Microbial Analysis Report Microbial Analysis Submitted to XXXXXXXXXXXX December 7, 2015 Submitted by Trevor Ghylin, P.E., PhD www.microbedetectives.com [email protected] Executive Summary The DNA data revealed the following: - Two samples were very similar even though one came from a system with an anaerobic zone and one did not - Traditional AOB and NOB were not detected at all indicating potential for SND (simultaneous nitrification denitrification) by non-traditional AOB/NOB - PAOs were detected in somewhat low abundance but relatives of known PAOs were also detected - A small amount of iron oxidizing bacteria were detected in Basin 7 but not basin 6 - Filaments and foaming were not abundant - Some nitrogen fixing bacteria were detected indicating potential for nitrogen limitation - Sulfate reducing bacteria were detected. Some have been associated with high alkalinity and thermophilic conditions. This is unusual for municipal wastewater - Photosynthetic bacteria were detected indicating potential growth in clarifiers or other sun-exposed locations Background 2 samples were received by Microbe Detectives on 11/13/15 labelled: AerationBasin6_S2 AerationBasin7_S3 DNA results and analysis of this sample are presented below. Results DNA data are displayed in Table 1 and the DNAmyWastewater™ tables. The data in these tables is a subset of the total data, focusing on bacteria that are typically important in wastewater systems. The full data is also provided in a spreadsheet. Data presented are bacterial relative abundance (% of total bacteria in the sample). For example 0.12% Actinobacteria means that 0.12% of bacteria in the sample are Actinobacteria. The two samples had very similar bacterial communities even though they were apparently collected from different systems where one system includes an anaerobic environment and the other does not. The similarity of these samples suggests that either the sludge from the two locations is mixed or the anaerobic environment in the one system is not anaerobic enough to have an impact on the microbial population. Phylum Figures 1-2 show the phylum distribution for the samples. The predominant phyla were Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes which contain many common environmental bacteria.. Fermentation/Anaerobic Decay The data shows only a small amount of fermenters (Actinobacteria and Firmicutes) in the sample. The fermenting bacteria produce volatile fatty acids necessary for biological phosphorus removal. Fermentation can also occur upstream in sewer systems that have extended residence times. Phosphorus Dechloromonas and Rhodocyclus were detected at somewhat low concentrations (~0.5% each). Both of these bacteria are associated with biological phosphorus removal. Additionally, several bacteria related to Dechloromonas and Rhodocyclus were detected including Azonexus, Zoogloea and Thauera. These bacteria are closely related to PAOs but have not been shown to perform enhanced biological uptake of phosphorus at this point. The science may change on this in the future. Nitrogen The common ammonia and nitrite oxidizing bacteria Nitrosomonas and Nitrospira were not detected. This is somewhat unusual. It is likely that ammonia removal is being performed by other bacteria, possibly Dechloromonas, Thauera, or others that have been shown to perform simultaneous nitrification-denitrification in low DO environments. A relatively high amount of nitrogen fixing bacteria (Azonexus, Azohydromonas) were found in the samples, indicating that the wastewater may be somewhat nitrogen limited. Filaments/Foaming Actinomycetales and Acidimicrobiales were found only in low abundance. Filaments and foaming do not appear to be an issue. Zoogloea was also found in relatively low abundance. This bacteria causes slime bulking and is associated with nutrient deficiency, high f:m, high soluble organic loading or low pH. Iron/Sulfur Gallionella were detected in Aeration Basin 7 S3 but not in Aeration basin 6 S2. These bacteria oxidize iron for energy. Sulfur associated bacteria were also detected in lower quantities (<0.5%), indicating the presence of reduced sulfur and also sulfate. Desulfonatronospira, Thermodesulforhabdus, Thiorhodospira were detected. Desulfonatronospira has been associated with alkaline high pH conditions. Thermodesulforhabdus has been associated with thermophilic conditions and Thiorhodospira is a strictly anaerobic, photosynthetic purple sulfur bacteria. The presence of sulfur can hinder ammonia removal and can also cause filamentous issues, although the primary sulfur filament (Thiothrix, aka 021N) was not observed. Photosynthesis A cyanobacteria (Aphanothece) and a photosynthetic purple sulfur bacteria (Thiorhodospira) were detected. This is unusual for wastewater. This may indicate some ability for photosynthetic organisms to grow in the secondary clarifiers. Table 1.

Ivanova1 Analysis of the increasing wealth of metagenomic data collected from diverse environments can lead to the discovery of novel branches on the tree of life. Here we analyse 5.2 Tb of metagenomic data collected globally to discover a novel bacterial phylum (‘Candidatus Kryptonia’) found exclusively in high-temperature pH-neutral geothermal springs. This lineage had remained hidden as a taxonomic ‘blind spot’ because of mismatches in the primers commonly used for ribosomal gene surveys. Genome reconstruction from metagenomic data combined with single-cell genomics results in several high-quality genomes representing four genera from the new phylum. Metabolic reconstruction indicates a heterotrophic lifestyle with conspicuous nutritional deficiencies, suggesting the need for metabolic complementarity with other microbes. Co-occurrence patterns identifies a number of putative partners, including an uncultured Armatimonadetes lineage. The discovery of Kryptonia within previously studied geothermal springs underscores the importance of globally sampled metagenomic data in detection of microbial novelty, and highlights the extraordinary diversity of microbial life still awaiting discovery. 1 Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute, Walnut Creek, California 94598, USA. 2 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta T2N 1N4, Canada.

    Schulz et al. Microbiome (2017) 5:140 DOI 10.1186/s40168-017-0360-9 SHORTREPORT Open Access Towards a balanced view of the bacterial tree of life Frederik Schulz*, Emiley A. Eloe-Fadrosh, Robert M. Bowers, Jessica Jarett, Torben Nielsen, Natalia N. Ivanova, Nikos C. Kyrpides and Tanja Woyke* Abstract The bacterial tree of life has recently undergone significant expansion, chiefly from candidate phyla retrieved through genome-resolved metagenomics. Bypassing the need for genome availability, we present a snapshot of bacterial phylogenetic diversity based on the recovery of high-quality SSU rRNA gene sequences extracted from nearly 7000 metagenomes and all available reference genomes. We illuminate taxonomic richness within established bacterial phyla together with environmental distribution patterns, providing a revised framework for future phylogeny-driven sequencing efforts. Keywords: Bacteria, Bacterial diversity, Tree of life, Small subunit (SSU) rRNA, Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR), Microbial dark matter (MDM), Metagenomics, Novel bacterial lineages Main text clades [7, 8], as achieved by data de-replication after Bacteria are major drivers of global biogeochemical cycles, clustering. We constructed a robust phylogeny from all impacting the environment, animal and plant health, and SSU rRNA gene sequences extracted from metagenomes theevolutionarytrajectoryoflifeonEarth.Modern and high-quality reference genomes available through molecular approaches have provided a means to construct the Integrated Microbial Genomes with Microbiome

Blue Marble Space Institute of Science, Seattle, WA, USA Abstract: Biological methane cycling plays an important role in Earth’s climate and the global carbon cycle, with biological methane oxidation (methanotrophy) modulating methane release from numerous environments including soils, sediments, and water columns. Methanotrophy is typically coupled to aerobic respiration or anaerobically via the reduction of sulfate, nitrate, or metal oxides, and while the possibility of coupling methane oxidation to phototrophy (photomethanotrophy) has been proposed, no organism has ever been described that is capable of this metabolism.

  • Expanded Diversity of Microbial Groups That Shape the Dissimilatory Sulfur Cycle

This article is published with open access Abstract A critical step in the biogeochemical cycle of sulfur on Earth is microbial sulfate reduction, yet organisms from relatively few lineages have been implicated in this process. Previous studies using functional marker genes have detected abundant, novel dissimilatory sulfite reductases (DsrAB) that could confer the capacity for microbial sulfite/sulfate reduction but were not affiliated with known organisms. Thus, the identity of a significant fraction of sulfate/sulfite-reducing microbes has remained elusive. Here we report the discovery of the capacity for sulfate/sulfite reduction in the genomes of organisms from 1234567890();,: 13 bacterial and archaeal phyla, thereby more than doubling the number of microbial phyla associated with this process. Eight of the 13 newly identified groups are candidate phyla that lack isolated representatives, a finding only possible given genomes from metagenomes. Organisms from Verrucomicrobia and two candidate phyla, Candidatus Rokubacteria and Candidatus Hydrothermarchaeota, contain some of the earliest evolved dsrAB genes. The capacity for sulfite reduction has been laterally transferred in multiple events within some phyla, and a key gene potentially capable of modulating sulfur metabolism in associated cells has been acquired by putatively symbiotic bacteria.

  • A Metagenomics Roadmap to the Uncultured Genome Diversity in Hypersaline Soda Lake Sediments Charlotte D
    Vavourakis et al. Microbiome (2018) 6:168 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40168-018-0548-7 RESEARCH Open Access A metagenomics roadmap to the uncultured genome diversity in hypersaline soda lake sediments Charlotte D. Vavourakis1 , Adrian-Stefan Andrei2†, Maliheh Mehrshad2†, Rohit Ghai2, Dimitry Y. Sorokin3,4 and Gerard Muyzer1* Abstract Background: Hypersaline soda lakes are characterized by extreme high soluble carbonate alkalinity. Despite the high pH and salt content, highly diverse microbial communities are known to be present in soda lake brines but the microbiome of soda lake sediments received much less attention of microbiologists. Here, we performed metagenomic sequencing on soda lake sediments to give the first extensive overview of the taxonomic diversity found in these complex, extreme environments and to gain novel physiological insights into the most abundant, uncultured prokaryote lineages. Results: We sequenced five metagenomes obtained from four surface sediments of Siberian soda lakes with a pH 10 and a salt content between 70 and 400 g L−1. The recovered 16S rRNA gene sequences were mostly from Bacteria,evenin the salt-saturated lakes. Most OTUs were assigned to uncultured families. We reconstructed 871 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) spanning more than 45 phyla and discovered the first extremophilic members of the Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR). Five new species of CPR were among the most dominant community members. Novel dominant lineages were found within previously well-characterized functional groups involved in carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen cycling. Moreover, key enzymes of the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway were encoded within at least four bacterial phyla never previously associated with this ancient anaerobic pathway for carbon fixation and dissimilation, including the Actinobacteria.

  • Microbial Community Structure Analysis in Acer Palmatum Bark and Isolation of Novel Bacteria IAD-21 of the Phylum Abditibacteriota (Former Candidate Division FBP)
    Microbial community structure analysis in Acer palmatum bark and isolation of novel bacteria IAD-21 of the phylum Abditibacteriota (former candidate division FBP) Kazuki Kobayashi1 and Hideki Aoyagi1,2 1 Division of Life Sciences and Bioengineering, Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan 2 Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan ABSTRACT Background: The potential of unidentified microorganisms for academic and other applications is limitless. Plants have diverse microbial communities associated with their biomes. However, few studies have focused on the microbial community structure relevant to tree bark. Methods: In this report, the microbial community structure of bark from the broad-leaved tree Acer palmatum was analyzed. Both a culture-independent approach using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and next generation sequencing, and bacterial isolation and sequence-based identification methods were used to explore the bark sample as a source of previously uncultured microorganisms. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on PCR-amplified 16S rDNA sequences were performed. Results: At the phylum level, Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes were relatively abundant in the A. palmatum bark. In addition, microorganisms from the phyla Acidobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, Verrucomicrobia, Armatimonadetes, and Submitted 2 February 2019 Abditibacteriota, which contain many uncultured microbial species, existed in the Accepted 12 September 2019 A. palmatum bark.

  • Fimbriimonadia in the Phylum Armatimonadetes
    The First Complete Genome Sequence of the Class Fimbriimonadia in the Phylum Armatimonadetes Zi-Ye Hu1., Yue-Zhu Wang2., Wan-Taek Im3, Sheng-Yue Wang2, Guo-Ping Zhao1,2, Hua-Jun Zheng2,4*, Zhe-Xue Quan1* 1 Department of Microbiology and Microbial Engineering, School of Life Sciences, Fudan University, Shanghai, China, 2 Shanghai-MOST Key Laboratory of Health and Disease Genomics, Chinese National Human Genome Center at Shanghai, Shanghai, China, 3 Department of Biotechnology, Hankyoung National Univeristy, Kyonggi-do, Republic of Korea, 4 Laboratory of Medical Foods, Shanghai Institute of Planned Parenthood Research, Shanghai, China Abstract In this study, we present the complete genome of Fimbriimonas ginsengisoli Gsoil 348T belonging to the class Fimbriimonadia of the phylum Armatimonadetes, formerly called as candidate phylum OP10. The complete genome contains a single circular chromosome of 5.23 Mb including a 45.5 kb prophage. Of the 4820 open reading frames (ORFs), 3,000 (62.2%) genes could be classified into Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG) families. With the split of rRNA genes, strain Gsoil 348T had no typical 16S-23S-5S ribosomal RNA operon. In this genome, the GC skew inversion which was usually observed in archaea was found. The predicted gene functions suggest that the organism lacks the ability to synthesize histidine, and the TCA cycle is incomplete. Phylogenetic analyses based on ribosomal proteins indicated that strain Gsoil 348T represents a deeply branching lineage of sufficient divergence with other phyla, but also strongly involved in superphylum Terrabacteria.
