Reliability for detecting composition and changes of microbial communities by T-RFLP genetic profiling

Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis is commonly used for profiling microbial communities in various environments. However, it may suffer from biases during the analytic process. This study addressed the potential of T-RFLP profiles (1) to reflect real community structures and diversities, as well as (2) to reliably detect changing components of microbial community structures. For this purpose, defined artificial communities of 30 SSU rRNA gene clones, derived from nine bacterial phyla, were used. PCR amplification efficiency was one primary bias with a maximum variability factor of 3.5 among clones. PCR downstream analyses such as enzymatic restriction and capillary electrophoresis introduced a maximum bias factor of 4 to terminal restriction fragment (T-RF) signal intensities, resulting in a total maximum bias factor of 14 in the final T-RFLP profiles. In addition, the quotient between amplification efficiency and T-RF size allowed predicting T-RF abundances in the profiles with high accuracy. Although these biases impaired detection of real community structures, the relative changes in structures and diversities were reliably reflected in the T-RFLP profiles. These data support the suitability of T-RFLP profiling for monitoring effects on microbial communities.

Wastewater treatment by alkali bacteria and dynamics of microbial communities in two bioreactors

In this study, an alkali bacterial consortium was obtained by enrichment cultivation and was used to treat printing and dyeing wastewater (PDW, pH 11-12). The treatment effects and dynamic changes were evaluated in a biocontact oxidation reactor (BOR) and a sequencing batch reactor (SBR). During 3 months of continuous operation, the two bioreactors had similar treatment efficiencies (polyvinyl alcohol, PVA, 74.5-81.3%; COD, 73.5-77.4%; 2.15 pH decreases). Molecular biological analysis indicated that the microbial communities underwent dramatic changes during the operation, in which the SBR was superior to the BOR in retaining the alkali bacteria at the start-up stage, however, the BOR seemed to be more advantageous when the frequently changing influents were considered. The bacterial communities in BOR and SBR were diverse and included Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and an unidentified cluster. Among these only Paracoccus sp. was successfully isolated and confirmed to have the ability to degrade PVA.     

Long-term cathode performance and the microbial communities that develop in microbial fuel cells fed different fermentation endproducts

To better understand how cathode performance and substrates affected communities that evolved in these reactors over long periods of time, microbial fuel cells were operated for more than 1 year with individual endproducts of lignocellulose fermentation (acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, or ethanol). Large variations in reactor performance were primarily due to the specific substrates, with power densities ranging from 835 ± 21 to 62 ± 1 mW/m³. Cathodes performance degraded over time, as shown by an increase in power of up to 26% when the cathode biofilm was removed, and 118% using new cathodes. Communities that developed on the anodes included exoelectrogenic families, such as Rhodobacteraceae, Geobacteraceae, and Peptococcaceae, with the Deltaproteobacteria dominating most reactors. Pelobacter propionicus was the predominant member in reactors fed acetic acid, and it was abundant in several other MFCs. These results provide valuable insights into the effects of long-term MFC operation on reactor performance.

Evaluation of past and potential phosphorus uptake at the Orlando Easterly Wetland

The Orlando Easterly Wetland (OEW), located near Christmas, Florida, USA, is among the longer-lived treatment wetlands in the United States. It was established in the late 1980s to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations from tertiary treated wastewater bound for the St. Johns River. A goal of 0.07 mg/l total phosphorus concentration has been set by the regulating agency (St. Johns River Water Management District). In order to understand and define the operating conditions for which this target could be met, a systematic study of historic phosphorus uptake was performed using a traditional first-order model. Phosphorus uptake performance is shown to correlate well with hydraulic performance for two parallel upstream cells. The first-order model is enhanced with predictive capabilities that acknowledge the correlation between the phosphorus uptake rate constant and the hydraulic loading rate observed in the system. Inherent limitations with the first-order modeling approach are addressed and uncertainty in model performance is used to bound predictions.     

Comparison of soil microbial communities inhabiting vineyards and native sclerophyllous forests in central Chile

Natural ecosystems provide services to agriculture such as pest control, soil nutrients, and key microbial components. These services and others in turn provide essential elements that fuel biomass productivity. Responsible agricultural management and conservation of natural habitats can enhance these ecosystem services. Vineyards are currently driving land‐use changes in many Mediterranean ecosystems. These land‐use changes could have important effects on the supporting ecosystems services related to the soil properties and the microbial communities associated with forests and vineyard soils. Here, we explore soil bacterial and fungal communities present in sclerophyllous forests and organic vineyards from three different wine growing areas in central Chile. We employed terminal restriction fragment length polymorphisms (T‐RFLP) to describe the soil microbial communities inhabiting native forests and vineyards in central Chile. We found that the bacterial community changed between the sampled growing areas; however, the fungal community did not differ. At the local scale, our findings show that fungal communities differed between habitats because fungi species might be more sensitive to land‐use change compared to bacterial species, as bacterial communities did not change between forests and vineyards. We discuss these findings based on the sensitivity of microbial communities to soil properties and land‐use change. Finally, we focus our conclusions on the importance of naturally derived ecosystem services to vineyards.     

若尔盖高寒湿地干湿土壤条件下微生物群落结构特征

土壤水分含量的空间异质性是引起湿地生态系统结构和功能空间变异的关键因素。目前有关低纬度高寒湿地土壤水分对微生物群落结构影响的研究较少。于2007年4月(冷季)和8月(暖季)采集若尔盖高寒湿地常年淹水和无淹水两种水分条件的土壤样品,利用磷脂脂肪酸方法分析其微生物群落结构。结果表明,土壤微生物总生物量、细菌生物量、革兰氏阳性细菌及革兰氏阴性细菌生物量均表现为常年淹水土壤高于无淹水土壤,且4月份高于8月份;与土壤通气量关系密切的真菌、放线菌,其生物量表现为无淹水土壤显著高于常年淹水土壤;反映群落组成的真菌:细菌磷脂脂肪酸比值也表现为无淹水土壤显著高于常年淹水土壤。磷脂脂肪酸的主成分分析表明,水分条件不同的两种土壤中微生物群落结构显著不同,季节变化并未引起土壤微生物群落结构的改变。     

Distinct microbial communities in the active and permafrost layers on the Tibetan Plateau

Permafrost represents an important understudied genetic resource. Soil microorganisms play important roles in regulating biogeochemical cycles and maintaining ecosystem function. However, our knowledge of patterns and drivers of permafrost microbial communities is limited over broad geographic scales. Using high‐throughput Illumina sequencing, this study compared soil bacterial, archaeal and fungal communities between the active and permafrost layers on the Tibetan Plateau. Our results indicated that microbial alpha diversity was significantly higher in the active layer than in the permafrost layer with the exception of fungal Shannon–Wiener index and Simpson's diversity index, and microbial community structures were significantly different between the two layers. Our results also revealed that environmental factors such as soil fertility (soil organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon and total nitrogen contents) were the primary drivers of the beta diversity of bacterial, archaeal and fungal communities in the active layer. In contrast, environmental variables such as the mean annual precipitation and total phosphorus played dominant roles in driving the microbial beta diversity in the permafrost layer. Spatial distance was important for predicting the bacterial and archaeal beta diversity in both the active and permafrost layers, but not for fungal communities. Collectively, these results demonstrated different driving factors of microbial beta diversity between the active layer and permafrost layer, implying that the drivers of the microbial beta diversity observed in the active layer cannot be used to predict the biogeographic patterns of the microbial beta diversity in the permafrost layer.

Molecular biomass and MetaTaxogenomic assessment of soil microbial communities as influenced by soil DNA extraction procedure

Three soil DNA extraction procedures (homemade protocols and commercial kit) varying in their practicability were applied to contrasting soils to evaluate their efficiency in recovering: (i) soil DNA and (ii) bacterial diversity estimated by 16S rDNA pyrosequencing. Significant differences in DNA yield were systematically observed between tested procedures. For certain soils, 10 times more DNA was recovered with one protocol than with the others. About 15 000 sequences of 16S rDNA were obtained for each sample which were clustered to draw rarefaction curves. These curves, as well as the PCA ordination of community composition based on OTU clustering, did not reveal any significant difference between procedures. Nevertheless, significant differences between procedures were highlighted by the taxonomic identification of sequences obtained at the phylum to genus levels. Depending on the soil, differences in the number of genera detected ranged from 1% to 26% between the most and least efficient procedures, mainly due to a poorer capacity to recover populations belonging to Actinobacteria, Firmicutes or Crenarchaeota. This study enabled us to rank the relative efficiencies of protocols for their recovery of soil molecular microbial biomass and bacterial diversity and to help choosing an appropriate soil DNA extraction procedure adapted to novel sequencing technologies.     

Change in microbial communities in acetate- and glucose-fed microbial fuel cells in the presence of light

Power densities produced by microbial fuel cells (MFCs) in natural systems are changed by exposure to light through the enrichment of photosynthetic microorganisms. When MFCs with brush anodes were exposed to light (4000 lx), power densities increased by 8–10% for glucose-fed reactors, and 34% for acetate-fed reactors. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) profiles based on the 16S rRNA gene showed that exposure to high light levels changed the microbial communities on the anodes. Based on 16S rRNA gene clone libraries of light-exposed systems the anode communities using glucose were also significantly different than those fed acetate. Dominant bacteria that are known exoelectrogens were identified in the anode biofilm, including a purple nonsulfur (PNS) photosynthetic bacterium, Rhodopseudomonas palustris, and a dissimilatory iron-reducing bacterium, Geobacter sulfurreducens. Pure culture tests confirmed that PNS photosynthetic bacteria increased power production when exposed to high light intensities (4000 lx). These results demonstrate that power production and community composition are affected by light conditions as well as electron donors in single-chamber air-cathode MFCs.

促淤等人为扰动对长江口滩涂湿地土壤微生物呼吸的影响

为阐明促淤和堤内农业生产对长江口滩涂湿地土壤微生物呼吸(SMR)的影响,在崇明东滩和九段沙湿地设置3个典型区域,研究了人为扰动和自然状况下湿地SMR的差异性,并通过分析不同类型湿地土壤的微生物活性和环境因子阐明了导致SMR差异的主要原因。结果显示,促淤区现有湿地SMR强度((0.41±0.22)mgCO·2g-·124h-1)高于自然状态区((0.07±0.02)mgCO·2g-·124h-1),且差异达到了极显著水平(P0.01);堤内不同农业生产模式导致的施肥强度差异对堤外湿地SMR也有一定影响。通径分析表明,促淤等人为扰动状态下湿地土壤微生物活性增强是导致其SMR较高的主要原因,其中土壤原核微生物多样性指数及蔗糖酶活性与SMR强度的关联性尤为显著。而促淤与堤内化肥施用所引起的已有滩涂湿地土壤环境条件的改变,特别是土壤含水量下降和无机氮含量增高是导致其微生物活性发生改变的重要原因。总体而言,促淤和堤内高强度施肥的农业生产模式一定程度上会增强堤外现有滩涂湿地的SMR,从而弱化其碳汇功能。     

Dynamic variations of microbial community structure in Myriophyllum aquaticum constructed wetlands in response to different NH4+-N concentrations

Constructed wetlands (CWs) have received increasing attentions for their N removal performances, especially regarding NH₄⁺-N. Different influent NH₄⁺-N concentration may influence N removal efficiency in practice, while the effects of different NH₄⁺-N concentrations on microorganisms removing N in CWs are poorly understood. In this study, surface flow CWs planted with Myriophyllum (M). aquaticum were established to investigate the influences of different NH₄⁺-N concentrations on the composition, structure, and interactions of microbial community. Our findings suggested 105 mg/L NH₄⁺-N CWs achieved highest N removal rate, removing 89.30 % NH₄⁺-N and 92.34 % TN from the influent. The results of real-time quantitative polymerase chain reactions (qPCR) indicated abundances of nitrifying genes (nxrA) and denitrifying genes (narG, nirS, nirK, and nosZ) were increased by increasing NH₄⁺-N concentrations, and the strongest effects were observed in narG (8-fold) and nosZ genes (11-fold). Different NH₄⁺-N concentrations was proved to alter composition and structure of microbial communities via high-throughput sequencing, e.g. denitrifiers including Brevendomonas.sp, Dokdonella.sp and Rhodococcus.sp were enriched obviously with increasing NH₄⁺-N concentrations. In addition, network showed interactions among microbial populations and positive interactions were dramatically shifted and enhanced by increasing NH₄⁺-N concentrations.
