We present here a high-quality draft genome of Rfx. antarcticus strain ANT.BRT, isolated from an Antarctic microbial mat. The circular chromosome (3.8 Mbp) of Rfx. antarcticus has a 59.1% guanine + cytosine (GC) content and contains 4036 open reading frames. In addition, the bacterium contains a sizable plasmid (198.6 kbp, 48.4% GC with 226 open reading frames) that comprises about 5% of the total genetic content. Surprisingly, genes encoding light-harvesting complexes 1 and 3 (LH1 and LH3), but not light-harvesting complex 2 (LH2), were identified in the photosynthesis gene cluster of the Rfx. antarcticus genome, a feature that is unique among purple phototrophs. Consistent with physiological studies that showed a strong capacity for nitrogen fixation in Rfx. antarcticus, a nitrogen fixation gene cluster encoding a molybdenum-type nitrogenase was present, but no alternative nitrogenases were identified despite the cold-active phenotype of this phototroph. Genes encoding two forms of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase were present in the Rfx. antarcticus genome, a feature that likely provides autotrophic flexibility under varying environmental conditions. Lastly, genes for assembly of both type IV pili and flagella are present, with the latter showing an unusual degree of clustering.

  • Enrichment of Beneficial Cucumber Rhizosphere Microbes Mediated By

Horticulture Research (2020) 7:154 Horticulture Research https://doi.org/10.1038/s41438-020-00380-3 www.nature.com/hortres ARTICLE Open Access Enrichment of beneficial cucumber rhizosphere microbes mediated by organic acid secretion Tao Wen1,JunYuan1, Xiaoming He2,YueLin2,QiweiHuang1 andQirongShen 1 Abstract Resistant cultivars have played important roles in controlling Fusarium wilt disease, but the roles of rhizosphere interactions among different levels of resistant cultivars are still unknown. Here, two phenotypes of cucumber, one resistant and one with increased susceptibility to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cucumerinum (Foc), were grown in the soil and hydroponically, and then 16S rRNA gene sequencing and nontargeted metabolomics techniques were used to investigate rhizosphere microflora and root exudate profiles. Relatively high microbial community evenness for the Foc-susceptible cultivar was detected, and the relative abundances of Comamonadaceae and Xanthomonadaceae were higher for the Foc-susceptible cultivar than for the other cultivar. FishTaco analysis revealed that specific functional traits, such as protein synthesis and secretion, bacterial chemotaxis, and small organic acid metabolism pathways, were significantly upregulated in the rhizobacterial community of the Foc-susceptible cultivar. A machine- learning approach in conjunction with FishTaco plus metabolic pathway analysis revealed that four organic acids (citric acid, pyruvate acid, succinic acid, and fumarate) were released at higher abundance by the Foc-susceptible cultivar compared with the resistant cultivar, which may be responsible for the recruitment of Comamonadaceae, a potential beneficial microbial group. Further validation demonstrated that Comamonadaceae can be “cultured” by these organic acids. Together, compared with the resistant cultivar, the susceptible cucumber tends to assemble beneficial microbes by secreting more organic acids.

Downflow hanging sponge (DHS) reactors were used under aerobic and open conditions to investigate the potential for MnOB enrichment. The results of an experiment that required a continuous supply of organic feed solution containing Mn(II) demonstrated that MnOB enrichment and Mn(II) removal were unsuccessful in the DHS reactor when plain sponge cubes were used.

Strain AR20T grew optimally at pH 7.0‒8.0 and 25°C. It contained Q-8 as the pre- dominant ubiquinone and C16:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c and/or iso-C15:02OH), and C18:1ω7c as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 67.1 mol%. A neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree revealed that strain AR20T clustered with three type strains of the genus Hydrogenophaga (H. flava, H. bisanensis and H. pseudoflava). Strain AR20T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 95.8‒97.7% to the type strains of the genus Hydrogenophaga. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain AR20T is considered a novel species of the genus Hydrogenophaga, for which the name Hydrogenophaga electricum sp. nov. is pro- posed. The type strain is AR20T (= KCTC 32195T = NBRC 109341T). Key Words—Hydrogenophaga electricum; hydrogenotrophic exoelectrogen; microbial fuel cell Introduction the MFC was analyzed.

The bacterial community of a polyhumic lake, Mekkojärvi, was studied using DNA techniques and phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis during the mid-summer period of water column strati- fication. According to the 16S rRNA gene clone libraries and length heterogeneity analysis (LH-PCR), heterotrophic bacteria dominated only in the oxic epilimnion, in which various Actinobacteria (mostly cluster acI-B) and Betaproteobacteria (especially Poly- nucleobacter subcluster PnecC) were common. Se- quences assigned to heterotrophic, methylotrophic, photoautotrophic, and chemoautotrophic genera were all abundant in the oxic-anoxic boundary layer. Methylobacter and Methylophilus were dominant Mekkojärvi, in southern Finland, is one of countless small, genera among methylotrophic bacteria.

All PLFA- profiles were dominated by 16 monounsaturated fatty INTRODUCTION acids typical of Gram-negative bacteria, whereas iso- and anteiso-branched PLFAs typical of Actinobacteria Microbial foodwebs of humic (dystrophic) lakes were present only in minor proportions.
