Validation of the Asaim Framework and Its Workflows on HMP Mock Community Samples
Validation of the ASaiM framework and its workflows on HMP mock community samples The ASaiM framework and its workflows have been tested and validated on two mock metagenomic data of an artificial community (with 22 known microbial strains). The datasets are available on EBI metagenomics database (project accession number: SRP004311). First we checked that the targeted abundances (based on number of PCR product) from both mock datasets were similar to the effective abundance (by mapping reads on reference genomes). Second, taxonomic and functional results produced by the ASaiM framework have been extensively analyzed and compared to expectations and to results obtained with the EBI metagenomics pipeline (S. Hunter et al. 2014). For these datasets, the ASaiM framework produces accurate and precise taxonomic assignations, different functional results (gene families, pathways, GO slim terms) and results combining taxonomic and functional information. Despite almost 1.4 million of raw metagenomic sequences, these analyses were executed in less than 6h on a commodity computer. Hence, the ASaiM framework and its workflows are proven to be relevant for the analysis of microbiota datasets. 1Data On EBI metagenomics database, two mock community samples for Human Microbiome Project (HMP) are available. Both samples contain a genomic mixture of 22 known microbial strains. Relative abundance of each strain has been targeted using the number of PCR product of their respective 16S sequences (Table 1). In first sample (SRR072232), the targeted 16S copies of the strains vary by up to four orders of magnitude between the strains (Table 1), whereas in second sample (SRR072233) the same 16S copy number is targeted for each strain (Table 1). -

Global development and human activity have led to an increase in aridity, resulting in ecosystem degradation and desertification around the world. The objective of the present work was to investigate and compare the microbial community structure and geochemical characteristics of two geographically distinct saline pan sediments in the Kalahari Desert of southern Africa. Our data suggest that these microbial communities have been shaped by geochemical drivers, including water content, salinity, and the supply of organic matter. -

Kyrpides4,5 and Hans-Peter Klenk1 Abstract Nakamurella lactea DLS-10T, isolated from rock in Korea, is one of the four type strains of the genus Nakamurella. In this study, we describe the high quality draft genome of N. lactea DLS-10T and its annotation. A summary of phenotypic data collected from previously published studies was also included. The genome of strain DLS-10T presents a size of 5.82 Mpb, 5100 protein coding genes, and a C + G content of 68.9%. Based on the genome analysis, emended description of N. lactea in terms of G + C content was also proposed.

Received: 13 November 2013; in revised form: 7 January 2014 / Accepted: 21 January 2014 / Published: 13 February 2014 Abstract: Actinomycetes are an important resource for the discovery of natural products with therapeutic properties. Bioprospecting for actinomycetes typically proceeds without a priori knowledge of the bacterial diversity present in sampled habitats. In this study, we endeavored to determine if overall bacterial diversity in marine sediments, as determined by 16S rDNA amplicon pyrosequencing, could be correlated with culturable actinomycete diversity, and thus serve as a powerful tool in guiding future bioprospecting efforts. Overall bacterial diversity was investigated in eight marine sediments from four sites in New Brunswick, Canada, resulting in over 44,000 high quality sequences (x̄ = 5610 per sample). Analysis revealed all sites exhibited significant diversity (H’ = 5.4 to 6.7). -

Abstract: Vineyard-living microbiota affect grapevine health and adaptation to changing environ- ments and determine the biological quality of soils that strongly influence wine quality. However, their abundance and interactions may be affected by vineyard management. The present study was conducted to assess whether the vineyard soil microbiome was altered by the use of biostimulants (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation vs. non-inoculated) and/or irrigation management (fully irrigated vs. half irrigated). Bacterial and fungal communities in vineyard soils were shaped by both time course and soil management (i.e., the use of biostimulants and irrigation). Regarding alpha diversity, fungal communities were more responsive to treatments, whereas changes in beta diversity were mainly recorded in the bacterial communities. Edaphic factors rarely influence bacte- rial and fungal communities. Microbial network analyses suggested that the bacterial associations Citation: Torres, N.; Yu, R.; Kurtural, were weaker than the fungal ones under half irrigation and that the inoculation with AMF led to S.K.

Altogether, the results Fungi and Irrigation Management highlight the need for more studies on the effect of management practices, especially the addition Shape the Bacterial and Fungal of AMF on cropping systems, to fully understand the factors that drive their variability, strengthen Communities and Networks in Vineyard Soils. -

Phenotypic and Microbial Influences on Dairy Heifer Fertility and Calf Gut Microbial Development
Phenotypic and microbial influences on dairy heifer fertility and calf gut microbial development Connor E. Owens Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Animal Science, Dairy Rebecca R. Cockrum Kristy M. Daniels Alan Ealy Katharine F. Knowlton September 17, 2020 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: microbiome, fertility, inoculation Phenotypic and microbial influences on dairy heifer fertility and calf gut microbial development Connor E. Owens ABSTRACT (Academic) Pregnancy loss and calf death can cost dairy producers more than $230 million annually. While methods involving nutrition, climate, and health management to mitigate pregnancy loss and calf death have been developed, one potential influence that has not been well examined is the reproductive microbiome. I hypothesized that the microbiome of the reproductive tract would influence heifer fertility and calf gut microbial development. The objectives of this dissertation were: 1) to examine differences in phenotypes related to reproductive physiology in virgin Holstein heifers based on outcome of first insemination, 2) to characterize the uterine microbiome of virgin Holstein heifers before insemination and examine associations between uterine microbial composition and fertility related phenotypes, insemination outcome, and season of breeding, and 3) to characterize the various maternal and calf fecal microbiomes and predicted metagenomes during peri-partum and post-partum periods and examine the influence of the maternal microbiome on calf gut development during the pre-weaning phase. In the first experiment, virgin Holstein heifers (n = 52) were enrolled over 12 periods, on period per month. On -3 d before insemination, heifers were weighed and the uterus was flushed. -

Hansen Animal Health & Nutrition, 2970 Hørsholm, Denmark * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 22 May 2020; Accepted: 7 June 2020; Published: 10 June 2020 Abstract: For approximately 10,000 years, cattle have been our major source of meat and dairy. However, cattle are also a major reservoir for dangerous foodborne pathogens that belong to the Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) group. Even though STEC infections in humans are rare, they are often lethal, as treatment options are limited. In cattle, STEC infections are typically asymptomatic and STEC is able to survive and persist in the cattle GIT by escaping the immune defenses of the host. Interactions with members of the native gut microbiota can favor or inhibit its persistence in cattle, but research in this direction is still in its infancy. Diet, temperature and season but also industrialized animal husbandry practices have a profound effect on STEC prevalence and the native gut microbiota composition. Thus, exploring the native cattle gut microbiota in depth, its interactions with STEC and the factors that affect them could offer viable solutions against STEC carriage in cattle. Keywords: cattle; STEC colonization; microbiota; bacterial interactions 1. Introduction The domestication of cattle, approximately 10,000 years ago [1], brought a stable supply of protein to the human diet, which was instrumental for the building of our societies.
