Be sure to page beyond the references to see it. 1 Abstract Ancestor-descendent relations play a cardinal role in evolutionary theory. Those relatio ns are determined by rooting phylogenetic trees. Existing rooting methods are hampered by evolutionary rate heterogeneity or the unavailability of auxiliary phylogenetic information. We present a novel rooting approach, the minimal ancestor deviation (MAD) method, which embraces heterotachy by utilizing all pairwise topological and metric information in unrooted trees. We demonstrate the method in comparison to existing rooting methods by the analysis of phylogenies from eukaryotes and prokaryotes. MAD correctly recovers the kno wn root of eukaryotes and uncovers evidence for cyanobacteria origins in the ocean. MAD is more robust and co nsistent than existing methods, provides measures of the root inference quality, and is applicable to any tree with branch lengths.

  • Analysis of Microbial Contamination of Household Water Purifiers
    Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology (2020) 104:4533–4545 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00253-020-10510-5 ENVIRONMENTAL BIOTECHNOLOGY Analysis of microbial contamination of household water purifiers Wenfang Lin1 & Chengsong Ye2 & Lizheng Guo 1,3 & Dong Hu1,3 & Xin Yu2 Received: 23 October 2019 /Revised: 13 February 2020 /Accepted: 28 February 2020 / Published online: 19 March 2020 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2020 Abstract Household water purifiers are increasingly used to treat drinking water at the household level, but their influence on the microbiological safety of drinking water has rarely been assessed. In this study, representative purifiers, based on different filtering processes, were analyzed for their impact on effluent water quality. The results showed that purifiers reduced chemical qualities such as turbidity and free chlorine. However, a high level of bacteria (102–106 CFU/g)wasdetectedateachstageof filtration using a traditional culture-dependent method, whereas quantitative PCR with propidium monoazide (PMA) treatment showed 106–108 copies/L of total viable bacteria in effluent water, indicating elevated microbial contaminants after purifiers. In addition, high-throughput sequencing revealed a diverse microbial community in effluents and membranes. Proteobacteria (22.06–97.42%) was the dominant phylum found in all samples, except for purifier B, in which Melainabacteria was most abundant (65.79%). For waterborne pathogens, Escherichia coli (100–106 copies/g) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (100–105 copies/g) were frequently detected by qPCR. Sequencing also demonstrated the presence of E. coli (0–6.26%), Mycobacterium mucogenicum (0.01–3.46%), and P. aeruginosa (0–0.16%) in purifiers. These finding suggest that water from commonly used household purifiers still impose microbial risks to human health.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN In silico analyses of conservational, functional and phylogenetic distribution of the LuxI and LuxR Received: 16 December 2016 Accepted: 26 June 2017 homologs in Gram-positive bacteria Published online: 10 August 2017 Akanksha Rajput & Manoj Kumar LuxI and LuxR are key factors that drive quorum sensing (QS) in bacteria through secretion and perception of the signaling molecules e.g. N-Acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs). The role of these proteins is well established in Gram-negative bacteria for intercellular communication but remain under-explored in Gram-positive bacteria where QS peptides are majorly responsible for cell-to- cell communication. Therefore, in the present study, we explored conservation, potential function, topological arrangements and evolutionarily aspects of these proteins in Gram-positive bacteria. Putative LuxI/LuxR containing proteins were retrieved using the domain-based strategy from InterPro v62.0 meta-database. Conservational analyses via multiple sequence alignment and domain showed that these are well conserved in Gram-positive bacteria and possess relatedness with Gram- negative bacteria. Further, Gene ontology and ligand-based functional annotation explain their active involvement in signal transduction mechanism via QS signaling molecules. Moreover, Phylogenetic analyses (LuxI, LuxR, LuxI + LuxR and 16s rRNA) revealed horizontal gene transfer events with signifcant statistical support among Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. This in-silico study ofers a detailed overview of potential LuxI/LuxR distribution in Gram-positive bacteria (mainly Firmicutes and Actinobacteria) and their functional role in QS. It would further help in understanding the extent of interspecies communications between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria through QS signaling molecules.

  • Crown Group Oxyphotobacteria Postdate the Rise Of
    360 Appendix 5 CROWN GROUP OXYPHOTOBACTERIA POSTDATE THE RISE OF OXYGEN Patrick M. Shih, James Hemp, Lewis M. Ward, Nicholas J. Matzke, and Woodward W. Fischer. “Crown group Oxyphotobacteria postdate the rise of oxygen." Geobiology 15.1 (2017): 19-29. DOI: 10.1111/gbi.12200 Abstract: The rise of oxygen ca. 2.3 billion years ago (Ga) is the most distinct environmental transition in Earth history. This event was enabled by the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis in the ancestors of Cyanobacteria. However, longstanding questions concern the evolutionary timing of this metabolism, with conflicting answers spanning more than one billion years. Recently, knowledge of the Cyanobacteria phylum has expanded with the discovery of non-photosynthetic members, including a closely related sister group termed Melainabacteria, with the known oxygenic phototrophs restricted to a clade recently designated Oxyphotobacteria. By integrating genomic data from the Melainabacteria, cross-calibrated Bayesian relaxed molecular clock analyses show that crown group Oxyphotobacteria evolved ca. 2.0 billion years ago (Ga), well after the rise of atmospheric dioxygen. We further estimate the divergence between Oxyphotobacteria and Melainabacteria ca. 2.5-2.6 Ga, which—if oxygenic photosynthesis is an evolutionary synapomorphy of the Oxyphotobacteria—marks an upper limit for the origin of oxygenic 361 photosynthesis. Together these results are consistent with the hypothesis that oxygenic photosynthesis evolved relatively close in time to the rise of oxygen. Introduction: Oxygenic photosynthesis was responsible for the most profound environmental shift in Earth history: the rise of oxygen. It was long recognized that this metabolism evolved in the Cyanobacteria phylum, and that this unique ability was a necessary precondition for the rise of oxygen at ca.
