基于宏基因组学解析不同质量等级中温大曲微生物组的异质性

【目的】中温大曲是浓香型白酒酿造中的糖化发酵剂和生香剂，目前其质量评价主要依赖于感官和理化特征。已有研究采用扩增子测序初步探索了大曲质量等级与微生物群落组成之间的关联性，但是微生物群落功能对大曲质量的影响尚缺乏深入研究。【方法】本研究采用宏基因组学解析和对比了不同质量等级大曲的微生物群落组成和潜在功能的差异，结合理化性质，聚焦分析了酶活、乳酸和乙酸代谢相关的关键酶基因丰度。【结果】两种等级大曲的真菌群落组成差异显著。一级大曲含有更高相对丰度的丝状真菌，主要分布在曲霉属(Aspergillus, 21.6%)、罗萨氏菌属(Rasamsonia, 6.8%)、拟青霉属(Paecilomyces, 5.0%)和篮状菌属(Talaromyces, 4.4%)等。一级大曲中与环境信息处理和细胞过程相关途径的基因相对丰度普遍显著高于二级大曲。一级大曲中薄层菌属(Hymenobacter)和曲霉属等提供了更高基因丰度的α-淀粉酶，使其具有显著较高的液化力。二级大曲则含有更高相对丰度的横梗霉属(Lichtheimia, 11.8%)、根霉属(Rhizopus, 13.4%)和毕赤酵母属(Pichia, 7.2%)以及乳酸菌类微生物，如伴生乳杆菌属(Companilactobacillus)、魏斯氏菌属(Weissella)和黏液乳杆菌属(Limosilactobacillus)等。二级大曲中与代谢相关途径的基因相对丰度显著较高，如碳水化合物代谢、能量代谢和核苷酸代谢等。二级大曲中较多的乳酸菌类群有利于提高乙醇脱氢酶基因丰度，同时，糖多孢菌属(Saccharopolyspora)、葡萄球菌属(Staphylococcus)、曲霉属和高温放线菌属(Thermoactinomyces)等提供了更多的羧酸酯酶基因丰度，分别使其具有较高的发酵力和酯化力。此外，二级大曲中较多的乳酸菌还可能产生更多的乳酸脱氢酶，降解乳酸，且更高基因丰度的乙酸代谢相关酶类可促进乙酸分解代谢，使得二级大曲酸度显著低于一级大曲。【结论】本研究在基因水平上研究了不同质量等级大曲酶活和酸度差异的微生物基础，可为建立完善的大曲质量评价体系以及理性地调控群落功能提供理论支撑。     

不同熏蒸剂对草莓连作土壤养分和微生物群落的影响

【背景】草莓连年栽培导致土传病害问题突出,施用熏蒸剂进行土壤消毒因效果显著得以广泛应用。但不同熏蒸剂对土壤病原微生物的影响存在较大差异,同时对非靶标微生物和土壤理化性质也会有不同程度的影响。【目的】明确不同熏蒸剂对草莓连作土壤养分和土壤细菌、真菌群落结构的影响,为合理选择熏蒸剂提供科学依据。【方法】以连作土壤为材料设置5个处理：未熏蒸、石灰氮熏蒸、石灰熏蒸、棉隆熏蒸、威百亩熏蒸,测定熏蒸处理后土壤养分含量;采用PacBio测序平台分析土壤微生物多样性的变化。【结果】石灰氮和威百亩处理均增加了碱解氮含量,降低了有机质、有效磷和速效钾含量;棉隆处理土壤中各养分含量均增加;石灰处理除有机质含量增加外,碱解氮、有效磷和速效钾含量均降低;棉隆、石灰和威百亩处理显著降低pH值。5个处理草莓连作土壤样本中获得了1 164个细菌OTU和444个真菌OTU。细菌多样性和丰富度分析发现,4种熏蒸剂处理均增加了土壤细菌群落的丰富度,石灰氮、石灰和威百亩处理增加了土壤细菌菌落的多样性。4种熏蒸剂处理真菌菌落的丰富度低于对照;石灰、棉隆处理真菌菌落的多样性高于对照和石灰氮、威百亩处理低于对照,但差异不显著。在物种组成分析中,从门水平看,变形菌门(Proteobacteria)和芽单胞菌门(Gemmatimonadetes)为优势细菌门;与对照相比,石灰氮、石灰、棉隆处理变形菌门相对丰度增高,威百亩处理相对丰度降低。4种处理均降低了芽单胞菌门的相对丰度。其他门类中,4种处理均增加了浮霉菌门(Planctomycetota)、疣微菌门(Verrucomicrobia)的相对丰度。优势细菌群落分析表明土壤熏蒸减少了芽单胞菌属(Gemmatimonas)、藤黄单胞菌属(Luteimonas)、中慢生根瘤菌属(Mesorhizobium)等细菌的相对丰度,增加了噬几丁质菌属(Chitinophaga)、苍白杆菌属(Ochrobactrum)的相对丰度。子囊菌门(Ascomycota)为优势真菌,石灰氮、石灰、棉隆、威百亩4种处理均增加了子囊菌门的相对丰度。另外还检测到引起草莓根部土传病害的枝孢属(Cladosporium)和镰刀菌属(Fusarium)病菌,熏蒸处理后均降低了枝孢属和镰刀菌属的相对丰度,其中枝孢属在石灰氮、石灰、棉隆、威百亩处理中分别降低了1.35%、1.11%、0.90%和1.31%,镰刀菌属分别降低了0.71%、0.85%、0.19%和0.65%,但差异不显著。4种土壤熏蒸剂均增加了有益真菌毛壳菌属(Chaetomium)的相对丰度。【结论】采用熏蒸剂处理连作土壤改变了微生物群落构成,减少或灭杀土壤中的大部分致病菌属,起到有效防治草莓土传病害的作用,但不能灭杀所有病菌,而且对有益菌和土壤理化性质有不同程度的影响,因此处理后补充有益微生物非常关键。根据对病原菌的灭杀效果,石灰氮、威百亩处理的效果优于其他处理,可作为轮换施用的熏蒸剂,本试验条件下,棉隆是一种弱的处理剂。

Main airborne Ascomycota spores: characterization by culture, spore morphology, ribosomal DNA sequences and enzymatic analysis

The aim of this work was to identify the main allergy-related Ascomycetes fungal spores present in the atmosphere of Porto, using different and complementary techniques. The atmospheric sampling, performed in the atmosphere of Porto (Portugal) from August 2006 to July 2008, indicated Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus and Alternaria as the main fungal spore taxa. Alternaria and Cladosporium peaks were registered during summer. Aspergillus and Penicillium highest values were registered from late winter to early spring. Additionally, the Andersen sampler allowed the culture and isolation of the collected viable spores subsequently used for different identification approaches. The internal-transcribed spacer region of the nuclear ribosomal repeat unit sequences of airborne Ascomycetes fungi isolates revealed 11 taxonomically related fungal species. Among the identified taxa, Penicillum and Aspergillus presented the highest diversity, while only one species of Cladosporium and Alternaria, respectively, were identified. All selected fungal spore taxa possessed phosphatase, esterase, leucine arylamidase and β-glucosidase enzymatic activity, while none had lipase, cystine arylamidase, trypsin or β-glucuronidase activity. The association between the spore cell wall morphology, DNA-based techniques and enzymatic activity approaches allowed a more reliable identification procedure of the airborne Ascomycota fungal spores.     

Diversity and spatial–temporal distribution of airborne fungi at the world culture heritage site Maijishan Grottoes in China

The deposition of the airborne microorganisms onto cultural heritage is associated closely with the subsequent biodeterioration. In this study, a systematic investigation was carried out to detect the seasonal variation and diversity of airborne fungal concentration at the World Cultural Heritage Site Maijishan Grottoes in western China. A bio-aerosol sampler was deployed to collect samples over four seasons in 2016. The culturable airborne fungi were isolated, purified and then identified with the extraction of genomic DNA, PCR amplification of ITS rRNA region, sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis. The concentrations of culturable fungi ranged from 216 to 1389 CFU/m³, which varied seasonally with significant differences among the sampling sites. Fifteen different fungal genera were confirmed, among them, Cladosporium was the most predominant fungal genus, followed by Penicillium. The fungal community structure and their relationship with environmental factors were also delineated. The spatial–temporal differences of airborne fungi at Maijishan Grottoes were mainly due to height, rainfall, relative humidity, and temperature. The dominant genera Cladosporium and Penicillium may pose potential threats to the ancient painted sculptures and murals, and monitoring of the airborne fungi at such a heritage site could provide supporting data for the pre-warning and control of fungal outbreaks inside the caves for better management.

     

Molecular characterization of airborne fungi in caves of the Mogao Grottoes, Dunhuang, China

In this study, we analyzed air samples collected from several sites within the Mogao Grottoes, Dunhuang, China. The samples were collected each month from September 2008 to August 2009 from an open cave (OC), a semi-open cave (SC), a closed cave (CC), and the entrance (EN) of the Mogao Grottoes. Sampling was carried out using a six-stage Andersen FA-I sampler; then samples were cultured and fungal isolates were identified by partial sequencing of their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. Eleven different fungal genera were found, and the most prevalent was Cladosporium, followed by Fusarium, Penicillium, Alternaria, and Aspergillus. The fungal community composition varied among the four sites. Fungal community structure was significantly related to site (r = −0.293, p = 0.039) and to time of year (r = −0.523, p = 0.000). The concentrations and abundance of airborne fungi varied greatly throughout the year at the four sampling sites. Meteorological parameters (e.g., temperature, relative humidity) and the number of visitors also influenced both abundance and community structure of airborne fungi in the Mogao Grottoes.     

Airborne fungi associated with ornamental plant propagation in greenhouses

The objective was to determine potential exposure to airborne fungi in greenhouses and to characterize the temporal patterns of airborne fungi in relation to environmental conditions. We analyzed air samples collected in two greenhouses. Results showed that the top 5 fungi in greenhouse 1 were Trichoderma, hyphal fragments, Aspergillus/Penicillium-like, Cladosporium, and Botrytis in a descending order. Those in greenhouse 2 were Aspergillus/Penicillium-like, Cladosporium, Botrytis, yeast-like, and hyphal fragments. Maximum concentrations of Trichoderma and total spores in greenhouse 1 were 36,426 and 49,729 spores/m³, respectively. Maximum concentrations of Aspergillus/Penicillium and total spores in greenhouse 2 were 46,961 and 71,037 spores/m³, respectively. Airborne fungal populations fluctuated dramatically within 2 h during work hours, tenfold for Aspergillus/Penicillium, 66-fold for Trichoderma, and sevenfold for total spores. QPCR detected Trichoderma harzianum ranging from 7 to 3,500 conidia E/m³. Aspergillus/Penicillium and Botrytis showed diurnal patterns, but not Trichoderma. Aspergillus/Penicillium and Cladosporium were positively correlated with temperature, relative humidity, dew point, heat index, and light and negatively with air movement and air pressure. Botrytis and Trichoderma were not correlated with the environmental factors. Greenhouse workers were potentially exposed up to 71,037 spores/m³ of airborne fungi.

Airborne fungal spore distribution in Bangkok,Thailand: correlation with meteorological variables and sensitization in allergic rhinitis patients

Information about airborne fungal spore is crucial for health risk assessment and management, especially for patients with allergy and asthma. Nonetheless, such data are rarely available from certain areas of the world, including Southeast Asia. The aim of this study was to gain updated information about airborne fungal spore in Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand. A survey was conducted at five sampling sites in Bangkok, using the Rotorod Sampler^® for a period of 1 year. High concentrations of spores were found all year with the peak between August and November. The most prominent spore types were Cladosporium, Nigrospora, Puccinia, Aspergillus/Penicillium, and Fusarium. The spore concentrations were positively and significantly correlated with the amount of rainfall and relative humidity, reaching the maximum level in September. Sensitization rates to Cladosporium, Penicillium, and Aspergillus among Thai atopic patients were approximately 16.6, 13.6, and 13.0%, respectively.     

Fertile fungal spores collected on different faced surfaces in the atmosphere of Giza,Egypt

A quantitative and qualitative survey was carried out for airborne fungus spores coming into contact with horizontally and vertically gravitation sampling oriented surfaces in the atmosphere of Giza city. Czapek Dox agar, malt extract agar, potato dextrose agar and Sabouraud dextrose agar Petri dishes were exposed monthly to the five oriented surfaces of a polystyrene cube, throughout a one-year period. Significant differences (P < 0.01) were observed between the total counts of caught airborne fungi contacting with the horizontal compared to other vertically oriented surfaces. Conversely, there were no significant differences observed between the total catch of airborne fungi using the various sampling media. The results revealed that vertical sampling provides valuable information that may be lost from horizontal sampling alone. A total of 5,053 colonies belonging to 40 fungal organisms were identified. Alternaria (24.26%), Aspergillus (19.2%), Cladosporium (14.5%) and Penicillium (11.43%) were the most predominant fungal genera. Collected fungi were grouped into high, medium, low and rare components depending upon their frequency in the studied atmosphere. Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus parasiticus, Alternaria, Cladosporium and Penicillium were regularly found on all oriented surfaces. However, Arthrobotrys, Biospora, Chaetomium, Pleospora, Trichothecium and Verticillium were rarely found in the air. Positive and/or negative correlations were observed between the total fungal counts and the predominant fungal types with meteorological parameters during sampling days.

大量的稀土-重金属通过尾矿坝的浮尘、地表径流和渗滤液排放到周边土壤中,影响了土壤中的微生物群落结构。【目的】分析稀土和重金属复合污染土壤真菌群落结构并分离具有同时吸附稀土和重金属的菌株。【方法】本研究基于ITS基因,采用Illumina-Hiseq测序技术分析了包头稀土尾矿坝周边5份稀土-重金属污染土壤样品和距尾矿区20 km的1份相对未受污染的土壤样品的真菌群落特征,同时采用富集培养法从污染样品中筛选出金属耐性真菌,并对其进行吸附稀土-重金属的特性分析。【结果】群落结构为:在门水平,除了未分类门真菌(unclassified Fungi)外,子囊菌门(Ascomycota)真菌在所有土壤中占比较大(13.5%–90.5%);在纲水平上,除了未分类纲真菌外,粪壳菌纲(Sordariomycetes)真菌在B2 (73.1%)、B3 (28.4%)和B4 (20.8%)的丰度显著高于对照样点C (7.4%),而座囊菌纲(Dothideomycetes)在B5 (11.8%)的丰度明显高于B1 (3.5%);在属水平,除了未分类属,足孢子虫属(Podospora)是C(0.9%)和B3(23.6%)样点的优势种。曲霉属(Aspergillus)、未分类的格孢腔菌目(unclassified Pleosporales)和未分类的戴维迪科(unclassified Davidiellaceae)分别为B1 (3.0%)、B4 (10.5%)和B5(5.8%)的优势种,而蜡蚧属(Lecanicillium)真菌只在B2样点土壤存在且占优(51.6%)。Zn污染对真菌群落结构的影响大于稀土元素污染,且其浓度与优势的未分类真菌相对丰度呈负相关。从污染样品中共分离出6株真菌,它们分属于曲霉属(Aspergillus)(5株)和镰刀霉菌属(Fusarium)(1株)。所有分离菌株对镧(La~(3+))的吸附率均显著高于锌(Zn~(2+)),其中Aspergillus sp. B6-3对La~(3+)和锌Zn~(2+)的吸附率最高,分别为19.7%和3.9%。【结论】该研究为利用真菌去除稀土和重金属以优化生物吸附过程导向的环境生物修复和保护策略提供了机制基础。     

Occurrence of fungal spores in the respiratory tract and homes of patients with positive skin test to fungi

The occurrence of fungal spores in the upper respiratory tract and in the homes of 86 patients with allergic manifestations and positive skin tests for fungi has been investigated.Alternaria tenuis andCladosporium herbarum have been more frequently found to give positive reactions, followed byAspergillus mix,Candida albicans andPenicillium notatum. Cladosporium andAlternaria represented also the most common moulds isolated from nasal specimens. The prevalent fungi isolated from patients' environments wereCladosporium, Penicillium andAlternaria, occurring respectively in 93%, 78% and 72% of the homes sampled. An examination of individual cases have revealed a surprisingly close correlation, in 47 out of 86 patients, between positive skin test response and presence in high amount of the same fungi in patient's respiratory tract and home. In the majority of cases the fungi involved wereAlternaria and/orCladosporium.
