Artificial Tricholoma matsutake (S. Ito et Imai) is an ectomycorrhizal cultivation of T. matsutake has not been successful [21, 46]. basidiomycete associated with Pinaceae and Fagaceae trees It is still unclear how ecological factors such as host in China, Korea, and elsewhere in the Northern Hemisphere plant, soil properties, and the associated microbial [43, 49]. Its fruiting body, the pine mushroom, is commercially communities influence the development of the T. matsutake important as a valuable food because of its medicinal fruiting body [2, 23, 28]. The soil surrounding T. matsutake effects and attractive flavor [14, 23]. Polysaccharides and contains diverse microbial communities that may affect the terpenoids extracted from its fruiting body have antitumor growth of T. matsutake mycelia and the formation of and antioxidant properties [19, 38, 48, 51]. The growth of mycorrhiza [25]. The soil microbial communities may also wild T. matsutake is extremely slow, and it is selective to the play a role in the material exchange between mushroom January 2016 ⎪ Vol. 26⎪ No. 1 90 Li et al. mycelia and plant host. Furthermore, the soil bacteria may live extracellularly inside fungal tissue [15]. Their role in fungal development is still unclear. Therefore, understanding the bacteria affiliated with T. matsutake and the microbial community structure underneath the mushroom has important implications for the artificial domestication and cultivation of T. matsutake. The microbial community in soil-mycelia aggregates and in the T. matsutake fairy ring zone has been studied [26, 41]. Park et al. [32] also found a new species associated with the pine mushroom. This suggests that the surroundings of T. matsutake contains rich microbial resources for us to understand. The microbial communities associated with T. matsutake fruiting bodies have been analyzed using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) [29]. However, studies on the bacterial diversity associated with T. matsutake fruiting Fig. 1. Location of the sampling sites of Tricholoma matsutake bodies have rarely used barcoded pyrosequencing. fruiting bodies and soil beneath the fruiting bodies. A majority (over 99%) of the microbes living in natural environments have not been cultured. Despite continuing using the pipette method [22]. pH was measured in soil water development of culture techniques for the isolation and extracted by dissolving air-dried soil in distilled water at a ratio of identification of microbes, it is still difficult to assess the 1:5.

This is attributed to the special environment which the microbes get inside the root canals and several other associated factors. Although a variety of microbes have been isolated from the root canal system, bacteria are the most common ones found to be associated with Endodontic infections. This article gives an in-depth view of the microbiology involved in endodontic infections during its different stages. Keywords: Bacteria, Endodontic, Infection, Microbiology Introduction Microorganisms play an unequivocal role in infecting root canal system. Endodontic infections are different from the other oral infections in the fact that they occur in an environment which is closed to begin with since the root canal system is an enclosed one, surrounded by hard tissues all around [1,2]. Most of the diseases of dental pulp and periradicular tissues are associated with microorganisms [3]. Endodontic infections occur and progress when the root canal system gets exposed to the oral environment by one reason or the other and simultaneously when there is fall in the body’s immune when the ingress is from a carious lesion or a traumatic injury to the coronal tooth structure.response [4].However, To begin the with, issue the if notmicrobes taken arecare confined of, ultimately to the leadsintra-radicular to the egress region of pathogensIn total, and bacteria their by-productsdetected from from the the oral apical cavity foramen fall into to 13 the separate periradicular phyla, tissues.

  • NC10 Phylum Anaerobs? Methanotrophs? Where Can I Find Them?
    NC10 phylum Anaerobs? Methanotrophs? Where can I find them? Beate Kraft Microbial Diversity 2012 Abstract Methylomirabilis oxyfera, the only cultured member of the NC10 phylum performs the newly discovered pathway of NO-dismutation. In this study different habitats were screened for the presence of member of this phylum and the diversity of the sequences obtained was analyzed. Furthermore enrichment cultures for nitrite reduction coupled to methane oxidation were set up. Indeed, the presence of NC10 seems to be associated with nitrite and methane rich fresh water environments. Introduction Recently a new nitrite reduction pathway, NO-dismutation, coupled to methane oxidation has been discovered (Ettwig et al. 2010). In NO-dismutation nitrite is oxidized to NO as in denitrification but then NO dimutated into N2 and O2 instead of being further reduced to N2O. The generated oxygen is then used for methane oxidation. The organism responsible for this process is Methylomirabils oxfera. It is the only cultured member of the candidate phylum NC10. Fig 1: Pathway of NO-dismutation (from Ettwig et al. 2010) It remains open if other members of the NC10 phylum share the same metabolism and respiratory pathway or if they are metabolically more diverse. 16S sequences that fall into the NC10 phylum have been found in mainly oxygen limited freshwater habitats such as lakes including lake sediments, rice paddy soils, wastewater sludge and ditches (Deutzmann and Schink 2011, Luesken et a.l 2011). Their occurrence apparently seem to be correlated with the presence of methane and nitrite in the habitat. This would suggest a similar respiratory pathway as in Methylomirabilis oxyfera.

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.

  • Sepf Is the Ftsz Anchor in Archaea, with Features of an Ancestral Cell Division System
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-23099-8 OPEN SepF is the FtsZ anchor in archaea, with features of an ancestral cell division system Nika Pende1,8, Adrià Sogues2,8, Daniela Megrian1,3, Anna Sartori-Rupp4, Patrick England 5, Hayk Palabikyan6, ✉ Simon K.-M.

Alzari 2 & ✉ Simonetta Gribaldo 1 Most archaea divide by binary fission using an FtsZ-based system similar to that of bacteria, 1234567890():,; but they lack many of the divisome components described in model bacterial organisms. Notably, among the multiple factors that tether FtsZ to the membrane during bacterial cell constriction, archaea only possess SepF-like homologs. Here, we combine structural, cellular, and evolutionary analyses to demonstrate that SepF is the FtsZ anchor in the human-associated archaeon Methanobrevibacter smithii. 3D super-resolution microscopy and quantitative analysis of immunolabeled cells show that SepF transiently co-localizes with FtsZ at the septum and possibly primes the future division plane. M. smithii SepF binds to membranes and to FtsZ, inducing filament bundling. High-resolution crystal structures of archaeal SepF alone and in complex with the FtsZ C-terminal domain (FtsZCTD) reveal that SepF forms a dimer with a homodimerization interface driving a binding mode that is different from that previously reported in bacteria. Phylogenetic analyses of SepF and FtsZ from bacteria and archaea indicate that the two proteins may date back to the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA), and we speculate that the archaeal mode of SepF/FtsZ interaction might reflect an ancestral feature. Our results provide insights into the mechanisms of archaeal cell division and pave the way for a better understanding of the processes underlying the divide between the two prokaryotic domains.
