Comparative Analysis of the Intestinal Bacterial Community and Expression of Gut Immunity Genes in the Chinese Mitten Crab (Erio Dong et al. AMB Expr (2018) 8:192 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13568-018-0722-0 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Comparative analysis of the intestinal bacterial community and expression of gut immunity genes in the Chinese Mitten Crab (Eriocheir sinensis) Jing Dong1, Xiaodong Li1,2, Ruiyang Zhang1, Yingying Zhao1, Gaofeng Wu1, Jinling Liu1, Xiaochen Zhu1 and Lin Li1* Abstract Remarkably little information is available about the interaction between the gut microbiota and intestinal immunity in fsh and crustaceans. In our study, we used Illumina MiSeq sequencing and real-time quantitative PCR to compare the microbial community and immunity genes expression in the foregut, midgut and hindgut of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis). Our results indicated that the community richness of the midgut is higher than in the foregut or the hindgut, although the bacterial diversity in the hindgut is higher. The predominant phyla were Tenericutes and Firmicutes in the foregut, Tenericutes and Proteobacteria in the midgut and Proteobacteria, Tenericutes and Bacteroidetes in the hindgut. When compared with the midgut, the expression of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) were signifcantly elevated in the hindgut (P < 0.05), and the gene expression of EsRelish (IMD pathway) was higher than the Toll sign- aling pathway genes. Actinobacteria and Lactobacillus had negative correlationship with the expression of AMPs, although Acinetobacter, Bacteroides, Flavobacterium can up-regulate the expression of AMP genes. Collectively, our data indicate that microbiota are site-specifc within the digestive tracts of crabs and the bacterial community and intestinal immunity have a close relationship in E. sinensis.

  • Bacterial Communities of the Upper Respiratory Tract of Turkeys
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Bacterial communities of the upper respiratory tract of turkeys Olimpia Kursa1*, Grzegorz Tomczyk1, Anna Sawicka‑Durkalec1, Aleksandra Giza2 & Magdalena Słomiany‑Szwarc2 The respiratory tracts of turkeys play important roles in the overall health and performance of the birds. Understanding the bacterial communities present in the respiratory tracts of turkeys can be helpful to better understand the interactions between commensal or symbiotic microorganisms and other pathogenic bacteria or viral infections. The aim of this study was the characterization of the bacterial communities of upper respiratory tracks in commercial turkeys using NGS sequencing by the amplifcation of 16S rRNA gene with primers designed for hypervariable regions V3 and V4 (MiSeq, Illumina). From 10 phyla identifed in upper respiratory tract in turkeys, the most dominated phyla were Firmicutes and Proteobacteria. Diferences in composition of bacterial diversity were found at the family and genus level. At the genus level, the turkey sequences present in respiratory tract represent 144 established bacteria. Several respiratory pathogens that contribute to the development of infections in the respiratory system of birds were identifed, including the presence of Ornithobacterium and Mycoplasma OTUs. These results obtained in this study supply information about bacterial composition and diversity of the turkey upper respiratory tract. Knowledge about bacteria present in the respiratory tract and the roles they can play in infections can be useful in controlling, diagnosing and treating commercial turkey focks. Next-generation sequencing has resulted in a marked increase in culture-independent studies characterizing the microbiome of humans and animals1–6. Much of these works have been focused on the gut microbiome of humans and other production animals 7–11.

Ivanova1 Analysis of the increasing wealth of metagenomic data collected from diverse environments can lead to the discovery of novel branches on the tree of life. Here we analyse 5.2 Tb of metagenomic data collected globally to discover a novel bacterial phylum (‘Candidatus Kryptonia’) found exclusively in high-temperature pH-neutral geothermal springs. This lineage had remained hidden as a taxonomic ‘blind spot’ because of mismatches in the primers commonly used for ribosomal gene surveys. Genome reconstruction from metagenomic data combined with single-cell genomics results in several high-quality genomes representing four genera from the new phylum. Metabolic reconstruction indicates a heterotrophic lifestyle with conspicuous nutritional deficiencies, suggesting the need for metabolic complementarity with other microbes. Co-occurrence patterns identifies a number of putative partners, including an uncultured Armatimonadetes lineage. The discovery of Kryptonia within previously studied geothermal springs underscores the importance of globally sampled metagenomic data in detection of microbial novelty, and highlights the extraordinary diversity of microbial life still awaiting discovery. 1 Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute, Walnut Creek, California 94598, USA. 2 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta T2N 1N4, Canada.

  • Abstract Daughtry, Katheryne Virginia
    ABSTRACT DAUGHTRY, KATHERYNE VIRGINIA. Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Lactobacillus buchneri Strains Isolated from Spoiled Fermented Cucumber. (Under the direction of Dr. Rodolphe Barrangou and Dr. Suzanne D. Johanningsmeier). Lactobacillus buchneri is a facultative anaerobe and member of the lactic acid bacteria. L. buchneri has been isolated from various environments, but most commonly from decomposing plant material, such as silage and spoiled food products, including wine, beer, Swiss cheese, mayonnaise, and fermented cucumber. Recently, the metabolic pathway for the conversion of lactic acid to acetic acid and 1,2-propanediol was annotated in this species. Although this metabolic pathway is not common in most lactic acid bacteria, L. buchneri degrades lactate under various conditions. Lactic acid utilization in fermented cucumbers leads to a rise in pH, ultimately spoiling the product. In previous studies, strains of L. buchneri isolated from fermented cucumber spoiled displayed variation in colony morphologies. It was predicted the isolates were phenotypically and genotypically diverse, and that the abilities to degrade lactic acid may be strain specific. To examine this hypothesis, thirty-five L. buchneri cultures isolated from spoiled fermented cucumber and the type strain isolated from tomato pulp were characterized and unique strains were subjected to whole genome sequencing. Each isolate was genotypically and phenotypically characterized using 16S rDNA sequencing, DiversiLab® rep-PCR, colony morphology on MRS agar, carbohydrate profiling, growth rates in MRS media, and the ability to degrade lactic acid in a modified MRS medium. Great diversity in colony morphology revealed variations of color (ranging from opaque yellow to white), texture (brittle, viscous, or powdery), shape (umbonate, flat, circular, or irregular) and size (1 mm- 11mm).

The information suggests that these phytochemicals have potential as alternatives to the classical antibiotics currently used for the treatment of streptococcal infections. The phytochemicals demonstrate direct bactericidal or bacteriostatic effects, such as: (i) prevention of bacterial adherence to mucosal surfaces of the pharynx, skin, and teeth surface; (ii) inhibition of glycolytic enzymes and pH drop; (iii) reduction of biofilm and plaque formation; and (iv) cell surface hydrophobicity. Collectively, findings from numerous studies suggest that phytochemicals could be used as drugs for elimination of infections with minimal side effects.

Taxonomic position: Bacteria: Tenericutes: Mollicutes Common names: Stubborn, little leaf (English) Stubborn (French) Bayer computer code: SPIRCI EU Annex designation: II/A2 • Circulifer tenellus Name: Circulifer tenellus (Baker) Synonyms: Neoaliturus tenellus (Baker) Eutettix tenellus Baker Taxonomic position: Insecta: Hemiptera: Homoptera: Cicadellidae Common names: Beet leafhopper (English) Cicadelle de la betterave (French) Saltahojas de la remolacha (Spanish) Notes on taxonomy and nomenclature: Oman (1970) argues for the retention of Circulifer and Neoaliturus as separate genera; in his concept both tenellus and haematoceps are placed in Circulifer. Nast (1972) treats the two genera as Neoaliturus notwithstanding Oman's (1970) arguments for the retention of the two genera. He includes 17 species in the Palaearctic region of which 14 are recorded from the Mediterranean Basin. The two species, tenellus and haematoceps, are both included in Circulifer by della Giustina (1989), who reports that tenellus is confirmed in Corsica.
