These isolates were found to be aerobic, Gram-negative, motile with one polar flagellum, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped. Phenotypic and fatty acid data supported the affiliation of JS12-10T and JS14-6T to the genus Dyella. However, chemotaxonomic data and DNA–DNA relatedness values allowed differentiation of these strains from other Dyella species with validly published names. Strains JS12-10T and JS14-6T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Dyella ginsengisoli Gsoil 3046T (98.4 %) and Dyella japonica XD53T (97.9 %), respectively, and the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between them was 97.1 %. DNA–DNA hybridization values between the novel isolates and strains of other recognized Dyella species were 29–38 %. Therefore, strains JS12- 10T and JS14-6T represent two novel species of the genus Dyella, for which the names Dyella soli sp. nov. (type strain JS12-10T 5KACC 12747T 5JCM 15423T) and Dyella terrae sp. nov. (type strain JS14-6T 5KACC 12748T 5JCM 15424T) are proposed. Xie & Yokota (2005) isolated three bacterial strains from the genus Dyella includes five species, namely D. japonica garden soil and assigned them to a novel genus, Dyella, (Xie & Yokota, 2005), D. koreensis (An et al., 2005), D. with Dyella japonica as the type species.

  • Seed Interior Microbiome of Rice Genotypes Indigenous to Three
    Raj et al. BMC Genomics (2019) 20:924 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-019-6334-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Seed interior microbiome of rice genotypes indigenous to three agroecosystems of Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot Garima Raj1*, Mohammad Shadab1, Sujata Deka1, Manashi Das1, Jilmil Baruah1, Rupjyoti Bharali2 and Narayan C. Talukdar1* Abstract Background: Seeds of plants are a confirmation of their next generation and come associated with a unique microbia community. Vertical transmission of this microbiota signifies the importance of these organisms for a healthy seedling and thus a healthier next generation for both symbionts. Seed endophytic bacterial community composition is guided by plant genotype and many environmental factors. In north-east India, within a narrow geographical region, several indigenous rice genotypes are cultivated across broad agroecosystems having standing water in fields ranging from 0-2 m during their peak growth stage. Here we tried to trap the effect of rice genotypes and agroecosystems where they are cultivated on the rice seed microbiota. We used culturable and metagenomics approaches to explore the seed endophytic bacterial diversity of seven rice genotypes (8 replicate hills) grown across three agroecosystems. Results: From seven growth media, 16 different species of culturable EB were isolated. A predictive metabolic pathway analysis of the EB showed the presence of many plant growth promoting traits such as siroheme synthesis, nitrate reduction, phosphate acquisition, etc. Vitamin B12 biosynthesis restricted to bacteria and archaea; pathways were also detected in the EB of two landraces. Analysis of 522,134 filtered metagenomic sequencing reads obtained from seed samples (n=56) gave 4061 OTUs.

However, the diversity of bacteria associated with the roots of terrestrial orchids colonizing Andean ecosystems is limited. This study identifies and examines the capabilities of endophytic bacteria associated with peloton-containing roots of six terrestrial orchid species from southern Chile. To achieve our goals, we placed superficially disinfected root fragments harboring pelotons on oatmeal agar (OMA) with no antibiotic addition and cultured them until the bacteria appeared. Subsequently, they were purified and identified using molecular tools and examined for plant growth metabolites production and antifungal activity. In total, 168 bacterial strains were isolated and assigned to 8 OTUs. The orders Pseudomonadales, Burkholderiales, and Xanthomonadales of phylum Proteobacteria were the most frequent. The orders Bacillales and Flavobacteriales of the phylla Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were also obtained.

Read Full License Page 1/30 Abstract In 2017, the 560-ha area of hybrid poplar plantation in northern Poland showed symptoms of tree decline. Leaves appeared smaller, turned yellow-brown, and were shed prematurely. Twigs and smaller branches died. Bark was sunken and discolored, often loosened and split. Trunks decayed from the base. Phloem and xylem showed brown necrosis. Ten per cent of trees died in 1–2 months. None of these symptoms was typical for known poplar diseases. Bacteria in soil and the necrotic base of poplar trunk were analysed with Illumina sequencing. Soil and wood were colonized by at least 615 and 249 taxa. The majority of bacteria were common to soil and wood. The most common taxa in soil were: Acidobacteria (14.757%), Actinobacteria (14.583%), Proteobacteria (36.872) with Betaproteobacteria (6.516%), Burkholderiales (6.102%), Comamonadaceae (2.786%), and Verrucomicrobia (5.307%).The most common taxa in wood were: Bacteroidetes (22.722%) including Chryseobacterium (5.074%), Flavobacteriales (10.873%), Sphingobacteriales (9.396%) with Pedobacter cryoconitis (7.306%), Proteobacteria (73.785%) with Enterobacteriales (33.247%) including Serratia (15.303%) and Sodalis (6.524%), Pseudomonadales (9.829%) including Pseudomonas (9.017%), Rhizobiales (6.826%), Sphingomonadales (5.646%), and Xanthomonadales (11.194%).

  • Phylogenomics Insights Into Order and Families of Lysobacterales
    SHORT COMMUNICATION Kumar et al., Access Microbiology 2019;1 DOI 10.1099/acmi.0.000015 Phylogenomics insights into order and families of Lysobacterales Sanjeet Kumar†, Kanika Bansal, Prashant P. Patil‡ and Prabhu B. Patil* Abstract Order Lysobacterales (earlier known Xanthomonadales) is a taxonomically complex group of a large number of gamma-pro- teobacteria classified in two different families, namelyLysobacteraceae and Rhodanobacteraceae. Current taxonomy is largely based on classical approaches and is devoid of whole-genome information-based analysis. In the present study, we have taken all classified and poorly described species belonging to the order Lysobacterales to perform a phylogenetic analysis based on the 16 S rRNA sequence. Moreover, to obtain robust phylogeny, we have generated whole-genome sequencing data of six type species namely Metallibacterium scheffleri, Panacagrimonas perspica, Thermomonas haemolytica, Fulvimonas soli, Pseudoful- vimonas gallinarii and Rhodanobacter lindaniclasticus of the families Lysobacteraceae and Rhodanobacteraceae. Interestingly, whole-genome-based phylogenetic analysis revealed unusual positioning of the type species Pseudofulvimonas, Panacagri- monas, Metallibacterium and Aquimonas at family level. Whole-genome-based phylogeny involving 92 type strains resolved the taxonomic positioning by reshuffling the genus across families Lysobacteraceae and Rhodanobacteraceae. The present study reveals the need and scope for genome-based phylogenetic and comparative studies in order to address relationships of genera and species of order Lysobacterales. IMPact StatEMENT genus with unary species can serve as a reference and standard Species of order Lysobacterales have undergone several reclas- to compare later identified species of the respective genera. sifications, until today the taxonomy position of species within the order is largely devoid of whole-genome information.

    International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (2012), 62, 1744–1749 DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.034132-0 Arenimonas metalli sp. nov., isolated from an iron mine Fang Chen, Zunji Shi and Gejiao Wang Correspondence State Key Laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology, College of Life Science and Technology, Gejiao Wang Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan, 430070, PR China [email protected] A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium (CF5-1T) was isolated from Hongshan Iron Mine, Daye City, Hubei province, China. The major cellular fatty acids (.10 %) were iso- C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0,C16 : 1v7c alcohol and iso-C17 : 1v9c. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The major respiratory quinone was Q-8. The genomic DNA G+C content was 70.5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain CF5-1T was most closely related to Arenimonas malthae (95.3 % gene sequence similarity), Arenimonas oryziterrae (94.7 %), Arenimonas donghaensis (94.6 %) and Arenimonas composti (94.5 %). A taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach showed that strain CF5-1T represents a novel species of the genus Arenimonas, for which the name Arenimonas metalli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CF5-1T (5CGMCC 1.10787T5KCTC 23460T5CCTCC AB 2010449T). The family Xanthomonadaceae was described by Saddler & characteristics of members of the genus Arenimonas are Bradbury (2005), and although, according to Rule 51b(1) Gram-staining-negative, aerobic,
