Aside from these quantitative limitations, our understanding of phenotypic Taxonomy and functional diversity of prokaryotes is also highly biased as not a single species has been described Nomenclature for 85 of the 118 phyla that are currently recognized. Due to recent advances in sequencing technology Candidatus and capacity, metagenomic datasets accumulate at an increasing speed and new bacterial and archaeal International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes genome sequences become available at a faster rate than newly described species. The growing gap between the diversity of Bacteria and Archaea held in pure culture and that detected by molecular methods has led to the proposal to establish a formal nomenclature for not-yet-cultured taxa primarily based on sequence information.

  • Pinpointing the Origin of Mitochondria Zhang Wang Hanchuan, Hubei
    Pinpointing the origin of mitochondria Zhang Wang Hanchuan, Hubei, China B.S., Wuhan University, 2009 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Biology University of Virginia August, 2014 ii Abstract The explosive growth of genomic data presents both opportunities and challenges for the study of evolutionary biology, ecology and diversity. Genome-scale phylogenetic analysis (known as phylogenomics) has demonstrated its power in resolving the evolutionary tree of life and deciphering various fascinating questions regarding the origin and evolution of earth’s contemporary organisms. One of the most fundamental events in the earth’s history of life regards the origin of mitochondria. Overwhelming evidence supports the endosymbiotic theory that mitochondria originated once from a free-living α-proteobacterium that was engulfed by its host probably 2 billion years ago. However, its exact position in the tree of life remains highly debated. In particular, systematic errors including sparse taxonomic sampling, high evolutionary rate and sequence composition bias have long plagued the mitochondrial phylogenetics. This dissertation employs an integrated phylogenomic approach toward pinpointing the origin of mitochondria. By strategically sequencing 18 phylogenetically novel α-proteobacterial genomes, using a set of “well-behaved” phylogenetic markers with lower evolutionary rates and less composition bias, and applying more realistic phylogenetic models that better account for the systematic errors, the presented phylogenomic study for the first time placed the mitochondria unequivocally within the Rickettsiales order of α- proteobacteria, as a sister clade to the Rickettsiaceae and Anaplasmataceae families, all subtended by the Holosporaceae family.

Xylose and glucose were converted to fatty acids, CO2,H2, and CH4 under moderately acidic, anoxic conditions, indicating that the fen harbors moderately acid-tolerant xylose- and glucose-using fermen- ters, as well as moderately acid-tolerant methanogens. Organisms of the families Acidaminococcaceae, Aero- monadaceae, Clostridiaceae, Enterobacteriaceae, and Pseudomonadaceae and the order Actinomycetales, including hitherto unknown organisms, utilized xylose- or glucose-derived carbon, suggesting that highly diverse facul- tative aerobes and obligate anaerobes contribute to the flow of carbon in the fen under anoxic conditions.

Með þróun á aðferðafræði sameindalíffræðinnar hafa komið fram mikilvægar aðferðir sem byggja á kjarnsýrumögnun (PCR). Þessi tækni hefur hjálpað vísindamönnum til að lýsa örverusamfélögum í náttúrunni betur en áður var unnt án þess að rækta eða einangra örverurnar. Aðferðirnar veita hinsvegar oft takmarkandi upplýsingar vegna aðstæðna við sýnatöku og ýmissa eðlis- og lífefnafræðilegra áhrifaþátta í þeim.

  • Genomic-Assisted Determination of the Natural Nutrient Requirements of The
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF H. James Tripp for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular and Cellular Biology presented on June 7, 2007. Title: Genomic-Assisted Determination of the Natural Nutrient Requirements of the Cosmopolitan Marine Bacterium ‘Candidatus Pelagibacter ubique’ Abstract approved: Stephen J. Giovannoni To identify factors limiting ‘Candidatus Pelagibacter ubique’ maximum cell density and growth rate in pure culture on seawater, the genome sequence of ‘Cand. P. ubique’ was analyzed, culturing experiments with organic and inorganic nutrient additions were made, and radiotracer uptake experiments were performed. The genome was sequenced, custom data mining tools were developed, and all major biosynthetic and energy pathways were reconstructed from a genome annotation. Analysis of the genomic data suggested ‘Cand. P. ubique’ might be limited by the availability of reduced sulfur, since genes cysDNCHIJ, used for assimilatory sulfate reduction, were missing. When reduced sulfur in the form of 3-dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), methionine, or cysteine was added to filtered, autoclaved seawater containing all other nutrients in excess, maximum cell yield increased an order of magnitude. But, increasing DMSP additions from 50 nM to 10 μM did not lead to higher cell densities at a normal growth rate; instead, cultures increased in cell density from 3.03 ± 106 cells ml-1 to 2.1 ± 107 cells ml-1, at a growth rate of 0.110 d-1 instead of 0.664 d-1. An additional hypothesis was that, due to the inefficiency with which threonine degradation to glycine compensates for missing serBC genes, and the presence of a glycine-activated riboswitch on malate synthase, the growth rate using DMSP as a sole sulfur source would be improved by addition of glycine betaine because glycine can be used as a methyl acceptor to regenerate methyl carriers needed to demethylate DMSP.

To overcome this, we analyzed a dataset of 200 single-copy and conserved 23 genes and employed diverse strategies to reduce compositional artefacts. Such 24 strategies include using novel dataset-specific profile mixture models and recoding 25 schemes, and removing sites, genes and taxa that are compositionally biased. We 26 show that the Rickettsiales and Holosporales (both groups of intracellular parasites of 27 eukaryotes) are not sisters to each other, but instead, the Holosporales has a derived 28 position within the Rhodospirillales.

From this layer four strains of spirilloid purple bacteria were isolated, all of which were extremely halophilic. All strains were isolated by using the same medium under halophilic photolithoheterotrophic conditions. One of them, strain SG 3105 was a purple non-sulfur bacterial strain closely related to Rhodovibrio sodomensis with a 16S rDNA sequence similarity of 98?8 %. The three other isolated strains, SG 3301T, SG 3302 and SG 3304, were purple sulfur bacteria and were found to be very similar.
