Aims:  To identify the bacterial and archaeal composition in a mesophilic biogas digester treating pig manure and to compare the consistency of two 16S rDNA-based methods to investigate the microbial structure.
Methods and results:  Sixty-nine bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTU) and 25 archaeal OTU were identified by sequencing two 16S rDNA clone libraries. Most bacterial OTU were identified as phyla of Firmicutes (47·2% of total clones), Bacteroides (35·4%) and Spirochaetes (13·2%). Methanoculleus bourgensis (29·0%), Methanosarcina barkeri (27·4%) and Methanospirillum hungatei (10·8%) were the dominant methanogens. Only 9% of bacterial and 20% of archaeal OTU matched cultured isolates at a similarity index of ≥97%. About 78% of the dominant bacterial (with abundance >3%) and 83% of archaeal OTU were recovered from the denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) bands of V3 regions in 16S rDNAs.
Conclusions:  In the digester, most bacterial and archaeal species were uncultured; bacteria belonging to Firmicutes , Bacteroides and Spirochaetes seem to take charge of cellulolysis, proteolysis, acidogenesis, sulfur-reducing and homoacetogenesis; the most methanogens were typical hydrogenotrophic or hydrogenotrophic/aceticlastic; DGGE profiles reflected the dominant microbiota.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  This study gave a first insight of the overall microbial structure in a rural biogas digester and also indicated DGGE was useful in displaying its dominant microbiota.  相似文献

DNA in a denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) band that could not be sequenced after recovery from the gel was cloned into a TA cloning vector and a library was constructed and then 13 clones randomly picked up from the library was sequenced. Although the excised DNA from the DGGE gel showed a single band, the library consisted of several different sequences phylogenetically. This phenomenon was also observed in several other DGGE bands. Therefore, this suggests that a single DGGE band does not always represent a single bacterial strain and a new bias for quantitative analyses based on band intensities has been identified.  相似文献

To study differences in bacterial assemblages among sites with different environmental conditions, sediment samples were collected from three sites along a South Carolina (U.S.A.) coastalplain stream with varying levels of anthropogenic perturbation. The objective of this study was to compare the bacterial assemblages among these sites to detect possible impacts from the disturbance. To accomplish this comparison, DNA was extracted from the samples and subjected to the polymerase chain reaction using primers designed to amplify bacterial 16S rRNA genes. Relative measures of bacterial genetic diversity, assessed using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), revealed greater numbers of unique sequences at the disturbed sites. The number of bands, which is analogous to species richness, did not vary predictably among sites. Similarity indices revealed a high level of similarity among replicate samples from each site and low similarity between samples from different sites. This study demonstrated that bacterial assemblages differed among sites and that the presence or absence of certain species, represented by unique DGGE bands, differed among sites; unique bands were most commonly encountered at the disturbed sites. Based on the evidence gathered, we conclude that benthic bacterial assemblages vary longitudinally and that anthropogenic disturbance may alter the bacterial component of streams.  相似文献

Lake Suigetsu is a typical meromictic lake in Japan characterized by a permanent chemocline at a depth of between 3 and 8 m separating the oxic freshwater mixolimnion from anoxic saline sulfidogenic monimolimnion. Dominant bacterioplankton populations in Lake Suigetsu were investigated using PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of 16S rRNA gene fragments. The bacterial population was vertically stratified, and temporal shifts in the microbial communities were observed in both the oxic and anoxic layers of Lake Suigetsu during the sampling period. Several dominant DGGE bands were excised and sequenced. In the chemocline, green sulfur bacteria phylogenetically related to the genera Prosthecochloris, Pelodyctyon, and Chlorobium within the phylum Chlorobi were dominant; the colorless sulfur bacteria closely related to the genus Thiomicrospira were detected. These sulfur bacterial groups appear to be important in the biogeochemical cycling of sulfur and/or carbon in Lake Suigetsu. Bacterial sequences affiliated with the Bacteroidetes phylum were frequent among the dominant fragments in the DGGE profiles throughout the water column. Populations possessing a fermentative metabolism exist in Bacteroidetes, suggesting they may contribute to the degradation of organic matter in the anoxic environment of Lake Suigetsu.  相似文献

The phylogenetic composition of a bacterial community from a hypertrophic freshwater lake in China was investigated by sequencing cloned 16S rRNA genes. Three hundred and thirty-six bacterial clones from four clone libraries in different months (March, May, July and September in 2004) were classified into 142 operational taxonomic units, most of which were affiliated with bacterial divisions commonly found in freshwater ecosystem, e.g. Alpha-, Beta-, Gamma- and Deltaproteobacteria, Bacteriodetes and Actinobacteria. The results showed that the composition of bacterial community in the July library was the most diverse one. Actinobacteria was the most significant lineage in Lake Taihu, with dominant numbers of operational taxonomic units in the May, July and September libraries. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that 53 sequences were grouped into six novel clusters which may represent specific populations indigenous to the environment. Coverage analyses indicated that the clone libraries could provide a fine inventory of bacterial diversity in the lake.  相似文献

AIMS: We aimed to systematically understand the composting processes by a comparison of microbial communities during four full-scale composting processes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Microbial communities during the four different full-scale composting processes were analysed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis combined with measurement of physicochemical parameters. Two composting processes utilized sewage sludge and two utilized food-waste. Comparison of the four processes indicated that the concentration of dissolved organic carbon was higher in the food-waste-composting than in the sewage-sludge-composting processes, and microbial communities varied with composting substrate. The tendency for different microbes to appear in the composting process with different concentrations of dissolved organic carbon agreed with a previous study that showed that microbial succession occurred with a decrease in dissolved organic carbon in a laboratory-scale food-waste-composting process. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggested that the main factor affecting microbial communities in the composting process is the concentration of dissolved organic materials. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: In addition to studying microbial communities involved in composting, this research is also the first to study composting mechanisms using molecular methods. The results of our studies may be helpful in the design and management of composting processes.  相似文献

太湖有机聚集体上附着细菌群落结构与动态的T-RFLP分析   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

有机聚集体(organic aggregates),是指由浮游动(植)物的残体、粪便颗粒及各种有机碎屑、活的自养及异养微生物以及无机颗粒等由于物理的、化学的或生物的作用聚集而成的颗粒物。人们对水生态系统中有机聚集体的认识始于20世纪50年代的海洋学研究。细菌是有机聚集体最重要的组成部分之一。有机聚集体在水体中物质与能量循环中的作用很大程度上是靠附着其上的异养细菌而起作用的。目前,有机聚集体的概念在水生态系统中已被广泛接受,由于其独特的物理、化学及生物组成,以及复杂的形成、转化过程,使其在水生态系统中具有重要的生态学作用。然而,有关浅水湖泊中有机聚集体上细菌群落的研究目前尚未见报道。近年来,基于DNA多聚酶链式反应(PCR)的末端限制性片段长度多态性(T-RFLP)技术是一种新兴的研究微生物多态性的分子生物学方法。该技术由于具有快捷、高分辨率、高通量和不依赖于培养等优点而被广泛应用于微生物群落结构的时空演替研究。本研究采用T-RFLP技术,研究了太湖梁溪河入湖河口(Site A)和贡湖湾(Site B)2006年6月至2007年5月一年间有机聚集体上附着细菌群落组成的时空变化规律。T-RFLP分析检测到这两个采样点共有187个独特的末端限制性片段(T-RFs),月平均T-RFs分别42.7和44.9。t 检验显示它们没有显著性差异(P>0.05)。虽然河口的营养盐浓度要显著高于贡湖湾(P<0.01),T-RFLP 结果表明,太湖中营养盐的浓度已经不是有机聚集体上附着细菌多样性的限制因子。聚类分析显示,除了春季外,河口和贡湖湾有机聚集体上细菌群落结构有明显的不同。在T-RFLP分析附着细菌群落组成及季节变化的基础上,采用多元统计方法研究环境因子与附着细菌群落组成变化的相关性。典型对应分析(CCA)结果表明诸多环境因子中,DIP、DIN 和水温与有机聚集体上细菌群落结构的变化具有显著的相关性 (P<0.05)。  相似文献

This study characterizes the colonization and composition of bacterial flora in dwarf Asian honeybee (Apis florea) larvae and compares bacterial diversity and distribution among different sampling locations. A. florea larvae were collected from 3 locations in Chiang Mai province, Thailand. Bacterial DNA was extracted from each larva using the phenol–chloroform method. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis was performed, and the dominant bands were excised from the gels, cloned, and sequenced for bacterial species identification. The result revealed similarities of bacterial community profiles in each individual colony, but differences between colonies from the same and different locations. A. florea larvae harbor bacteria belonging to 2 phyla (Firmicutes and Proteobacteria), 5 classes (Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Bacilli, and Clostridia), 6 genera (Clostridium, Gilliamella, Melissococcus, Lactobacillus, Saccharibacter, and Snodgrassella), and an unknown genus from uncultured bacterial species. The classes with the highest abundance of bacteria were Alphaproteobacteria (34%), Bacilli (25%), Betaproteobacteria (11%), Gammaproteobacteria (10%), and Clostridia (8%), respectively. Similarly, uncultured bacterial species were identified (12%). Environmental bacterial species, such as Saccharibacter floricola, were also found. This is the first study in which sequences closely related to Melissococcus plutonius, the causal pathogen responsible for European foulbrood, have been identified in Thai A. florea larvae.  相似文献

Biohydrogen production has been concerned ex-tremely as a new technology of energy resource pro-duction by many scientists[1—4]. Enhancement of hy-drogen production efficiency and cutting down the operating cost are very important problems, which are the limiting factors for the industrialization of hydro-gen production process.

To study the structure of microbial communities in the biological hydrogen production reactor and determine the ecological function of hydrogen producing bacteria, anaerobic sludge was obtained from the continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) in different periods of time, and the diversity and dynamics of microbial communities were investigated by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). The results of DGGE demonstrated that an obvious shift of microbial population happened from the beginning of star-up to the 28th day, and the ethanol type fermentation was established. After 28 days the structure of microbial community became stable, and the climax community was formed. Comparative analysis of 16S rDNA sequences from reamplifying and sequencing the prominent bands indicated that the dominant population belonged to low G+C Gram-positive bacteria (Clostridium sp. andEthanologenbacterium sp.), β-proteobacteria (Acidovorax sp.), γ-proteobacteria (Kluyvera sp.), Bacteroides (uncultured bacterium SJA-168), and Spirochaetes (uncultured eubacterium E1-K13), respectively. The hydrogen production rate increased obviously with the increase ofEthanologenbacterium sp.,Clostridium sp. and uncultured Spirochaetes after 21 days, meanwhile the succession of ethanol type fermentation was formed. Throughout the succession the microbial diversity increased however it decreased after 21 days. Some types ofClostridium sp.Acidovorax sp.,Kluyvera sp., and Bacteroides were dominant populations during all periods of time. These special populations were essential for the construction of climax community. Hydrogen production efficiency was dependent on both hydrogen producing bacteria and other populations. It implied that the cometabolism of microbial community played a great role of biohydrogen production in the reactors.  相似文献

In this study,PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) was applied to analyze the microbial communities in lake sediments from Lake Xuanwu,Lake Mochou in Nanjing and Lake Taihu in Wuxi.Sediment samples from seven locations in three lakes were collected and their genomic DNAs were extracted.The DNA yields of the sediments of Lake Xuanwu and Lake Mochou were high (10 μg/g),while that of sediments in Lake Taihu was relatively low.After DNA purification,the 16S rDNA genes (V3 to V5 region) were amplified and the amplified DNA fragments were separated by parallel DGGE.The DGGE profiles showed that there were five common bands in all the lake sediment samples indicating that there were similarities among the populations of microorganisms in all the lake sediments.The DGGE profiles of Lake Xuanwu and Lake Mochou were similar and about 20 types of micro-organisms were identified in the sediment samples of both lakes.These results suggest that the sediment samples of these two city lakes (Xuanwu,Mochou) have similar microbial communities.However,the DGGE profiles of sediment samples in Lake Taihu were significantly differ-ent from these two lakes.Furthermore,the DGGE pro-files of sediment samples in different locations in Lake Taihu were also different,suggesting that the microbial communities in Lake Taihu are more diversified than those in Lake Xuanwu and Lake Mochou.The differences in microbial diversity may be caused by the different environmental conditions,such as redox potential,pH,and the concentrations of organic matters.Seven major bands of 16S rDNA genes fragments from the DGGE profiles of sediment samples were further re-amplified and sequenced.The results of sequencing analysis indicate that five sequences shared 99%-100% homology with known sequences (Bacillus and Brevibacillus,uncultured bacteria),while the other two sequences shared 93%-96% homology with known sequences (Acinetobacter,and Bacillus).The study shows that the PCR-DGGE tech-nique combined with sequence analysis is a feasible and efficient method for the determination of microbial com-munities in sediment samples.  相似文献

The DGGE profiles of Lake Xuanwu and Lake Mochou were similar and about 20 types of microorganisms were identified in the sediment samples of both lakes. These results suggest that the sediment samples of these two city lakes (Xuanwu, Mochou) have similar microbial communities. However, the DGGE profiles of sediment samples in Lake Taihu were significantly different from these two lakes. Furthermore, the DGGE profiles of sediment samples in different locations in Lake Taihu were also different, suggesting that the microbial communities in Lake Taihu are more diversified than those in Lake Xuanwu and Lake Mochou. The differences in microbial diversity may be caused by the different environmental conditions, such as redox potential, pH, and the concentrations of organic matters. Seven major bands of 16S rDNA genes fragments from the DGGE profiles of sediment samples were further re-amplified and sequenced. The results of sequencing analysis indicate that five sequences shared 99%–100% homology with known sequences (Bacillus and Brevibacillus, uncultured bacteria), while the other two sequences shared 93%–96% homology with known sequences (Acinetobacter, and Bacillus). The study shows that the PCR-DGGE technique combined with sequence analysis is a feasible and efficient method for the determination of microbial communities in sediment samples. __________ Translated from Acta Ecologica Sinica, 2006, 26(11): 3610–3616 [译自: 生态学报]  相似文献

变性梯度凝胶电泳(DGGE)在微生物生态学中的应用   总被引:44,自引:3,他引:44  
由于从环境样品中分离和培养细菌的困难,分子生物学方法已发展用来描述和鉴定微生物群落。近年来基于DNA方法的群落分析得到了迅速的发展,如PCR扩增技术,克隆文库法,荧光原位杂交法,限制性酶切片段长度多态性法,变性和温度梯度凝胶电泳法。DGGE已广泛用于分析自然环境中细菌、蓝细菌,古菌、微微型真核生物、真核生物和病毒群落的生物多样性。这一技术能够提供群落中优势种类信息和同时分析多个样品。具有可重复和容易操作等特点,适合于调查种群的时空变化,并且可通过对切下的带进行序列分析或与特异性探针杂交分析鉴定群落成员。DGGE分析微生物群落的一般步骤如下:一是核酸的提取,二是16S rRNA,18S rRNA或功能基因如可容性甲烷加单氧酶羟化酶基因(mmoX)和氨加单氧酶a一亚单位基因(amoA)片段的扩增,三是通过DGGE分析PCR产物。DGGE使用具有化学变性剂梯度的聚丙烯酰胺凝胶,该凝胶能够有区别的解链PCR扩增产物。由PCR产生的不同的DNA片段长度相同但核苷酸序列不同。因此不同的双链DNA片段由于沿着化学梯度的不同解链行为将在凝胶的不同位置上停止迁移。DNA解链行为的不同导致一个凝胶带图案,该图案是微生物群落中主要种类的一个轮廓。DGGE使用所有生物中保守的基因片段如细菌中的16S rRNA基因片段和真菌中的18S rRNA基因片段。然而同其他分子生物学方法一样,DGGE也有缺陷,其中之一是只能分离较小的片段,使用于系统发育分析比较和探针设计的序列信息量受到了限制。在某些情况下,由于所用基因的多拷贝导致一个种类多于一条带,因此不易鉴定群落结构到种的水平。此外,该技术具有内在的如单一细菌种类16S rDNA拷贝之间的异质性问题,可导致自然群落中微生物数量的过多估计。DGGE是分析微生物群落的一种有力的工具。不过为了减少DGGE和其它技术的缺陷,建议研究者结合DGGE和其它分子及微生物学方法以便更详细的观察微生物的群落结构和功能。  相似文献

Based on experiments of periphyte response to different trophic levels and their impact on macrophyte production, it was found that the periphyte biomass increased with the nutrient concentrations. Increased trophic level and periphyte biomass resulted in decreased macrophyte photosynthesis. It was suggested that the periphytes could cause resilience and hysteresis in the system shifts between macrophyte and phytoplankton domination. Other factors, such as fish farming, storm induced waves and mechanical destruction, and high water levels could be the perturbations during the system shifts, but these are not the key factors. Instead, the nutrient loading and periphyte abundance could determine the shift in lake ecosystem between macrophyte and phytoplankton domination. This finding could theoretically elucidate the mechanism of ecosystem shifts between macrophyte and phytoplankton domination.  相似文献

Vertical distribution of bacterial community structure was investigated in the sediments of two eutrophic lakes of China, Lake Taihu and Lake Xuanwu. Profiles of bacterial communities were generated using a molecular fingerprinting technique, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) followed by DNA sequence analysis, and the results were interpreted with multivariate statistical analysis. To assess changes in the genetic diversity of bacterial communities with changing depth, DGGE banding patterns were analysed by cluster analysis. Distinct clusters were recognized in different sampling stations of Lake Taihu. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) was carried out to infer the relationship between environmental variables and bacterial community structure. DGGE samples collected at the same sampling site clustered together in both lakes. Total phosphorus, organic matter and pH were considered to be the key factors driving the changes in bacterial community composition.  相似文献
