Complete sequence of three plasmids from Bacillus thuringiensis INTA-FR7-4 environmental isolate and comparison with related plasmids from the Bacillus cereus group

Bacillus thuringiensis is an insect pathogen used worldwide as a bioinsecticide. It belongs to the Bacillus cereus sensu lato group as well as Bacillus anthracis and B. cereus. Plasmids from this group of organisms have been implicated in pathogenicity as they carry the genes responsible for different types of diseases that affect mammals and insects. Some plasmids, like pAW63 and pBT9727, encode a functional conjugation machinery allowing them to be transferred to a recipient cell. They also share extensive homology with the non-functional conjugation apparatus of pXO2 from B. anthracis. In this study we report the complete sequence of three plasmids from an environmental B. thuringiensis isolate from Argentina, obtained by a shotgun sequencing method. We obtained the complete nucleotide sequence of plasmids pFR12 (12 095 bp), pFR12.5 (12 459 bp) and pFR55 (55 712 bp) from B. thuringiensis INTA-FR7-4. pFR12 and pFR12.5 were classified as cryptic as they do not code for any obvious functions besides replication and mobilization. Both small plasmids were classified as RCR plasmids due to similarities with the replicases they encode. Plasmid pFR55 showed a structural organization similar to that observed for plasmids pAW63, pBT9727 and pXO2. pFR55 also shares a tra region with these plasmids, containing genes related to T4SS and conjugation. A comparison between pFR55 and conjugative plasmids led to the postulation that pFR55 is a conjugative plasmid. Genes related to replication functions in pFR55 are different to those described for plasmids with known complete sequences. pFR55 is the first completely sequenced plasmid with a replication machinery related to that of ori44. The analysis of the complete sequence of plasmids from an environmental isolate of B. thuringiensis permitted the identification of a near complete conjugation apparatus in pFR55, resembling those of plasmids pAW63, pBT9727 and pXO2. The availability of this sequence is a step forward in the study of the molecular basis of the conjugative process in Gram positive bacteria, particularly due to the similarity with known conjugation systems. It is also a contribution to the expansion of the non-pathogenic B. cereus plasmid gene pool.     

Investigation of the cyt gene in Bacillus thuringiensis and the biological activities of Bt isolates from the soil of China

The presence of cyt genes was investigated in 80 type strains of Bacillus thuringiensis and 143 isolates obtained from soil samples of China by PCR amplification using two pairs of primers for the cyt1 and cyt2 genes. Three type strains of serotypes H11ac, H14 and H36, eight isolates belonging to H3, H14, H18 and H21, and one isolate of unknown serotype harbored cyt genes. We also tested the cytolytic activity for mammal cells, the hemolytic activity for sheep erythrocytes and insecticidal activity against mosquitoes of five isolates that contained cyt genes but did not belong to B. thuringiensis serovar israelensis. The protein profiles of the five isolates were different from those of the type strains of B. thuringiensis serovar israelensis, and among the five isolates, only Y-5 showed mosquitocidal activity against larvae of Culex quinquefasciatus. All five of the isolates exhibited hemolytic activity, but only three could cause the cell death of A549 cells. The cytopathological changes induced by NX-4 in some A549 cells were characterized with cell-ballooning.     

Diversity of Bacillus thuringiensis strains from soil in China and their pesticidal activities

A large number of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) isolates have been obtained from soil samples in China. The flagellar antigen serotypes, cry genes and crystal proteins of 570 Bt isolates were determined, and the pesticidal activity was assayed against the insects, Plutella xylostella, Heliothis armigera, Phaedon brassicae and Locusta migratoria manilensis, and the snail, Oncomelania hupensis. The results indicated that the Bt isolates were distributed within 35 H-serotypes, in which isolates of H3 were the most abundant (20%) followed by H5 (13%), H7 (9%) and H4 (8.7%), whereas isolates of other H-serotypes were less than 6%. The percentage of isolates containing the genes cry1Ac, cry1Aa/cry1Ac, cry1Aa/cry1Ac/cry1Ab, and cry1Aa/cry1Ac/cry1C was 14.7%, 6.6%, 5.6%, and 7.0%, respectively, while 265 isolates, representing 46.5% of the 570 Bt isolates, did not show any amplification product for the genes cry1Aa, cry1Ac, cry1C, cry2, cry3, cry4, cry7Aa. Some of the 570 Bt isolates caused high mortality of the assayed pests with 14.9%, 6%, 1.6%, 1.1%, and 0.2% of the isolates killing more than 90% of P. xylostella, H. armigera, P. brassicae, O. hupensis, and L. migratoria manilensis, respectively. The remaining 76.2% of the 570 isolates caused no mortality or less than 90% mortality against the tested insect and snail species.
