitors and PCR efficiency. A full list of the genes detected in the assay can be 5 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/670802; this version posted June 13, 2019.

Quantitative PCR was performed on a BioRad 119 C1000 Touch Thermocycler with CFX96 Real-Time System. Thermalcycling conditions 120 consisted of 10 minutes at 95°C, followed by 40 cycles of: 15 seconds at 95°C and 2 121 minutes 60°C and a 1°C/s ramp rate (as recommended by the assay manufacture) with 122 FAM fluorophore detection. Values for cycle quantification value (Cq) were recorded for 123 each well and positive detections were based on the manufacture’s recommendations. 124 125 Field collection of mosquitoes 126 Mosquito trapping was conducted as described previously [19]. Briefly, CO2 (dry 127 ice) baited CDC miniature light traps equipped with aluminum domes were collected 128 from six sites around Connecticut (Fig. 1). Traps were placed in the field in the afternoon, 129 operated overnight, and retrieved the following morning. Adult mosquitoes were 130 transported alive to the laboratory each morning in an ice chest lined with cool packs. 131 Mosquitoes were immobilized with dry ice and transferred to chill tables where they were 132 identified to species with the aid of a stereo microscope (90X) based on morphological 133 characters. Individual females of two species, Coquillettidia perturbans and Ochlerotatus 134 canadensis were identified and separated with sterile tweezers and processed for bacterial 135 isolation immediately after collection from the field. 136 137 Bacterial culturing and isolation. 138 In initial experiments we tested the bacterial recovery from individual colony- 139 reared and field-caught mosquitoes.

Naranjo-Ortiz1 and Toni Gabaldon´ 1,2,3∗ 1Department of Genomics and Bioinformatics, Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), The Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology, Dr. Aiguader 88, Barcelona 08003, Spain 2 Department of Experimental and Health Sciences, Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF), 08003 Barcelona, Spain 3ICREA, Pg. Lluís Companys 23, 08010 Barcelona, Spain ABSTRACT Fungi are a highly diverse group of heterotrophic eukaryotes characterized by the absence of phagotrophy and the presence of a chitinous cell wall. While unicellular fungi are far from rare, part of the evolutionary success of the group resides in their ability to grow indefinitely as a cylindrical multinucleated cell (hypha). Armed with these morphological traits and with an extremely high metabolical diversity, fungi have conquered numerous ecological niches and have shaped a whole world of interactions with other living organisms. Herein we survey the main evolutionary and ecological processes that have guided fungal diversity. We will first review the ecology and evolution of the zoosporic lineages and the process of terrestrialization, as one of the major evolutionary transitions in this kingdom. Several plausible scenarios have been proposed for fungal terrestralization and we here propose a new scenario, which considers icy environments as a transitory niche between water and emerged land. We then focus on exploring the main ecological relationships of Fungi with other organisms (other fungi, protozoans, animals and plants), as well as the origin of adaptations to certain specialized ecological niches within the group (lichens, black fungi and yeasts).

  • Microplastics Accumulate Fungal Pathogens in Terrestrial Ecosystems
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Microplastics accumulate fungal pathogens in terrestrial ecosystems Gerasimos Gkoutselis1,5, Stephan Rohrbach2,5, Janno Harjes1, Martin Obst3, Andreas Brachmann4, Marcus A. Horn2* & Gerhard Rambold1* Microplastic (MP) is a pervasive pollutant in nature that is colonised by diverse groups of microbes, including potentially pathogenic species. Fungi have been largely neglected in this context, despite their afnity for plastics and their impact as pathogens. To unravel the role of MP as a carrier of fungal pathogens in terrestrial ecosystems and the immediate human environment, epiplastic mycobiomes from municipal plastic waste from Kenya were deciphered using ITS metabarcoding as well as a comprehensive meta-analysis, and visualised via scanning electron as well as confocal laser scanning microscopy. Metagenomic and microscopic fndings provided complementary evidence that the terrestrial plastisphere is a suitable ecological niche for a variety of fungal organisms, including important animal and plant pathogens, which formed the plastisphere core mycobiome. We show that MPs serve as selective artifcial microhabitats that not only attract distinct fungal communities, but also accumulate certain opportunistic human pathogens, such as cryptococcal and Phoma-like species. Therefore, MP must be regarded a persistent reservoir and potential vector for fungal pathogens in soil environments. Given the increasing amount of plastic waste in terrestrial ecosystems worldwide, this interrelation may have severe consequences for the trans-kingdom and multi-organismal epidemiology of fungal infections on a global scale. Plastic waste, an inevitable and inadvertent marker of the Anthropocene, has become a ubiquitous pollutant in nature1. Plastics can therefore exert negative efects on biota in both, aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.

    Systema Naturae. The classification of living organisms. c Alexey B. Shipunov v. 5.601 (June 26, 2007) Preface Most of researches agree that kingdom-level classification of living things needs the special rules and principles. Two approaches are possible: (a) tree- based, Hennigian approach will look for main dichotomies inside so-called “Tree of Life”; and (b) space-based, Linnaean approach will look for the key differences inside “Natural System” multidimensional “cloud”. Despite of clear advantages of tree-like approach (easy to develop rules and algorithms; trees are self-explaining), in many cases the space-based approach is still prefer- able, because it let us to summarize any kinds of taxonomically related da- ta and to compare different classifications quite easily. This approach also lead us to four-kingdom classification, but with different groups: Monera, Protista, Vegetabilia and Animalia, which represent different steps of in- creased complexity of living things, from simple prokaryotic cell to compound Nature Precedings : doi:10.1038/npre.2007.241.2 Posted 16 Aug 2007 eukaryotic cell and further to tissue/organ cell systems.
