Background Information Phytoplasmas, formerly known as mycoplasma-like organisms (MLOs), are pleomorphic, cell wall-less bacteria with small genomes (530 to 1350 kbp) of low G + C content (23-29%). They belong to the class Mollicutes and are the putative causal agents of yellows diseases that affect at least 1,000 plant species worldwide (McCoy et al., 1989; Seemüller et al., 2002). These minute, endocellular prokaryotes colonize the phloem of their infected plant hosts as well as various tissues and organs of their respective insect vectors. Phytoplasmas are transmitted to plants during feeding activity by their vectors, primarily leafhoppers, planthoppers, and psyllids (IRPCM, 2004; Weintraub and Beanland, 2006). Although phytoplasmas cannot be routinely grown by laboratory culture in cell free media, they may be observed in infected plant or insect tissues by use of electron microscopy or detected by molecular assays incorporating antibodies or nucleic acids. Since biological and phenotypic properties in pure culture are unavailable as aids in their identification, analysis of 16S rRNA genes has been adopted instead as the major basis for phytoplasma taxonomy.

  • 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.

This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Statement of Contributions In Chapter 2, the sampling and DNA extraction and sequencing of samples (Section 2.2.1 - 2.2.2) were carried out by Dr. Aneisha Collins-Fairclough and Dr. Melessa Ellis. The work described in Section 2.2.3 Metagenomic pipeline and onwards was done by the thesis’s author. Sections 2.2.1 Sample collection – 2.2.4 16S rRNA gene community profile were previously published in Widespread antibiotic, biocide, and metal resistance in microbial communities inhabiting a municipal waste environment and anthropogenically impacted river by Aneisha M. Collins- Fairclough, Rebecca Co, Melessa C. Ellis, and Laura A. Hug. 2018. mSphere: e00346-18. The writing and analyses incorporated into this chapter are by the thesis's author. iii Abstract Cellulose is the most abundant organic compound found on earth. Cellulose’s recalcitrance to hydrolysis is a major limitation to improving the efficiency of industrial applications. The biofuel, pulp and paper, agriculture, and textile industries employ mechanical and chemical methods of breaking down cellulose.

    Analysis of Expressed Genes of the Bacterium ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma Mali’ Highlights Key Features of Virulence and Metabolism Christin Siewert1, Toni Luge2, Bojan Duduk3, Erich Seemu¨ ller4, Carmen Bu¨ ttner1, Sascha Sauer2, Michael Kube1* 1 Division Phytomedicine, Department of Crop and Animal Sciences, Humboldt-Universita¨t zu Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 2 Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin, Germany, 3 Institute of Pesticides and Environmental Protection, Belgrade, Serbia, 4 Julius Kuehn Institute, Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants, Institute for Plant Protection in Fruit Crops and Viticulture, Dossenheim, Germany Abstract ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’ is a phytopathogenic bacterium of the family Acholeplasmataceae assigned to the class Mollicutes. This causative agent of the apple proliferation colonizes in Malus domestica the sieve tubes of the plant phloem resulting in a range of symptoms such as witches’- broom formation, reduced vigor and affecting size and quality of the crop. The disease is responsible for strong economical losses in Europe. Although the genome sequence of the pathogen is available, there is only limited information on expression of selected genes and metabolic key features that have not been examined on the transcriptomic or proteomic level so far. This situation is similar to many other phytoplasmas. In the work presented here, RNA-Seq and mass spectrometry shotgun techniques were applied on tissue samples from Nicotiana occidentalis infected by ‘Ca. P. mali’ strain AT providing insights into transcriptome and proteome of the pathogen. Data analysis highlights expression of 208 genes including 14 proteins located in the terminal inverted repeats of the linear chromosome. Beside a high portion of house keeping genes, the recently discussed chaperone GroES/GroEL is expressed.

It is a medium-high temperature reservoir of fluvial face, made of a thin layer of crossed sand-mudstones, pebbled sandstones and fine sandstones. P2 represents the sample collected from Ba-51 well, which is located in Bayindulan reservoir layer of Erlian Basin, east Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is a reservoir with highly heterogeneous layers, high crude oil viscosity and low formation fluid temperature.

BMC Genomics 2014, 15:931 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/15/931 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Complete genome determination and analysis of Acholeplasma oculi strain 19L, highlighting the loss of basic genetic features in the Acholeplasmataceae Christin Siewert1, Wolfgang R Hess2, Bojan Duduk3, Bruno Huettel4, Richard Reinhardt4, Carmen Büttner1 and Michael Kube1* Abstract Background: Acholeplasma oculi belongs to the Acholeplasmataceae family, comprising the genera Acholeplasma and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma’. Acholeplasmas are ubiquitous saprophytic bacteria. Several isolates are derived from plants or animals, whereas phytoplasmas are characterised as intracellular parasitic pathogens of plant phloem and depend on insect vectors for their spread. The complete genome sequences for eight strains of this family have been resolved so far, all of which were determined depending on clone-based sequencing. Results: The A. oculi strain 19L chromosome was sequenced using two independent approaches. The first approach comprised sequencing by synthesis (Illumina) in combination with Sanger sequencing, while single molecule real time sequencing (PacBio) was used in the second. The genome was determined to be 1,587,120 bp in size. Sequencing by synthesis resulted in six large genome fragments, while thesinglemoleculerealtimesequencingapproachyieldedone circular chromosome sequence. High-quality sequences were obtained by both strategies differing in six positions, which are interpreted as reliable variations present in the culture population. Our genome analysis revealed 1,471 protein-coding + genes and highlighted the absence of the F1FO-type Na ATPase system and GroEL/ES chaperone. Comparison of the four available Acholeplasma sequences revealed a core-genome encoding 703 proteins and a pan-genome of 2,867 proteins.
