The Subway Microbiome: Seasonal Dynamics and Direct Comparison Of
Gohli et al. Microbiome (2019) 7:160 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40168-019-0772-9 RESEARCH Open Access The subway microbiome: seasonal dynamics and direct comparison of air and surface bacterial communities Jostein Gohli1* , Kari Oline Bøifot1,2, Line Victoria Moen1, Paulina Pastuszek3, Gunnar Skogan1, Klas I. Udekwu4 and Marius Dybwad1,2 Abstract Background: Mass transit environments, such as subways, are uniquely important for transmission of microbes among humans and built environments, and for their ability to spread pathogens and impact large numbers of people. In order to gain a deeper understanding of microbiome dynamics in subways, we must identify variables that affect microbial composition and those microorganisms that are unique to specific habitats. Methods: We performed high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing of air and surface samples from 16 subway stations in Oslo, Norway, across all four seasons. Distinguishing features across seasons and between air and surface were identified using random forest classification analyses, followed by in-depth diversity analyses. Results: There were significant differences between the air and surface bacterial communities, and across seasons. Highly abundant groups were generally ubiquitous; however, a large number of taxa with low prevalence and abundance were exclusively present in only one sample matrix or one season. Among the highly abundant families and genera, we found that some were uniquely so in air samples. In surface samples, all highly abundant groups were also well represented in air samples. This is congruent with a pattern observed for the entire dataset, namely that air samples had significantly higher within-sample diversity. We also observed a seasonal pattern: diversity was higher during spring and summer. -

This article is published with open access Abstract Members of the candidate phylum Acetothermia are globally distributed and detected in various habitats. However, little is known about their physiology and ecological importance. In this study, an operational taxonomic unit belonging to Acetothermia was detected at high abundance in four full-scale anaerobic digesters by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. The first closed genome from this phylum was obtained by differential coverage binning of metagenomes and scaffolding with long nanopore reads. Genome annotation and metabolic reconstruction suggested an anaerobic chemoheterotrophic 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: lifestyle in which the bacterium obtains energy and carbon via fermentation of peptides, amino acids, and simple sugars to acetate, formate, and hydrogen. The morphology was unusual and composed of a central rod-shaped cell with bipolar prosthecae as revealed by fluorescence in situ hybridization combined with confocal laser scanning microscopy, Raman microspectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. We hypothesize that these prosthecae allow for increased nutrient uptake by greatly expanding the cell surface area, providing a competitive advantage under nutrient-limited conditions.

Page 1/23 Abstract Ginseng is an important cash crop. The long-term continuous cropping of ginseng causes the imbalance of soil environment and the exacerbation of soil-borne diseases, which affects the healthy development of ginseng industry. In this study, ginseng continuous cropping soil was treated with microbial inocula using broad-spectrum biocontrol microbial strain Frankia F1. Wheat straw, rice straw and corn straw were the best carrier materials for microbial inoculum. After treatment with microbial inoculum prepared with corn stalk biochar, the soil pH value, organic matter, total nitrogen, available nitrogen, available phosphorus, and available potassium were increased by 11.18%, 55.43%, 33.07%, 26.70%, 16.40%, and 9.10%, the activities of soil urease, catalase and sucrase increased by 52.73%, 16.80% and 43.80%, respectively. A Metagenomic showed that after the application of microbial inoculum prepared fromwith corn stalk biochar, soil microbial OTUs, Chao1 index, Shannon index, and Simpson index increased by 19.86%, 16.05%, 28.83%, and 3.16%, respectively. -

Foster Graduate Degree Program in Ecology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2018 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: M. Francesca Cotrufo Louise Comas Charles Rhoades Matthew D. Wallenstein Copyright by Erika J. Foster 2018 All Rights Reserved i ABSTRACT IMPLEMENTING ORGANIC AMENDMENTS TO ENHANCE MAIZE YIELD, SOIL MOISTURE, AND MICROBIAL NUTRIENT CYCLING IN TEMPERATE AGRICULTURE To sustain agricultural production into the future, management should enhance natural biogeochemical cycling within the soil. Strategies to increase yield while reducing chemical fertilizer inputs and irrigation require robust research and development before widespread implementation. Current innovations in crop production use amendments such as manure and biochar charcoal to increase soil organic matter and improve soil structure, water, and nutrient content. Organic amendments also provide substrate and habitat for soil microorganisms that can play a key role cycling nutrients, improving nutrient availability for crops. Additional plant growth promoting bacteria can be incorporated into the soil as inocula to enhance soil nutrient cycling through mechanisms like phosphorus solubilization. Since microbial inoculation is highly effective under drought conditions, this technique pairs well in agricultural systems using limited irrigation to save water, particularly in semi-arid regions where climate change and population growth exacerbate water scarcity. The research in this dissertation examines synergistic techniques to reduce irrigation inputs, while building soil organic matter, and promoting natural microbial function to increase crop available nutrients. The research was conducted on conventional irrigated maize systems at the Agricultural Research Development and Education Center north of Fort Collins, CO. -
