In the present work, three poorly described vaginicolids, Pyxicola pusilla, Cothurnia ceramicola and Vaginicola tincta, were isolated from the surface of two freshwater/marine algae in China. In our study, the ciliature of Pyxicola and Vaginicola is revealed for the first time, demonstrating the taxonomic value of infundibular polykineties. The small subunit rDNA, ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 region and large subunit rDNA of the above species were sequenced for the first time. Phylogenetic analyses based on these genes indicated that Pyxicola and Cothurnia are closely related. -

Pheromone receptor Consistent with a role of mating type in mediating cytoplasmic-nuclear genomic conflict, Agaricomycetes have evolved away from a haploid yeast phase towards hyphal fusions that display reciprocal nuclear migration after mating rather than cytoplasmic fusion. Importantly, the evolution of this mating behavior is precisely timed with the onset of diversification of mating type alleles at the pheromone/receptor mating type loci that are known to control reciprocal nuclear migration during mating. -

Ford Doolittle, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada, and approved May 21, 2012 (received for review February 24, 2012) Microorganisms often form symbiotic relationships with eukar- ties (11, 12). Symbionts also can be transmitted vertically through yotes, and the complexity of these relationships can range from reproductive cells and larvae, as has been demonstrated in those with one single dominant symbiont to associations with sponges (13, 14), insects (15), ascidians (16), bivalves (17), and hundreds of symbiont species. Microbial symbionts occupying various other animals (18). Vertical transmission generally leads equivalent niches in different eukaryotic hosts may share func- to microbial communities with limited variation in taxonomy and tional aspects, and convergent genome evolution has been function among host individuals. reported for simple symbiont systems in insects. However, for Niches with similar selections may exist in phylogenetically complex symbiont communities, it is largely unknown how prev- divergent hosts that lead comparable lifestyles or have similar alent functional equivalence is and whether equivalent functions physiological properties. -

Comparing Deep-Sea Sponges of the Species Geodia Barretti from Different Locations in the North Atlantic
Comparing deep-sea sponges of the species Geodia barretti from different locations in the North Atlantic Isabel Ordaz Németh The study of genetic and geographic structures of populations for poorly studied species is not exactly straightforward. It is difficult to accurately compare populations of a species from which no genetic data is available. So, is there a way of comparing populations of such as species? There is one possibility, which is by using genetic markers called “Exon-Primed Intron- Crossing” (EPIC) markers. These markers, which are first designed for well-studied species, find a specific piece of DNA that all individuals of a species have. So, by using the markers we can, for example, take the same DNA fragment from several individuals that come from different locations. Then we translate the DNA fragments of these individuals and look at how different they are. This can give us a lot of information about the relationships within and between the populations of a species, as well as its history. Since a lot of genetic information is conserved across different species, we can test these markers on a species that we barely know, and the probability of finding a corresponding DNA fragment can still be quite high. EPIC markers could be very useful for different studies but they haven’t been extensively used since they are relatively new. In this project, the markers were tested on samples of the deep-sea sponge Geodia barretti. The sponges that were used came from different locations; from the Mediterranean Sea, to the coast of Norway, and all the way to the other side of the Atlantic, by the Eastern coast of Canada. -
Single-Cell Genomics Reveals the Lifestyle of Poribacteria, a Candidate Phylum Symbiotically Associated with Marine Sponges
The ISME Journal (2011) 5, 61–70 & 2011 International Society for Microbial Ecology All rights reserved 1751-7362/11 www.nature.com/ismej ORIGINAL ARTICLE Single-cell genomics reveals the lifestyle of Poribacteria, a candidate phylum symbiotically associated with marine sponges Alexander Siegl1,5, Janine Kamke1, Thomas Hochmuth2,Jo¨rn Piel2, Michael Richter3, Chunguang Liang4, Thomas Dandekar4 and Ute Hentschel1 1Department of Botany II, Julius-von-Sachs Institute for Biological Sciences, University of Wuerzburg, Wuerzburg, Germany; 2Kekule´ Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany; 3Ribocon GmbH, Bremen, Germany and 4Department of Bioinformatics, Biocenter, University of Wuerzburg, Wuerzburg, Germany In this study, we present a single-cell genomics approach for the functional characterization of the candidate phylum Poribacteria, members of which are nearly exclusively found in marine sponges. The microbial consortia of the Mediterranean sponge Aplysina aerophoba were singularized by fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and individual microbial cells were subjected to phi29 polymerase-mediated ‘whole-genome amplification’. Pyrosequencing of a single amplified genome (SAG) derived from a member of the Poribacteria resulted in nearly 1.6 Mb of genomic information distributed among 554 contigs analyzed in this study. Approximately two-third of the poribacterial genome was sequenced. Our findings shed light on the functional properties and lifestyle of a possibly ancient bacterial symbiont of marine sponges. The Poribacteria are mixotrophic bacteria with autotrophic CO2-fixation capacities through the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway. The cell wall is of Gram-negative origin. The Poribacteria produce at least two polyketide synthases (PKSs), one of which is the sponge-specific Sup-type PKS. -

From Northern Bass Strait, Southern Australia
31 August 1989 Memoirs of the Museum of Victoria 50(1): 1-242 (1989) ISSN 0814-1827 https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1989.50.01 DEMOSPONGIAE (PORIFERA) FROM NORTHERN BASS STRAIT, SOUTHERN AUSTRALIA By Felix Wiedenmayer Department of Invertebrate Zoology, Museum of Victoria, Swanston Street, Melbourne, Victoria 3000, Australia Present address: Naturhistorisches Museum Basel, Agustinergasse 2, 4001 Basel, Switzerland Abstract Wiedenmayer, F., 1989. Demospongiae from northern Bass Strait, southern Australia. Memoirs of the Museum of Victoria 50(1): 1-242. Eighty-four species (in 47 genera) in the Museum of Victoria, Melbourne, are described and illustrated. Of these, 21 species are described as new: Ancorina repens, A. suina, Stelletta arenitecta, Rhabdastrella cordata, R. intermedia, Tetilla praecipua, Latrunculia hallmanni, Pseudaxinella decipiens, Reniochalina sectilis, Rhaphoxya felina, Clathria wilsoni, Echinoclathria egena, Psammoclema bitextum, P. fissuratum, P. goniodes, P. radiatum, P. stipitatum, P. van- soesti, Callyspongia persculpta, C. toxifera, and Thorecta glomerosus. Eighteen records are new for the Maugean province, and three (Phorbas tenacior, Darwinella gardineri, and Gel- liodes incrustans) are new for the Australian fauna. The following revisions depart from those adopted in Wiedenmayer et al. (in press). The family Desmacididae is divided into Desmacidi- nae and Stylotellinae, and the genera Stylotella ( = Batzella), Phoriospongia ( = Chondropsis), and Psammoclema ( = Psammopemma, Sarcocornea) are assigned to the latter. Dactylia, Chalinopsilla and Arenosclera are synonymised with Callyspongia. Thorectandra is synonymised with Thorecta. Dendrilla cactos (Selenka) is a senior synonym of D. rosea Lendenfeld. The composition of this collection is even, with respect to the known demosponge fauna of Victoria and Tasmania. Its zoogeographic affinity is essentially Indo-West Pacific and relictic Tethyan, its provincial endemism high, and its overlap with the Antarctic/Subantarctic fauna almost nil.
