Su calidad tiene un papel fundamental en el mantenimiento del balance entre producción y consumo de dióxido de carbono en la biosfera. El suelo no sólo es la base para la agricultura, sino que de él depende toda la vida del planeta. La mayor parte de las etapas de los ciclos biogeoquímicos tienen lugar en él (9). La actividad microbiana del suelo (o edáfica) da cuenta de las reacciones bioquímicas que se suceden dentro de este complejo y heterogéneo sistema. Los cambios en la tasa de circulación del carbono y de los nutrientes minerales en el suelo como consecuencia de las interacciones entre las plantas y otros organismos involucran modificaciones en la estructura y el funcionamiento de sus comunidades bióticas. En un ecosistema, la pronta respuesta de los procesos microbianos y de la estructura de las comunidades a las alteraciones físicas, químicas y biológicas constituye un aspecto central de la calidad del suelo. Los cambios en la estructura de las comunidades microbianas en sistemas perturbados generalmente están asociados a emisiones de gases con efecto invernadero (CO2, NO o N2O) y a la pérdida del N por lixiviación (8). El manejo agrícola convencional, que incluye el excesivo uso de maquinaria, ha incrementado la erosión del suelo y la concentración de dióxido de carbono atmosférico, y en consecuencia, el calenta- miento global. La aplicación de sistemas de manejo con uso reducido o nulo de maquinaria ha sido una estrategia para revertir este proceso de deterioro de los suelos (6), y los productores argentinos la han adoptado en forma generalizada, sobre todo en la región pampeana.

University Street, Peoria, IL 61604, USA 3Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Program, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK 73019 USA A species of a previously unknown Gram-positive-staining, anaerobic, coccus-shaped bacterium recovered from a swine manure storage tank was characterized using phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and molecular taxonomic methods. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing studies and biochemical characteristics demonstrated that this organism is genotypically and phenotypically distinct, and represents a previously unknown sub-line within the order Clostridiales, within the phylum Firmicutes. Pairwise sequence analysis demonstrated that the novel organism clustered within the genus Peptoniphilus, most closely related to Peptoniphilus methioninivorax sharing a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 95.5 %. The major long-chain fatty acids were found to be C14 : 0 (22.4 %), C16 : 0 (15.6 %), C16 : 1v7c (11.3 %) and C16 : 0 ALDE (10.1 %) and the DNA G +C content was 31.8 mol%. Based upon the phenotypic and phylogenetic findings presented, a novel species Peptoniphilus stercorisuis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SF-S1T (5DSM 27563T5NBRC 109839T).

    NATIONAL STANDARD METHOD IDENTIFICATION OF ANAEROBIC COCCI BSOP ID 14 Issued by Standards Unit, Department for Evaluations, Standards and Training Centre for Infections IDENTIFICATION OF ANAEROBIC COCCI Issue no.2 Issue date:03.12.09 Issued by Standards Unit, Department for Evaluations, Standards and Training Page 1 of 13 Reference no: BSOP ID 14i2 This NSM should be used in conjunction with the series of other NSMs from the Health Protection Agency www.evaluations-standards.org.uk Email: [email protected] STATUS OF NATIONAL STANDARD METHODS National Standard Methods, which include standard operating procedures (SOPs), algorithms and guidance notes, promote high quality practices and help to assure the comparability of diagnostic information obtained in different laboratories. This in turn facilitates standardisation of surveillance underpinned by research, development and audit and promotes public health and patient confidence in their healthcare services. The methods are well referenced and represent a good minimum standard for clinical and public health microbiology. However, in using National Standard Methods, laboratories should take account of local requirements and may need to undertake additional investigations. The methods also provide a reference point for method development. National Standard Methods are developed, reviewed and updated through an open and wide consultation process where the views of all participants are considered and the resulting documents reflect the majority agreement of contributors. Representatives of several professional organisations, including those whose logos appear on the front cover, are members of the working groups which develop National Standard Methods. Inclusion of an organisation’s logo on the front cover implies support for the objectives and process of preparing standard methods.

  • Groundwater Chemistry and Microbiology in a Wet
    GROUNDWATER CHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY IN A WET-TROPICS AGRICULTURAL CATCHMENT James Stanley B.Sc. (Earth Science). Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy School of Earth, Environmental and Biological Sciences, Science and Engineering Faculty. Queensland University of Technology 2019 Page | 1 ABSTRACT The coastal wet-tropics region of north Queensland is characterised by extensive sugarcane plantations. Approximately 33% of the total nitrogen in waterways discharging into the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) has been attributed to the sugarcane industry. This is due to the widespread use of nitrogen-rich fertilisers combined with seasonal high rainfall events. Consequently, the health and water quality of the GBR is directly affected by the intensive agricultural activities that dominate the wet-tropics catchments. The sustainability of the sugarcane industry as well as the health of the GBR depends greatly on growers improving nitrogen management practices. Groundwater and surface water ecosystems influence the concentrations and transport of agricultural contaminants, such as excess nitrogen, through complex bio-chemical and geo- chemical processes. In recent years, a growing amount of research has focused on groundwater and soil chemistry in the wet-tropics of north Queensland, specifically in regard to mobile - nitrogen in the form of nitrate (NO3 ). However, the abundance, diversity and bio-chemical influence of microorganisms in our wet-tropics groundwater aquifers has received little attention. The objectives of this study were 1) to monitor seasonal changes in groundwater chemistry in aquifers underlying sugarcane plantations in a catchment in the wet tropics of north Queensland and 2) to identify what microbiological organisms inhabit the groundwater aquifer environment.

  • Peptoniphilus Obesi Sp. Nov
    Standards in Genomic Sciences (2013) 7:357-369 DOI:10.4056/sigs.3276687 Non contiguous-finished genome sequence and description of Peptoniphilus obesi sp. nov. Ajay Kumar Mishra1*, Perrine Hugon1*, Jean-Christophe Lagier1, Thi-Thien Nguyen1, Catherine Robert1, Carine Couderc1, Didier Raoult1 and Pierre-Edouard Fournier1 1Aix-Marseille Université, Marseille, France *Correspondence: Pierre-Edouard Fournier ([email protected]) Keywords: Peptoniphilus obesi, genome Peptoniphilus obesi strain ph1T sp. nov., is the type strain of P. obesi sp. nov., a new species within the genus Peptoniphilus. This strain, whose genome is described here, was isolated from the fecal flora of a 26-year-old woman suffering from morbid obesity. P. obesi strain ph1T is a Gram-positive, obligate anaerobic coccus. Here we describe the features of this or- ganism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. The 1,774,150 bp long genome (1 chromosome but no plasmid) contains 1,689 protein-coding and 29 RNA genes, including 5 rRNA genes. Introduction Peptoniphilus obesi strain ph1T (=CSUR=P187, Extensive taxonomic changes have occurred =DSM =25489) is the type strain of P. obesi sp. among this group of bacteria, especially in clinical- nov. This bacterium is a Gram-positive, anaerobic, ly-important genera such as Finegoldia, indole-negative coccus that was isolated from the Parvimonas, and Peptostreptococcus [20]. Mem- stool of a 26-year-old woman suffering from mor- bers of genus Peptostreptococcus were divided bid obesity and is part of a study aiming at culti- into three new genera, Peptoniphilus, vating all species within human feces, individually Anaerococcus and Gallicola by Ezaki [20].

Dit onderzoek is gestart naar aanleiding van een adviesvraag vanuit het voormalige ministerie van VROM aangaande de herziening van Bijlage 1 bij de Regeling GGO. Deze Bijlage 1 bestaat uit een lijst van micro-organismen die niet pathogeen zijn voor mens, dier of plant en waarmee onder bepaalde voorwaarden op het laagste inperkingsniveau ML-I gewerkt mag worden.
