Although the stimulating effects of elevated CO2 (eCO2) on plant growth and primary productivity have been established, its impacts on the diversity and function of soil microbial communities are poorly understood. In this study, phylogenetic microarrays (PhyloChip) were used to comprehensively survey the richness, composition and structure of soil microbial communities in a grassland experiment subjected to two CO2 conditions (ambient, 368 p.p.m., versus elevated, 560 p.p.m.) for 10 years. The richness based on the detected number of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) significantly decreased under eCO2. -

INTERNATIONAL BULLETIN of BACTERIOLOGICAL NOMENCLATURE and TAXONOMY Vol
INTERNATIONAL BULLETIN OF BACTERIOLOGICAL NOMENCLATURE AND TAXONOMY Vol. 15, No. 3 July 15, 1965 pp. 143-163 THE CLASSIFICATION AND PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS OF THE ACTINOMYCETALES ' Leo Pine and Lucille Georg Communicable Disease Center, Public Health Service, U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, Atlanta, Georgia SUMMARY. The taxonomic and phylogenetic re- lationships of members of the order Actino- mycetales have been examined. On the basis of cellular and colony morphology, cell wall composition, fermentation products, and cer- tain physiological characteristics, the taxa within the family Actinomycetaceae were divided into two groups. Each group was closely related to members of the family -Lactobacillaceae. One group consisted of Actinomyces israelii, -A. naeslundii, ,A. pro- pionicus, Nocardia dentocariosus and Odonto- myces viscosis ("hamster organism"). The second group consisted of bovis, ,A. erik- sonii, and Lactobacillus bifidusA. type 11 (k parabifidus). This latter organism was re- named Actinomyces pa.rabifidus nov. comb. because its morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics related it to the members of both groups of the genus Actino- myces. The families Streptomycetaceae and Mycobacteriaceae appeared more closely re- lated to the family Corynebacteriaceae than to the family Actinomycetaceae. The use of certain criteria for classification and deter- mination of phylogenetic relationships was discussed. We have stressed those areas in which necessasy information is lacking. A report to -
Bacterial Diversity and Functional Analysis of Severe Early Childhood
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Bacterial diversity and functional analysis of severe early childhood caries and recurrence in India Balakrishnan Kalpana1,3, Puniethaa Prabhu3, Ashaq Hussain Bhat3, Arunsaikiran Senthilkumar3, Raj Pranap Arun1, Sharath Asokan4, Sachin S. Gunthe2 & Rama S. Verma1,5* Dental caries is the most prevalent oral disease afecting nearly 70% of children in India and elsewhere. Micro-ecological niche based acidifcation due to dysbiosis in oral microbiome are crucial for caries onset and progression. Here we report the tooth bacteriome diversity compared in Indian children with caries free (CF), severe early childhood caries (SC) and recurrent caries (RC). High quality V3–V4 amplicon sequencing revealed that SC exhibited high bacterial diversity with unique combination and interrelationship. Gracillibacteria_GN02 and TM7 were unique in CF and SC respectively, while Bacteroidetes, Fusobacteria were signifcantly high in RC. Interestingly, we found Streptococcus oralis subsp. tigurinus clade 071 in all groups with signifcant abundance in SC and RC. Positive correlation between low and high abundant bacteria as well as with TCS, PTS and ABC transporters were seen from co-occurrence network analysis. This could lead to persistence of SC niche resulting in RC. Comparative in vitro assessment of bioflm formation showed that the standard culture of S. oralis and its phylogenetically similar clinical isolates showed profound bioflm formation and augmented the growth and enhanced bioflm formation in S. mutans in both dual and multispecies cultures. Interaction among more than 700 species of microbiota under diferent micro-ecological niches of the human oral cavity1,2 acts as a primary defense against various pathogens. Tis has been observed to play a signifcant role in child’s oral and general health. -

Summary Bacteria live in almost any imaginable environment, from the most extreme envi- ronments (e.g. in hydrothermal vents) to the bovine and human gastrointestinal tract. By adapting to such diverse environments, they have developed a large arsenal of enzymes involved in a wide variety of biochemical reactions. While some such enzymes support our digestion or can be used for the optimization of biotechnological processes, others may be harmful { e.g. mediating the roles of bacteria in human diseases. -
1 Supplementary Material a Major Clade of Prokaryotes with Ancient
Supplementary Material A major clade of prokaryotes with ancient adaptations to life on land Fabia U. Battistuzzi and S. Blair Hedges Data assembly and phylogenetic analyses Protein data set: Amino acid sequences of 25 protein-coding genes (“proteins”) were concatenated in an alignment of 18,586 amino acid sites and 283 species. These proteins included: 15 ribosomal proteins (RPL1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 11, 13, 16; RPS2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11), four genes (RNA polymerase alpha, beta, and gamma subunits, Transcription antitermination factor NusG) from the functional category of Transcription, three proteins (Elongation factor G, Elongation factor Tu, Translation initiation factor IF2) of the Translation, Ribosomal Structure and Biogenesis functional category, one protein (DNA polymerase III, beta subunit) of the DNA Replication, Recombination and repair category, one protein (Preprotein translocase SecY) of the Cell Motility and Secretion category, and one protein (O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase) of the Posttranslational Modification, Protein Turnover, Chaperones category, as annotated in the Cluster of Orthologous Groups (COG) (Tatusov et al. 2001). After removal of multiple strains of the same species, GBlocks 0.91b (Castresana 2000) was applied to each protein in the concatenation to delete poorly aligned sites (i.e., sites with gaps in more than 50% of the species and conserved in less than 50% of the species) with the following parameters: minimum number of sequences for a conserved position: 110, minimum number of sequences for a flank position: 110, maximum number of contiguous non-conserved positions: 32000, allowed gap positions: with half. The signal-to-noise ratio was determined by altering the “minimum length of a block” parameter. -
Metagenomic Analyses of Bacteria on Human Hairs: a Qualitative Assessment for Applications in Forensic Science Tridico Et Al
Metagenomic analyses of bacteria on human hairs: a qualitative assessment for applications in forensic science Tridico et al. Tridico et al. Investigative Genetics 2014, 5:16 http://www.investigativegenetics.com/content/5/1/16 Tridico et al. Investigative Genetics 2014, 5:16 http://www.investigativegenetics.com/content/5/1/16 RESEARCH Open Access Metagenomic analyses of bacteria on human hairs: a qualitative assessment for applications in forensic science Silvana R Tridico1,2*, Dáithí C Murray1,2, Jayne Addison1, Kenneth P Kirkbride3 and Michael Bunce1,2 Abstract Background: Mammalian hairs are one of the most ubiquitous types of trace evidence collected in the course of forensic investigations. However, hairs that are naturally shed or that lack roots are problematic substrates for DNA profiling; these hair types often contain insufficient nuclear DNA to yield short tandem repeat (STR) profiles. Whilst there have been a number of initial investigations evaluating the value of metagenomics analyses for forensic applications (e.g. examination of computer keyboards), there have been no metagenomic evaluations of human hairs—a substrate commonly encountered during forensic practice. This present study attempts to address this forensic capability gap, by conducting a qualitative assessment into the applicability of metagenomic analyses of human scalp and pubic hair. Results: Forty-two DNA extracts obtained from human scalp and pubic hairs generated a total of 79,766 reads, yielding 39,814 reads post control and abundance filtering. The results revealed the presence of unique combinations of microbial taxa that can enable discrimination between individuals and signature taxa indigenous to female pubic hairs. Microbial data from a single co-habiting couple added an extra dimension to the study by suggesting that metagenomic analyses might be of evidentiary value in sexual assault cases when other associative evidence is not present. -
Association of Dietary Patterns with the Fecal Microbiota in Korean Adolescents Han Byul Jang1, Min-Kyu Choi2, Jae Heon Kang3, Sang Ick Park1 and Hye-Ja Lee1*
Jang et al. BMC Nutrition (2017) 3:20 DOI 10.1186/s40795-016-0125-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Association of dietary patterns with the fecal microbiota in Korean adolescents Han Byul Jang1, Min-Kyu Choi2, Jae Heon Kang3, Sang Ick Park1 and Hye-Ja Lee1* Abstract Background: The gut microbiota has emerged as an important environmental factor associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, through its interactions with dietary factors. Therefore, we analyzed the composition of the fecal microbiota and levels of biochemical markers related to metabolic disease according to dietary pattern in Korean adolescents. Methods: We collected fecal samples from 112 student subjects aged 13–16 years with sufficient information available regarding clinical biomarkers and diet, and performed 16S rRNA targeted gene sequencing. Results: Regarding bacterial composition according to taxonomic rank, we found that traditional dietary patterns enriched in plant-based and fermented foods were associated with higher proportions of Bacteroides (Bacteroidaceae)and Bifidobacterium (Bifidobacteriaceae-Actinobacteria) and a lower proportion of Prevotella (Prevotellaceae) relative to modified Western dietary patterns (a greater proportion of animal-based foods). Specifically, the proportion of Bacteroides (Bacteroidaceae) was associated with intake of plant-basednutrientssuchasfiber; however, that of Prevotella (Prevotellaceae) was negatively associated with these factors. Additionally, we observed that the increase of prevotella (Prevotellaceae)anddecreaseofBacteroides (Bacteroidaceae)andRuminococcaceae had a higher risk of obesity. We also found that the traditional dietary pattern was negatively associated with general and central adiposity and levels of clinical biomarkers, including AST, ALT, total cholesterol, triglyceride, hs-CRP, insulin, and HOMA-IR, whereas the positive associations were found for a modified Western dietary pattern.
