Impact of cultivation on characterisation of species composition of soil bacterial communities

The species composition of culturable bacteria in Scottish grassland soils was investigated using a combination of Biolog and 16S rDNA analysis for characterisation of isolates. The inclusion of a molecular approach allowed direct comparison of sequences from culturable bacteria with sequences obtained during analysis of DNA extracted directly from the same soil samples. Bacterial strains were isolated on Pseudomonas isolation agar (PIA), a selective medium, and on tryptone soya agar (TSA), a general laboratory medium. In total, 12 and 21 morphologically different bacterial cultures were isolated on PIA and TSA, respectively. Biolog and sequencing placed PIA isolates in the same taxonomic groups, the majority of cultures belonging to the Pseudomonas (sensu stricto) group. However, analysis of 16S rDNA sequences proved more efficient than Biolog for characterising TSA isolates due to limitations of the Microlog database for identifying environmental bacteria. In general, 16S rDNA sequences from TSA isolates showed high similarities to cultured species represented in sequence databases, although TSA-8 showed only 92.5% similarity to the nearest relative, Bacillus insolitus. In general, there was very little overlap between the culturable and uncultured bacterial communities, although two sequences, PIA-2 and TSA-13, showed >99% similarity to soil clones. A cloning step was included prior to sequence analysis of two isolates, TSA-5 and TSA-14, and analysis of several clones confirmed that these cultures comprised at least four and three sequence types, respectively. All isolate clones were most closely related to uncultured bacteria, with clone TSA-5.1 showing 99.8% similarity to a sequence amplified directly from the same soil sample. Interestingly, one clone, TSA-5.4, clustered within a novel group comprising only uncultured sequences. This group, which is associated with the novel, deep-branching Acidobacterium capsulatum lineage, also included clones isolated during direct analysis of the same soil and from a wide range of other sample types studied elsewhere. The study demonstrates the value of fine-scale molecular analysis for identification of laboratory isolates and indicates the culturability of approximately 1% of the total population but under a restricted range of media and cultivation conditions.     

Identification of thermophilic and marine bacilli from shallow thermal vents by restriction analysis of their amplified 16S rDNA

AIMS: In order to identify 73 thermophilic isolates from shallow, marine thermal vents of Eolian Islands, we compared their restriction patterns of amplified 16S rDNA with those of nine well described Bacillus species and eight Eolian Bacillus strains. METHODS AND RESULTS: This study allowed to assign 57 (78%) isolates to different Bacillus species. Nineteen field strains were recognised as representatives of four described species, namely B. thermodenitrificans, "B. caldolyticus", B. vulcani and B. stearothermophilus. The profiles of 38 isolates matched instead, those of seven Eolian strains (B. thermodenitrificans strain A2, B. licheniformis strain B3-15, and five novel species, represented by Bacillus strain 1bw, Bacillus strain 4-1, Bacillus strain 5-2, Bacillus strain 10-1, Bacillus strain 1as). Among the 16 unidentified isolates, seven restriction patterns were recognised. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that restriction analysis of amplified 16S rDNA is useful for a rapid and reliable identification of strains belonging to described species as well as for recognition of new species. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This work revealed a high taxonomic diversity among the thermophilic bacilli isolated from Eolian Islands and a distinct distribution of the species within the Eolian hydrothermal vent system.     

Identification and molecular characterization of a novel Bacillus strain capable of degrading Tween-80

A Tween-80-degrading novel marine Bacillus strain, N10, has recently been isolated in Alexandria University, Egypt. The taxonomic position of this endospore forming bacterium was investigated on the basis of fatty acid analysis and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Comparative computer database analyses revealed that the bacterium is a Bacillus subtilis strain. The gene encoding the small acid-soluble protein gamma-type (SASP-B), sspE, was successfully utilized in this study as a tool for discrimination between the two B. subtilis subspecies W23 and 168. Based on the alignment of 16S rRNA sequences and analysis of SASP-B relatedness, it has been demonstrated that the novel marine B. subtilis strain N10 is more closely related to the B. subtilis reference strain W23 than to 168. The strain, N10, has been deposited in the Bacillus Genetic Stock Center (BGSC) and assigned the accession number 3A17.     

Suitability of partial 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequence analysis for the identification of dangerous bacterial pathogens

AIMS: In a bioterrorism event a rapid tool is needed to identify relevant dangerous bacteria. The aim of the study was to assess the usefulness of partial 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and the suitability of diverse databases for identifying dangerous bacterial pathogens. METHODS AND RESULTS: For rapid identification purposes a 500-bp fragment of the 16S rRNA gene of 28 isolates comprising Bacillus anthracis, Brucella melitensis, Burkholderia mallei, Burkholderia pseudomallei, Francisella tularensis, Yersinia pestis, and eight genus-related and unrelated control strains was amplified and sequenced. The obtained sequence data were submitted to three public and two commercial sequence databases for species identification. The most frequent reason for incorrect identification was the lack of the respective 16S rRNA gene sequences in the database. CONCLUSIONS: Sequence analysis of a 500-bp 16S rDNA fragment allows the rapid identification of dangerous bacterial species. However, for discrimination of closely related species sequencing of the entire 16S rRNA gene, additional sequencing of the 23S rRNA gene or sequencing of the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer is essential. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This work provides comprehensive information on the suitability of partial 16S rDNA analysis and diverse databases for rapid and accurate identification of dangerous bacterial pathogens.

Cellulose decomposition under nitrogen deficiency by bacteria isolated from the intestines of phytophagous vertebrates

A nitrogen-fixing strain identified as Klebsiella pneumonia 402-2 and two endoglucanase-synthesizing Bacillus strains were isolated from the intestines of phytophagous animals. One of the Bacillus strains was identified as Bacillus subtilis GL. Klebsiella pneumoniae 402-2 increased the endoglucanase activity of both Bacillus strains in mixed cultures. The data on the taxonomic position of strains 402-2 and GL and on the nitrogen-fixing capacity of strain 402-2 were confirmed by sequencing and analyzing their 16S rRNA genes and by amplifying the nitrogenase gene nifH.     

MALDI-TOFMS compared with other polyphasic taxonomy approaches for the identification and classification of Bacillus pumilus spores

To verify the efficacy of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) protein profiling for identifying and differentiating bacterial species, several strains of Bacillus pumilus were examined in a thorough taxonomic study incorporating a polyphasic approach. Sixteen isolates of putative B. pumilus isolated from spacecraft assembly facilities, the Mars Odyssey spacecraft, and the International Space Station, were characterized for their biochemical and molecular profiles using the Biolog system, DNA techniques, and MALDI-TOFMS protein profiling. MALDI-TOFMS protein profiling was more accurate than Biolog metabolic profiling, more discriminating than 16S rDNA sequence analysis, and complemented the results of gyrB sequence analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization for the identification of the B. pumilus spores. This is the first report whereby MALDI-TOFMS generated protein profiles from a set of microbes is compared directly with DNA-DNA hybridization yielding a positive correlation. Unique, cluster-specific biomarker peaks have been identified in the spores of the B. pumilus examined in this study. MALDI-TOFMS protein profiling is a rapid and simple analysis and has been demonstrated as a useful taxonomic tool for differentiating spores of the genus Bacillus. For practical purposes, it would be ideal (and necessary) to have a publicly available, standardized MALDI profile database, to facilitate the use of the technique as a diagnostic method to differentiate bacterial species.     

Characterization of Lactobacillus sake isolates from dry-cured sausages by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the 16S rRNA gene

Lactobacillus sake strains originally isolated from dry-fermented sausages were characterized by phenotypic and genotypic methods, including DNA-DNA hybridization, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), and 16S rDNA sequencing analysis, in order to establish their taxonomic position and relation to well defined reference species. Initially, isolates of Lact. sake showing a characteristic phenotype (melibiose-positive, maltose- and arabinose-negative) were identified by DNA-DNA hybridization. Subsequently, RFLP studies using Eco RI and Hin dIII as restriction enzymes, and cDNA from Escherichia coli or 16S rDNA from Lact. sake strains as probes, showed distinct polymorphism levels. Thus, Eco RI-digested DNA probed with cDNA from E. coli disclosed the presence of a unique cluster for the meat isolates tested, allowing their differentiation from the reference type strain. When Hin dIII-digested DNA was hybridized with the cDNA probe, strain-specific patterns were obtained, showing a higher discrimination power. Considerable strain differentiation was also observed when Eco RI and Hin dIII digests were hybridized with 16S rDNA probes. Finally, sequence analysis of the 16S rDNA from one isolate also revealed a certain degree of genetic variability with respect to the reference strain of Lact. sake .     

Phylogenetic characterization of a novel salt-tolerant Bacillus species: description of Bacillus dipsosauri sp. nov.

The taxonomic position of a novel halophilic endospore-forming bacterium previously isolated from a desert iguana was investigated by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Comparative sequence analyses showed the unidentified bacterium to be phylogenetically loosely associated with some other spore-forming ( Bacillus pantothenticus, Sporosarcina halophila ) and non-spore-forming ( Marinococcus albus ) halotolerant bacteria. Based on the phenotypic and phylogenetic distinctiveness of the unidentified bacterium, it is proposed that it is classified in the genus Bacillus as a new species, Bacillus dipsosauri.

Species Diversity and Substrate Utilization Patterns of Thermophilic Bacterial Communities in Hot Aerobic Poultry and Cattle Manure Composts

This study investigated the species diversity and substrate utilization patterns of culturable thermophilic bacterial communities in hot aerobic poultry and cattle manure composts by coupling 16S rDNA analysis with Biolog data. Based on the phylogenetic relationships of 16S rDNA sequences, 34 thermophilic (grown at 60 degrees C) bacteria isolated during aerobic composting of poultry manure and cattle manure were classified as Bacillus licheniformis, B. atrophaeus, Geobacillus stearothermophilus, G. thermodenitrificans, Brevibacillus thermoruber, Ureibacillus terrenus, U. thermosphaericus, and Paenibacillus cookii. In this study, B. atrophaeus, Br. thermoruber, and P. cookii were recorded for the first time in hot compost. Physiological profiles of these bacteria, obtained from the Biolog Gram-positive (GP) microplate system, were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA). All isolates were categorized into eight different PCA groups based on their substrate utilization patterns. The bacterial community from poultry manure compost comprised more divergent species (21 isolates, seven species) and utilized more diverse substrates (eight PCA groups) than that from cattle manure compost (13 isolates, five species, and four PCA groups). Many thermophilic bacteria isolated in this study could use a variety of carboxylic acids. Isolate B110 (from poultry manure compost), which is 97.6% similar to U. terrenus in its 16S rDNA sequence, possesses particularly high activity in utilizing a broad spectrum of substrates. This isolate may have potential applications in industry.
