Bacterial diversity of the Inner Mongolian Baer Soda Lake as revealed by 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses

Bacterial diversity associated with Baer Soda Lake in Inner Mongolia of China was investigated using a culture-independent method. Bacterial 16S rRNA gene libraries were generated using bacterial oligonucleotide primers, and 16S rRNA gene sequences of 58 clones were analyzed phylogenetically. The library was dominated by 16S rDNAs of Gram-negative bacteria (24% -Proteobacteria, 31% -Proteobacteria, 33% -Proteobacteria, and 2% -Proteobacteria), with a lower percentage of clones corresponding to Gram-positive bacteria. Forty cloned sequences were similar to that of known bacterial isolates (>97% sequence similarity), represented by the species of the genera Brevundimonas, Comamonas, Alcaligenes, Stenotrophomonas, and Klebsiella. Eighteen cloned sequences showed less affiliation with known taxa (<97% sequence similarity) and may represent novel taxa.Communicated by K. Horikoshi     

Molecular phylogenetic diversity of bacteria associated with the leachate of a closed municipal solid waste landfill

A 16S rDNA-based molecular study was performed to determine the nature of the bacterial constituents of the leachate from a closed municipal solid waste landfill. Total community DNA was extracted and bacterial 16S rRNA genes were subsequently amplified and cloned. Recombinant rDNA clones in the library were randomly selected, and they were sequenced for a single run and then grouped. A total of 76 sequence types representing 138 randomly selected nonchimeric clones were identified. Full-length sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the sequence types revealed that more than 90% of the screened clones were affiliated with low-G+C gram-positive bacteria (38.4%), Proteobacteria (35.5%), the Cytophaga Flexibacter Bacteroides group (11.6%), and Spirochaetes (5.1%). Minor portions were affiliated with Verrucomicrobia (2.9%), candidate division OP11 (2.2%), and the green nonsulfur bacteria, Cyanobacteria and the Deinococcus Thermus group (each <1.0%). Although some rDNA sequences clustered with genera or taxa that were classically identified within anaerobic treatment systems and expected with known functions, a substantial fraction of the clone sequences showed relatively low levels of similarity with any other reported rDNA sequences and thus were derived from unknown taxa. These results suggest that bacterial communities in landfill environment are far more complex than previously expected and remain largely unexplored.     

Genetic diversity of attached bacteria in the hindgut of the deposit-feeding shrimp Neotrypaea (formerly Callianassa) californiensis (decapoda: thalassinidae)

Microbial colonization of marine invertebrate guts is widespread, but in general the roles that these bacteria play in the nutrition of their hosts are unknown. To examine the diversity and potential nutritional roles of hindgut microbiota in a deposit feeder, PCR-amplified 16S rRNA genes were cloned from the bacterial community attached to the hindguts of the thalassinid shrimp Neotrypaea californiensis exposed to different feeding treatments. Partial 16S rDNA sequences were analyzed for 30 clones for three shrimp per treatment for a total of 270 clones. No effects of host starvation or high-protein diets were apparent on hindgut bacterial community composition. Diversity analyses indicated high variability between bacterial communities in individual shrimp hindguts, but partial 16S rDNA sequences revealed remarkable species-level similarity (>98%) within clusters of sequences from the different shrimp hindguts, and many sequences from different shrimp hindguts were identical. Sequences belonged to three main groups of bacteria: Cytophaga-Flavobacteria-Bacteroides (CFB), proteobacteria, and gram-positives. Of the 270 sequences, 40% belonged to the alpha-proteobacteria, > or = 5% each to the gamma- and epsilon -proteobacteria, and > or =20% each to the gram-positive and CFB groups. All except one sequence are novel with < or = 95% sequence similarity to known genes. Despite weak similarity to known taxa,about 75% of the sequences were most closely related to known symbiotic and sedimentary bacteria. The bacteria in shrimp hindguts represent new species that have not yet been en-countered in other environments, and gut environments may be a rich source of the difficult-to-culture and novel components of marine bacterial diversity.     

Bacterial diversity in permanently cold and alkaline ikaite columns from Greenland

Bacterial diversity in alkaline (pH 10.4) and permanently cold (4°C) ikaite tufa columns from the Ikka Fjord, SW Greenland, was investigated using growth characterization of cultured bacterial isolates with Terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) and sequence analysis of bacterial 16S rRNA gene fragments. More than 200 bacterial isolates were characterized with respect to pH and temperature tolerance, and it was shown that the majority were cold-active alkaliphiles. T-RFLP analysis revealed distinct bacterial communities in different fractions of three ikaite columns, and, along with sequence analysis, it showed the presence of rich and diverse bacterial communities. Rarefaction analysis showed that the 109 sequenced clones in the 16S rRNA gene library represented between 25 and 65% of the predicted species richness in the three ikaite columns investigated. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed many sequences with similarity to alkaliphilic or psychrophilic bacteria, and showed that 33% of the cloned sequences and 33% of the cultured bacteria showed less than 97% sequence identity to known sequences in databases, and may therefore represent yet unknown species.

Application of rDNA-PCR amplification and DGGE fingerprinting for detection of microbial diversity in a Malaysian crude oil

Two culture-independent methods, namely ribosomal DNA libraries and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), were adopted to examine the microbial community of a Malaysian light crude oil. In this study, both 16S and 18S rDNAs were PCR-amplified from bulk DNA of crude oil samples, cloned, and sequenced. Analyses of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and phylogenetics clustered the 16S and 18S rDNA sequences into seven and six groups, respectively. The ribosomal DNA sequences obtained showed sequence similarity between 90 to 100% to those available in the GenBank database. The closest relatives documented for the 16S rDNAs include member species of Thermoincola and Rhodopseudomonas, whereas the closest fungal relatives include Acremonium, Ceriporiopsis, Xeromyces, Lecythophora, and Candida. Others were affiliated to uncultured bacteria and uncultured ascomycete. The 16S rDNA library demonstrated predomination by a single uncultured bacterial type by >80% relative abundance. The predomination was confirmed by DGGE analysis.     

Species diversity of magnetotactic bacteria from the Ol’khovka River, Russia

A fraction of magnetotactic bacteria was isolated by magnetic separation from the water and silt samples collected from the Ol’khovka River (Kislovodsk, Russia). A 16S rRNA clone library was obtained from the total DNA of the fraction by PCR amplification and molecular cloning. Phylogenetic analysis of 67 16S rRNA gene sequences of randomly selected clones demonstrated that two phylotypes of magnetotactic bacteria were present in the library: the first phylotype consisted of 42 sequences and the second one included only one sequence. The remaining 24 sequences belonged to non-magnetotactic bacteria. According to the results of phylogenetic analysis, both phylotypes were magnetotactic cocci; the predominant sequences were almost identical to the 16S rRNA sequence of the freshwater coccus TB24 (X81185.1) identified earlier among the magnetotactic bacteria isolated from Lake Chiemsee (Bavaria). The phylotype represented by a single sequence formed a separate branch in the dendrogram, with 97% similarity between its sequence and that of TB24. The discovered phylotypes formed with the sequences of uncultured freshwater magnetotactic cocci a separate branch within the class Alphaproteobacteria and presumably belonged to a separate family within the recently described order Magnetococcales. Despite the fact that phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA clone library did not reveal any phylotypes of magnetotactic spirilla, after the secondary enrichment of the fraction of magnetotactic bacteria using the “race track” technique, a new strain of magnetotactic spirilla, Magnetospirillum SO-1, was isolated. The closest relative of strain SO-1 was the previously described magnetotactic spirillum Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1.
